RE: TECHTRONICS
I`m glad you haven`t had any bother yet Neil but as you can tell I am raging with techtronics. I`m sure you will be when you have to fork out another £23.50 for posting your dvd player back if it breaks down, waiting in all day for someone to collect it when you could`ve whipped it down the town or had someone collect it at your door for free. I have read alot of complaints about them taking money off your credit card and taking months to refund it and people have gone to trading standards about them.
Good Luck

RE: TECHTRONICS
thank you for your reply 42%er. No I don`t suggest you send anything in "plaggy bags" as I said I am afraid that if the product gets damaged they will say I haven`t used the "original packaging" which does not mean I wont be using a box, of course I will be, but it wont be the original box. It is very inconvenient posting out my dvd player to be fixed paying a carriage charge for the privelege of waiting in all day for someone to collect it when I could`ve purchased it locally and then taken it back to the shop. I suggest traders online should be footing the cost for returns, high street shops are obviously superior especially when alot of people want to examine the goods prior to purchase. I think if online shopping is to be a success they should eat humble pie if their product goes wrong and pay for the carriage and not charge it at the expense of the consumer.
The Guru, Universal pictures wont play
This and Back to the future triology also by universal pictures aren`t allowing me to select the dts option in the menu`s, also in the Guru the scene selection menu comes up and jumps back to the "Homepage" does anyone else have a problem like this? I don`t know if the problem is with my dvd player but techtronics.com want £23.50 to send it back to have a look at (under guarantee) wish I had gone to a local retailer like comet, they would`ve checked it and uplifted it for free.

RE: JVC THA5R - Skipping on CD-R Music CDs
I can`t say I have experienced this problem but I have had bother with Back to the future trilogy and the Guru which wont select the dts menu for me to choose that option, it skips back to the "homepage" if u like. Can you tell me if yours does this please, I noticed that both of them are made by universal pictures. I got the dvd player from techtronics.com and they want £23.50 for a courier to pick it up, I`m sure you know that Comet would come and pick yours up free of charge to look at, don`t shop online at techtronics, spread the word!! Cheers

RE: Can Anyone verify this? Tosh 220E being replaced?
I wouldn`t recomment techtronics, I`ve had bad dealings with them.
TECHTRONICS
I purchased my dvd player off the net with techtronics at the beginning of september last year and until now praised them up to the highest heavens. I told friends to go to them but wont do any more. My JVC TH A5R wont play certain dts dvd`s such as back to the future trilogy and recently the Guru, techtronics are happy to look at the player but will charge me £23.50 to post it back to them!! An abrupt lady on the phone said it`s in the terms and conditions which i must`ve overlooked. One just assumes that if you go to a shop to purchase something and it has a fault you can get it back to them to be looked at free of charge. Curry`s, Comet to name a few will send a driver to your door and take it away free of charge, AND LEAVE A LOAN!!! I thought a guarantee meant that a company assures you that product will work if it doesn`t then they are responsible and will put it right, but in this case at the expense to the customer, don`t know how they get away with it. They also want the original packaging, like anyone keeps all the boxes to the household stuff they own so now I`m frightened of sending it back incase it gets damaged and they accuse me of not packaging it properly. I wish I had investigated the company and will seek advice off Trading Standards, this is the 3rd time a company has conned me and it wont happen again. DO NOT TRADE WITH TECHTRONICS is my advice.
