What's a good wall mount for 52" LCD

Just looking on the futureshop website. There seems to be quite a variety of mounts and they range significantly in price.

I have a 52" sharp LCD and would like to mount it on the wall in my condo. I don't need to have any type of tilting or pivoting feature. I also don't need speaker holders. Just a basic sturdy wall mount will be fine for me.

Can anyone make any suggestions? Are those Init units any good? How about the Sanus ones?

Any feedback or recommendations would be really appreciated.

Thanks guys!

i have the tilting mount, and it retails for $13X, but cost to bestbuy is only $2X.
see if u can haggle the price down to 2 digits lol.

If you don't want to go the Monoprice route, try some of these local guys that sell mounts on Craigslist. They're selling a 42"- 65" Economy Plasma/LCD TV Wall Mount Bracket (Blk) for $46.50. Seems pretty decent since Monoprice is probably selling that exact same mount for $26 USD. Probably cheaper than your BB or FS options out there.

Browsing craigs list about a month ago i read a post from a buyer on 1 of those wall mounts, he said it was complete shit. Screws were missing and 3 different kinds of screws and it was suppose to only take 1 set. Must be someone that can get you a discount. Wall mounts are marked up 50%+ I got mine from london drugs for $49.99 52" low profile.

It could be true. I've never bought off the CL guys. I just assumed they're buying them off Monoprice and bringing them up here and selling them with the markup.

The one I got from Monoprice was pretty decent and all the screws were intact. (they even had extra screws in case you lost or stripped some) It's held up pretty well in the year that I've had it. I go down to the US pretty regularly so it wasn't a big deal for me to pick one up from the US, but I can see it being a hassle for some people.

$50 at LD is a pretty good deal too. Maybe OP should check out LD too. I think I've seen Visions sells some for pretty decent prices if the OP is looking for other local places.
