Spot-ontv are a local family business which have been trading on the same site for over 120 years, we know every customer is special and thats why we are always on hand to offer help and unbiased advice on that exciting new purchase. Lets face it us internet shoppers want our new shiny things straight after we've hit the pay now button and thats what we aim to do. All in stock items are usually delivered within 2 working days and we email to let you know when its left us. We have teamed up with Sagepay to offer added security to you on your new purchase, we also now offer Paypal as well. Our family firm is steeped in history so read on for a short Spot-ontv history lesson.

Meet The Team

Naomi.I always find it a strange having to write about one self given that when you do you start to ask questions like ‘am i tho?’ I would like to think i am the postive, forward thinking goal setting individual who has the dream job of shopping for a living(apart from working with my brother ha) which i do think is true actually well as long as i have done a spinning class the night or morning before work then defo this is who i am, defo. Spot-on enables us to buy funky furniture items for your home and pass the good fortune of an excellent price onto yourselves. We should be allowed to have this choice without having to pay a premium because its’different or individual’ we are all different and individual so why not be able to shop like we are. single pieces making a room stylish and as elegant as you are my special customer. Go on- peruse and browse my friend indulge in your satiating style senses, let loose for 5 . we are shopping geniuses we are Spot-On

Big Al is kinda what i liken to a french chef,creative ,moody without caffeine and very passionate about what he does. he is at the hub of the nervous system . the heart of the operation, the fizz in the cola and the mint in the gum. i know, i will stop the cliches, could i work with a more dynamically driven human being who spends the majority of the time giving the customer what they want-no what our customer needs-stylish items at a real price? prob not if the truth be told.x

Introducing lisa is no easy task, She has many attributes in our workplace and im not sure where to begin, well actually i am but it may sound unintendedly condescending. Lisa makes the meanest cup of coffee you have ever tasted,its the one we look forward to in the morning, it kicks starts my day let me tell you. Anyhoo,not taking that away from her the lovely lisa is great at queries, problem solving and the weakest link and deal or no deal. Her hobbies include flower arranging and even more impressively has recently restored their home with her husband Ray who guess what?He works here too!Moving on nicely……

Callum is our chief wrapper, he is the man dedicated to overseeing the meticulous wrapping function of all our parcels, this isthe man who has posted his own possesions to see how well they stack up against the journey it takes to get to our stylish customer. God knows he would post himself if he could. he doesnt want the glitz and glamour of sales oh no he is like a doozer from fraggle rock beavering away in the background completing the last essential bit of jigsaw before our beloved item leaves us forever for pastures new. He has over the years seen many many changes in the modern world of internet buying and with great power comes great responsibilty to wrap like he has never wrapped before.he regularly receives his own parcels from various internet shops and more often than not if it isn't up to Callums standard he will do a knowing look of disgust at his item and whisper under his breath ‘could do better’. High five Callum high five.

Meet Ray, Ray is our chief delivery technician and all round magician. "Raymondo the legend" is the man when you need that built in fridge freezer expertly installed or the american style fridge freezer to fit in a hole that no one would think humanly possible........well Ray makes it fit! He also does that magic trick where he can actually detatch his thumb from his hand amazing. Ray loves installing washing machines as much as he loves biscuits, which is a lot, He's the man, hes the guy because there is only one legend that is Raymondo. FYI Raymondo and Callum always abide by the strict truckers code of conduct and will always flash you in or stop to help if you get stuck.

This man is the man upstairs ‘the boss@newbiggin’. But on his days off he is a train spotter or if the weathers iffy reads up on ww2 aircraft. Bryan has a Sat nav built in his brain which we dub "Bry nav" Bry nav is an awesome bit of kit, Give him a town he will tell you how to get there, give him a landmark he will guide you home. call him from anywhere in the UK and his expert knowledge of the UK road and rail networks will be flowing through your ears in no time, Also if you stay on the line Bryan will update of various points of interest, nothing boring like normal sat nav's like where the toilets are but Bry nav will give you the low down on the towns and villages telling you where all the World war II RAF bases were which includes ALL the secret ones to, He can also give a good food guide star rating on most pubs which you pass along the way, granted some reviews stem from "Me and your mother stopped there in 1982 and the food was exceptional" but always a handy insight none the less. If we ever had enough money we would design our very own Bry nav with all the interesting features of the UK and its lorry depots. Bryan is the oracle of our Matrix, The bridge over our river kwai he silently keeps the whole show ticking.

Spot-ontv are part of the E Watson & Sons family. It all started in 1886 when Emerson Watson turned his house into a shop selling everything from parafin to pots and pans, bicycle's to nuts and bolts, Then in the 1940's Emerson's son Tommy carried the business on and still to this day our local customers refer to our shop as "Tommy Watson's". In the Queens coronation year of 1953 the TV set had just arrived and were one of the first in the north east to start selling a Bush 9" set for 53 Guineas, we still have one of the first TV's in our showroom as a fantastic ornamental peice. From the Miners strike's in the 80's to the various recessions E Watson & sons have always been part of and supported the community of Newbiggin by the sea. We are now into the fourth generation of Team Watson.We are active and very proud fund raisers for the Newbiggin RNLI station and various local charities in our community.

Things have dramatically changed since then and to add to our shop in 2004 we Started Spot-ontv.co.uk our new online store offering all the same TV's, DVD's and white goods but also adding to our portfolio TV Stands and Furniture. We now sell everything from Washing machines to Novelty hand chairs all across the UK which come direct from our own on site warehouse. We source Quality furniture from all across the globe. We take extra care to ensure a smooth online experience,

warehouse

Because we carry 100's of items in stock we know which is the safest way to ship your item to your home or work, Most items are checked and further packaging is added to ensure safe delivery, Hence if you scour the internet you may indeed find another website which is a few pounds cheaper but we are confident you cannot find our level of service at any other site. We are commited to only selling products we have knowledge of, we try our best to only include items on our website that can be sourced within the most a few weeks, we are a small family firm dedicated to giving you the quality product and service you deserve. we are "The family that delivers"

We recently teamed up with Sage to trial there new Sage one accountancy software, Click this link to see our interview on how Sage one benefited our business.

Your Guarantee Every item that we sell is 100% UK stock, no grey imports, no "A" grade stock and no ex-refurb its all brand new, unless stated otherwise every item has a 12 month guarantee. in the unlikely event of a fault an authorised repair agent from the manufacturer will repair your product.

As members of Europe's biggest electrical independent buying group, this gives Spot-ontv the buying power to slash prices against ANY high street store or any superstore and bring those savings directly to you.

One thing we don't do is go on about how big we are and our massive call centres waiting for your call as normally you end up doing all the waiting. We are a small family team all focused on giving you what you require as quickly as we can. So if you require an unpersonal non caring service which may be a few pounds cheaper then perhaps we arn't for you but if you do want the knowledge of a helpful and caring family team then you really don't need to look anywhere else.

retra

We are also members of RETRA (Radio, Electrical and Televsion Retailers Association), which means we abide by the RETRA code of conduct. At Spot-ontv we said no to 0870 so you can be safe in the knowledge we will not be charging you rip off prices for contacting us, all it costs is a standard call rate of 5.5p per minute. If you do have any questions, would like to check stock or delivery times please do not hesitate to contact us on 0844 800 9537
