Page 1 of Is the AV sender on scan.co.uk today any good?

Does anyone have any experience of this unit? I want to hook up my video, dvd and playstation to the same telly (1 scart), and is this device the best way to do it, or should I just stick to a basic scart splitter?
Thanks for any help in advance.

We will send dan bates at reviewer 1 for review.Not sure how good it is since we only recieved them friday.We will hold the price for you but if you want to order just mention "quoted by nilesh" and you will get that price anytime.

Cheers fella. I`d still like to know whether or not it`s the right thing for me. Should I just get a simple splitter (from eg Argos for a tenner(ish)) or is this thing a better bet for connecting multiple scarts to a single scarted tv?
Cheers again.

Nelley,

I have been emailing you for days - could you give me a shout please

I can`t tell you if its any good
but whatever you do DON`T buy anything from this bunch of robbing, cheating, lying, scumbags.

If you are lucky, you may get what you ordered and it may work - fine

otherwise you can kiss goodbye to your hard earned cash, cos you won`t get anything back of them.

They cheated me into returning my failed purchase and then kept both the goods and the money - never got a thing back (even tho` RMA was quoted). No replies to e-mails, nowt.

I am far from being the only one in this predicament. Read the forums widely and learn.

The gamble, as they say, is yours!!!
Be warned.

FWIW - since this farce I have learned that scam/scum.co.uk are never the best price anyway.

If you have an rma number you either get a refund,replacement parts or
your original parts back as a no fault found.You cannot accuse us of anything until we know the full story so an rma number wouild be helpful
so we can look into it a bit further.

What did you do about this Bill?

I`ve just posted a similar query - want to connect VCR, DVD and Satellite and X Box to TV - do the ones from Argos maintain RGB if connected to the RGB AV1 socket?

What did you end up buying and how is it?

Still haven`t bought anything yet. Was waiting for more feedback. The Argos splitters have been mentioned before, but no-one seems to know (or want to say) what is best. My parents have the Argos manual splitter - you have to press buttons to select the input - which is ok, but not sure if it does rgb or not. I saw that beyondhifi have one too, but I had a very unsatsifactory dealing with them before and wouldn`t want to deal with them again - despite what clayts and others have said about them. I think Maplin do a splitter too, but its £14 if I remember rightly, but i`m not sure if they still do. I`ve not been in too big a hurry to sort this, coz I can get away with daisy-chaining my video & dvd, but then I can`t use my playstation through scart, which is a pain.

It would be really great if anyone who`s got experience of a scart splitter could recommend one here. Please?

Just one final point - Scan are ok. Not the best in the world, but neither are they the worst. Generally speaking, if you want a response out of any company its best to ring AND email them. And if problems occur write a letter.

Cheers

Bill if you search the Hardware forum on www.officialxboxmagazine.co.uk i seem to remember someone saying that they had bought one of the argos ones and it was fine.

I can`t do it as our firewall wont let me look at the site. If you find anything let me know.
