Bumping this ****, cause it's such a good deal!


ANYONE looking, thinking, rolling around the idea of buying a new TV... SHOULD BE BUYING THAT ONE!

 

What is this 480Hz Sub-Field Drive about?
Is it similar to that 120Hz the LCD's have?

 

Plasma's have always had much higher refresh rates than LCDs from my understanding

46" Sony Z-Series for $1499. I posted a 10% coupon earlier.

 

Yes, it's a 480hz refresh, but plasma's do it right. It's doesn't look weird or surreal like at 120hz on LCDs.

 

and if you have AAA, you can get their circuit city coupon for 8% off

 

The 10% coupon I was referring to, is a 10% AAA coupon.

 

you guys see the dude who posted a above who works at circuit city. Said they raised prices right before just like everywhere else, total joke. Walmart is best for a tv IMO

 

Um... they do this EVERY YEAR.

The only real deals on the stuff in the ads that they have low stock on

 

I don't work for CC, and honestly, I find it quite childish that you'd say something that stupid. If you think about it logically, i-club does NOT have anywhere near enough funds to stop a business as large as CC from going out of business. Plus, even if I worked there, I wouldn't see any commission from an online sale, so why the hell would I care? I'm just posting honest legitimate good deals that I find. Why am I searching? My parents are building an addition to their house and need to furnish it. In fact, since CC has the holiday return policy, they bought both so they could sit on the price and think about it.

I'd like to challenge you to find a better price where you can take it to a store if there's something wrong with it, instead of dealing with some customer service guy over a phone. It just happened by chance that both these deals were from CC. In fact, I was going to post a link to a Fry's sale, however, by the time I got to it, it was sold out.

Also, Walmart??? I read that, and I discredit ANYTHING you just said about TVs. Why? First off, Walmart doesn't sell the higher end TVs, I just looked for 5 different TVs that my parents are interested in, a Sony 46" Z-series, V-series, W-series, the Samsung LN46a650 or the LN46a630. None of which are listed on their website. However, they do have the Sony S-Series, which was listed at almost the same price I found the V-series. The Fry's sale which I was going to post, was a Sammy LN46a630, which was also going for the same price Walmart is selling the S-Series for. Both of these TVs put the S-series to shame. However, if you like to waste your money instead of doing research, do as you please, it's your hard earned money.

Circuit City is one of the easiest stores to rip off, which is why I like to buy from them plain and simple. If you can teach me how to rip off Walmart, please do, as most of the prices I get on electronics beats Walmart's by a long shot.

 

yeah tv deals sucked this year for the most part, my work didnt sell crap for tv's(office depot)

 

Um someone posted up before that circuit city increased their prices ahead of time. They seemed to have edited their post, was that you?It's a common practice done by a lot of the retailers. I think you need to relax. your comment is pretty dumb about taking your tv back to circuit city, instead of talking to someone on the phone. I think you can guess why. Anyways walmart does carry some hi end tv's, you have to check each location. While the polaroid doesn't match the samsung getting a 42 inch 1080p for 500 bucks isn't bad. The vizio's are good too. Please don't be rude about doing research. Circuit city is a joke and treats their employees like dirt. Frankly I work in the industry and guess I have had 1000X more experience testing and playing with tv's than you have, so no need to be an arrogant *****. Anyways my point is if you research and follow tv's were just as cheap 2 weeks ago besides door busters.

 

I agree, most retailers jack up their prices, it makes the average consumer think it's a great sale. And no I don't believe I have edited any of my posts in this thread, and that statement wasn't made by me. However, considering the circumstances, your post looked as a direct post to me.

How is my statement pretty dumb? Here's my logic, when you take something back to the store, they need to deal with it face to face, and as long as you're civil, they can't/won't kick you out. When you're on the phone, what stops them from getting frustrated with you where they can just hang up? I've had multiple friends ask me what to do because something isn't working correctly, yet, when they get someone on the phone, they end up getting nowhere. If you don't mind me asking, what is your logic on why talking to someone on the phone is better than in-store?

Are you telling me I need to call every location near by to see if they have a certain TV in stock, since it's not listed online? I find that extremely inefficient compared to Fry's, Best Buy, or CC. While they may have some great deals on the slightly lower end models, that isn't what I've posted in this thread.

Yet you recommend Walmart? There isn't a doubt in my mind that CC treats their employees better than Walmart.

Arrogant? Please, look at you saying you have 1000X more experience. I really don't care about how much testing experience you have as that doesn't help either of us find a good price on a TV. Like I said, if you can teach me how to get great prices from Walmart on a regular basis (and I mean better than their normal 1-2% lower prices), I'm all ears.

 

For an uber cheap deal walmart can be your place. I agree I hate walmart, but I was pissed off to see frys and best buy advertising some deals worse than 2 weeks ago. I was pretty turned off to them, I mean it's a great time to buy but I question whether black friday is actually the more expensive time to do it this year. I believe this is the case due to the dynamic of the economy. Although I will say detail addict had some good prices!

I think in 2 weeks prices will be even better.

 

Which is why I love the holiday return policy. Most places allow items purchased now to be returned around the end of january!

Maybe the Super Bowl sales will make TVs even cheaper than now
