TL;DR version: Shop send new tv, I check used time 225 hours. I don't know how realistic is 225hours for a new unit, but to me, I think 225 hours is too much. So I suspect it to be display/used unit. Maybe someone can help me with this?

Thanks for the info. I'll try do more research into this. 225 hours is probably 30 days if 8hours average a day.
It's my dad that's making a fuss out of this after I check the used time. He's the one paying for it after all. |

Is the TV model new? It could be in the showroom for more than 30 days if the shop only demo'ed the TV when requested by customers. Let's say the demo time was 2 hours daily, it would be well over 3 months. If I were to buy from the shop and they had been honest to me, I wouldn't mind to take it. But it's very obvious the TV wasn't brand new and the shop claimed otherwise. If I'm in your position I will definitely make a fuss.

The time I visited the shop, all the TVs in the shop was off, for whatever reason. They only turn on when requested.
New observation I've made, there is only an English Manual. As in, 1 book, all of it in English. My experience with these stuff is that they usually print loads of languages and load them in. Whether reliable or not, I was told the shop took in this model about 1 - 2 months ago. Maybe this is a return unit? This post has been edited by kaiserreich: Sep 14 2010, 02:31 AM |
