£200 eco cash back on Samsung UE40B8000 - dodgy?

[admin_exported]

Hi.

It looks like you can get £200 eco cash back when buying the Samsung UE40B8000 TV from cheapelectricals.co.uk from 1st October. Which currently works out at £1092.91. I got the impression this looks like an official Samsung offer, but I haven't seen any other retailer offer it. Is this dodgy? I've done a search on this forum and I see other people have successfully received orders from them before...

Thanks.

Maybe it's a promotion Samsung hasn't launched yet, given the October 1st date, and this etailer has jumped the gun. Will endeavour to find out on Monday...

Any update on this, Andrew?

Nothing as yet, no...

I notice Samsung's website has a new microsite about Eco TV, so maybe there is something in it - the TV they show there doesn't look like the LED range though.

I am still awaiting a reply from Samsung...

So there you have it - official offer, and I gather a dedicated website due to go live later today. Will bring you more details when we have them...
