deals on big screen HDTV?

[Baia.]

I'm looking, and i'm sure others are looking for a good deal on a big screen HDTV, So if you know any, plz post here.


Is futureshop/bestbuy the best place to buy a tv from? or is there another store, not hear of that sells for cheap, and good quality?

[D.NGUYEN]

Remember, I work at Futureshop and will always give a good deal on a Big Screen TV. Just PM me. I'm at Futureshop Brampton. Just remember that things on sale will look like your getting a worse deal from me since it's already down. But on regular priced stuff it looks much better. Right now it's hectic in the store and don't have time to find the price for you guys...sorry. Just PM me and I will give you my number so you can talk directly, or wait till after Boxing Week and I'll hook you up. :)


If you do plan on purchasing from me, best time is in January, much less people with me available to talk to and give you a deal hehe. No need to go through the headache of boxing week. Plus things are going to be out of stock usually at that time, so January/Feb will be full again.

Isn't January also a good time to get one since there'd be a lot of open-box returns from people watching the superbowl on the bigscreens and then returning them for cost? I know that kind of stuff goes on in america but I'm not too sure about here...

For someone who doesn't want to buy a membership to Costco to check prices, what is the approx price for the cheapest 30 inch HDTV? LCD, Plasma or CRT. I don't care, I just want it cheap!

I got a 27" Viewsonic N2750w for $849 but am thinking of taking ti back for the 32" Daytek D-3220 for $1199 which I hear is a lot better. Go to costco.ca and check the prices out. A lot of the time the prices are cheaoer in the store than online...why that is...I dont know, but the Pioneer plasma on the site is like $2699 and instore it's like $2299

isnt this TV on sale right now? $2900 before tax ($600 off stated on flyer)
i dont know much about hdtvs but it seems like a pretty decent deal, altho, it doesnt have surround sound, i dunno if that affects just when tv is stand alone, or when in home theatre as well

i was at FS the other day tho, and hte Panasonic on for 4500 has way better quality (but its like 1600 more yikes! ) there was a hockey game on, and the LG ice looked yellowish, whereas the panasonic was a truer white.

[D.NGUYEN]

Hi, sorry everyone, deleted some. If you want to try and PM me now you can again. The LG for 2899.99 is pretty darn good for a plasma, the quality is also pretty good. If you need better price for panasonic PM me.

[jgmaull]

does anyone know anything about this one?

Viore 46" Widescreen DLP Projection HDTV** (IPT46DL30) - Includes Stand

dlp link (http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926HDS0010067663&catid=23250&PCName=#)

It is going to be on for $1399 for Boxing day

[D.NGUYEN]

Pretty crappy, I don't see anything good in it really except for the price, I think I'd rather save a little more money and get a good branded DLP. better than magnavox though.

Are you trying to solicit business for yourself on RFD?

hes getting people a deal.

[Drew_W]

hes getting people a deal.

While at the same time drumming up business for his store...which I consider blatent commercialism and should be banned from the forums in the vein of "don't have it in your posession, can't sell it".

He's screwing FS by doing what he's doing...I hope he likes his job (and his managers/supervisors too if they've cleared this) as I think higher ups at FS wouldn't be too impressed with the general public being offered employee (or thereabouts) pricing on anything they want, thus killing their margins.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for deals, but this guy has to be getting SOME kickback, else why waste your time with this?

[jiffylube1024]

Drew, I think you're blowing it WAY out of proportion and you have your facts all wrong. Even if someone here works @ FS and can get "deals" on stuff, they're still making money for the company; FS doesn't sell stuff for a loss or even at cost (unless they are clearance/discontinued items) and TV's over $1000 are high markup items. That's why they can afford to cut some $800 on Boxing Day and sell 30 units at cost. Getting someone a few hundred off in January still gives FS a nice profit (again, TV's are high profit items) and the salesman gets his commission kickback.

It's pretty much win-win; the salesman makes his commission and FS gets a sale that quite often they wouldn't get (I'm encouraging my parents to buy an HDTV but they won't unless they get a 'deal', for example).

Even "employee" pricing at FS is not cost; FS and Best Buy have fictional "cost" prices they give employees which is actually not the true product's cost (I know for a fact BB uses this tactic and I'm 95% sure FS does as well).

Finally, as for forum rules, he's certainly not listing anything here, and you need to buy this from Future Shop! It's not like it's being sold off the back of a truck, and he's not advertising anything aside from "come to my store."

How is the Norcent plasma on sale at FS for $1299. I would use it as an occasional tv watching cable, little dvd and no gaming. Thoughts?
