I am selling a 50-inch Pioneer HDTV (PDP-507XA) that would make a great upgrade to an existing home theatre setup. This particular TV does not have the optional speakers and comes with the wall mounts. The side speakers and stand are available via electronics retailers should you require them. The specifications and photo are listed below. Price for the TV: 600 CHF

Also, I have a Harman Kardan DVD-22 player for sale for 70 CHF. Specifications and photo shown below.

Both include original remote controls and are available for pick-up in Lausanne...please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Hi
additional questions are:
Is this a HD-Ready TV? Your specs stated only this.

How old is it?

Did you know that HD-ready TVs are very cheap in Interdiscounts, Mediamarkt, and many are out of production, meaning no parts? I returned one just 12 months ago, it was 499chf for 52 inch Panasonic. The advert said "HD" but I did not know it, until I installed it and then repacked it back.

Another swiss pal here wanted to GIFT me his 3-yr old Samsung 48inch Full HD LCD TV, because no one wanted to buy it, not even 100chf.

I am neutral, just wanted to ask if it was just a HD-Ready TV, big screen yes but no Full HD?

Thank you for your questions!
Yes, it's HD-ready as the specifications sheet states. I've had the TV for 18 months and it was purchased new 2 years ago.

So without any additional speakers there would be no sound. Just trying to figure this out. Thanks!

Please do not PM me to tell me to shut up and never post on your posts. You don't own this forum, do you?
This is a public forum for all users here to comment and ask valid questions.

I pointed out valid points to consider before buying.

IMHO, a HD-ready TV is not worth buying nowadays unless it is special or dirt-cheap.
A plasma TV has an allegedly shorter lifespan due to the heating element, etc.

for 600 bucks you get a full hd 50" tv at conforama http://www.conforama.ch/produit___23...0051_10601_-16

it seems quite good, im thinking of getting one, what do you think ?

OMG! Thanks for the conforama link!

DVD sold...Many thanks EF!

TV price now 300 CHF...

300chf?
If you did not PM me with your angry tone ( second time today), I could have assisted you. Good luck.

It was only in response to yours...Have a great day!

TV still available...

Just to say: pioneer plasmas are in fact amonst the finest in the business and useful also as AV presentation tools if anyone was in need as such. Even 'tho other brands and LEDs are about the actually display qualitys aren't really comparable. As long as the resolution is sufficient for a users' need the quality and contrast ratios are amazing, this is why new pioneer displays cost thousands.

Unfortunately I don't have a need for another Plasma but good luck with the sale

Hi, been thinking about replacing my old tv and it looks like you might have the answer

I assume it is out of warranty?

Thanks

The two year warrantee has expired. PM me if you'd like to know anything else about the TV...Thanks!

People like you should 'get a life' and stop interfering in other people's threads. The EF is full of people like you who are obviously so bored and so un-interesting that they have to comment on everything.
BTW - I came across this thread because I am actually looking for a TV and searched threads with TV in it.

You on the other hand had no interest in buying a TV but thought it your 'duty' to interfere. It's really quite sad and I feel very sorry for you

Actually I think 'A plasma TV has an allegedly shorter lifespan due to the heating element, etc.' is important info for potential buyers, I got burned buying a plasma a couple of years ago. The sales rep said it would last 15 years and just after the guaranty ran out I started having issues, speckles of red and green getting worse and worse

According to articles that I have read the shorter lifespan problem has mostly been rectified from 2005ish onwards due to better energy manegement technologies. I guess i'll find out

TV sold...thanks EF!

Mods, could you please close the posting...thank you.
