"Blaze TV tuner"

Well i've just received an email from Simplygames, selling the Blaze GBA TV tuner for £10.99. Just wondering if anyone has one of these? Or heard anything good/bad about them. Thanks...

GS were giving £20 trade in for it, but now,

Really sorry about this, but e-mails were sent throughout all the GS stores, and they aren't allowed to take them now.

Never understood the point of it. Yeah it's cool that you have t.v on a small screen, but so what!!!??? Just go out and buy and proper t.v

how much do they give you for it? do they give more if its sealed? how much could you get for it on Ebay? is it worth it?

Now that sounds like a plan, how much would you be looking at if you part exchanged it?

I bought one and it works well, it is a bit bulky but for £11 including AV input lead and power adaptor, what do you expect.

Been told you get more than that if you take it into Gamestation and part exchange it :)

God they are still £60 here, saw them for £25 on gameplay.com also.

I swear that TV Tuner is just as bulky, if not bulkier, than an actual portable TV.

Still, it's a nice idea. Shame it doesn't work very well in cars though...

Yup but last time i checked they seemed to have very few Cube games, but that may have been in february when the catalogue was being updated etc.

I remember when they were trying to sell them for £60

Then the SP came out.

I wouldn't bother with it myself. A cheap handheld TV is much better.

Simplygames are up and running?????

Well I had a Blaze FM GBA radio tuner and that never worked.. I can only think a TV one would be worse.

If your that worried about a portable TV, pay a little more and get a proper one.
