shock! horror! tried to turn my tv on tonight and it failed, meaning i have nothing in the background when i am up working long nights on the internet. this can't go on. where can i find a cheap tv? it doesn't have to be great- the one i have now is a 13" Di-Star. as long as the picture is halfway decent and it turns on i am happy.

get on the ferry sharpish to samui,tecos or homemart...buy for little baht

well i would rather not... i know there must be a decent tv shop here?!

The LG shop on the main Hadrin road out of Thong Sala--they also have the solar powered hot water heaters on the roof. It has a big LG sign out front, it also has another name but I can't remember, sorry. They sell fridges and ac units as well as some pretty decent brands of TVs. If you are going to Thong Sala it is after the girly bars, opposite the Blue Bar and Orawarn Resort.

thanks! got one there

No problem

Thats OK untill its goes wrong, then it ends up costing more baht as I have discovered on two occasions once when I had to trudge all the way back to Tesco from Koh Pha Ngan with a TV that was 500 baht cheaper on Samui, and on another occasion when I had to send a new motorbike back to Suartthani, after the elctric start failed, I had only saved 2000 baht by buying on the mainland.

I found out this the hard way, I now shop locally for motorbikes and electrical goods, and have no worries when they go wrong,

But as sods law would have it since buying locally nothing has gone wrong.
