I am looking to buy a remote control for my Sony TV - model : RM-GD031
So far, on ebay the cheapest I could find was for $23. But other sony TV remotes are being sold for as low as $7.
I am on the look out for a bargain for my remote. Other than ebay, is there somewhere Ozbs buy their TV remote controls from ?
Cheers,
That remote sounds nice but is a bit exy. I am looking to replace remotes on a regular basis as the kids home seem to have a profound love for throwing around remote controls.
I don't recommend the Harmony 350. I have it and it's a slow, slow remote that just lags. You press a button and your TV maybe responds a second later. The buttons are mushy and unresponsive, and it always switches back to a device that isn't even setup. I hate everything about it. I only use it because our Soniq remote broke.
What model is your TV?
I've just used this Czech company http://www.remote-control-world.eu/ to get a remote for an old audio system (with cassette) that I've hooked up to my telly as a "sound bar". I'm using an HDMI audio extractor from aliexpress to get audio out of the HDMI signal from the Foxtel and Tivo going into the back of the telly. It sounds fantastic, loud bassy stereo instead of the tinny TV sound that we've put up with for years. And repurposing an old audio system that I nearly threw out.
Remote-control-world have a LOT of remotes, and can program generic remotes to suit special items if the original remotes are no longer available.
So I would contact remote-control-world with your TV model and ask for a price.
Another suggestion is to look on http://www.aliexpress.com/ for your remote, they have a lot of cheap remotes, starting at $9 delivered (but not for my audio system unfortunately).

Aliexpress doesn't have a relevant model. I will drop a line to the eu website.
Speedy Spares are the distributors for Sony remotes, their prices aren't too bad usually but you might be able to find it cheaper elsewhere. http://speedyspares.com/products-remotes.html
i willl drop them an email. no prices listed no their site
Get the Logitech harmony 350 universal remote. Easy fix for your problem and you can program other devices to it. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Logitech-Harmony-350-Universal-Re…
