According to CyberMart, an electronics retail arm of the Hon Hai Group, consumers have snatched up all 500 60-inch Radioshack LED TVs that it was selling online on December 25.

Early On Monday, CyberMart chairman Steve Chang announced that the company would start selling the US’ No. 2 electronics brand’s large-screen TVs in Taiwan and China yesterday.

According to a CyberMart public relations official, the company originally planned to offer 500 RadioShack TVs over three days, but they sold out in just an hour on Yahoo Kimo Inc’s Web site. “We did not expect to sell out all those TVs in such a short period of time. This is another indication that having a large-screen in your living room is becoming a trend”.

In Taiwan, orders for 60-inch TVs have exceeded supply ninefold, the official said, adding that CyberMart only has 500 RadioShack TVs left in its warehouse.

CyberMart will begin selling RadioShack TVs at its outlets on Friday. The retailer is targeting corporate consumers for the 60-inch TVs, which will sell for NT$58,800 per unit.

CyberMart also sells 60-inch LED TVs for NT$38,800 each, bundling it with digital content packages from the island’s top telecoms operator Chunghwa Telecom Co, or with cable TV system operator Kbro Co.
