Here are some examples from the FAQ on their web site.
Q. Are these screens cheaper quality?
A. No. They just cost less. They use almost identical parts to those that you
see in the big superstores priced at Ł2500 to Ł3500. The panels are the same
as
the panels used by many top brand screens. We are cheaper because of the 3
reasons above.
Q. Where are these screens made?
A. The Plasma panels are made by Samsung and LG in Korea or Matsushita
(Panasonic parent) in Japan. The Motherboards are made in the Far East. Final
assembly of product is in Burnley at Tiny.coms Group Factory.
To my mind the above implies that buying from Tiny you will get the same
quality
as a current Samsung or Panasonic model but at a much cheaper price.
