i"ve been planning on getting this one but was just waiting for another coupon. As far as my research goes, there is nothing wrong with this TV. The buzzing sound some people report doesn't seem to be a major issue or at least it's a fixable one. I think what's going on is Amazon screwed up something and enough people complained so they pulled it until they can get to the bottom of the matter. I tried contacting Amazon to ask if there was a chance it might be available before the coupon expires today, and all I got was the same vague "Item under review" reply. The way I see it, they should extend the coupon for this one till the TV is available again since it's because of their screw-up that we can't buy it. i"ve been planning on getting this one but was just waiting for another coupon.

Yes, well known Amazon SCAM. They did this with other HDTV sets earlier. The basic idea is that they will match all of the major stores BF ads online. People prefer to stay home and order from Amazon for the same price instead of waiting for hours at Best Buy or Walmart. However what they don't tell you is that they have two of each to sell and the deals are gone in an instant. Now people are forced to buy it at FULL PRICE. Notice that the TV sets are NOT OUT OF STOCK. They are IN STOCK, however you can only buy it for the FULL PRICE. You have lost a customer for life, you dirty scamming bastrds!!!!

Same thing happened to me two weeks ago with a different TV. Amazon would not give me the price I originally ordered it at. Bought it and it dropped back to the original price this week. Amazon price changing has gotten out of hand. Instead of feeling good about the purchase, I feel as though I was duped. It also took six days from the date of order to remove the hold from my amazon credit card. I ended up using my debit card.

Contact Amazon for official policies on pre-sell prices. Vizio's website states that this TV is slated to go on sell this month. I contacted them a couple of days ago and they told me that they shipped a bunch to Amazon and other Vizio retailers as well. It is now up to Amazon to launch these things. I am cautiously optimistic that this thing will be in my living room within two weeks. (As long as I have it before football season anyways.)

the forum you are using poses questions to the Amazon community - ie, other regular old consumers who have purchased this item. I don't think it is the right forum for your type of question.

It's not just this model that is affected by buzzing, it's the entire "B" series which the other TV you listed is as well. Not everyone has the buzz and its more often reported online than those that don't. I just received mine earlier this afternoon and no buzz so far aside from the normal plasma buzz.

I purchased the same tv from this vendor yesterday too! I have asked for a tracking number but have not received it yet. I am also skeptical at this point. Hoping someone from Amazon monitors this site and can respond and check into this situation.

It sounds like the seller you originally purchased from was a 3rd party seller and not Amazon. You just had a bum 3rd party seller. Simply re-order from the seller that has it in stock. You can leave seller feedback. Please don't leave a negative review of the seller on this product page.

Are you saying that these recent negative reviews are false? I was beginning to get nervous; my amp is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Btw, I just discovered that many of the negative review comes from those who have not been verified as owners. Those who are verified by Amazon as actual buyers seem to give good reviews.

I think you will see more pop up on Amazon. Talk about funny. I just received a call from my tv salesperson (where I originally ordered the 630 and cancelled due to availability) and he said they were expecting an arrival of about 50 units of this model today and wondered if I had already ordered from Amazon! I told him sorry, I did but that might mean supply is opening up for one last push. Not sure where you are located, but in Michigan, Sears had the same tv in their weekend circular for $1099; no stock in our area but maybe in yours. Good luck

I received a Samsung LN32A450 LCD today. It was listed as being an "open box" in "mint" condition. When I lifted the TV out of the box it sounded like there was gravel inside of it; not a good sign to say the least. Sure enough, it was DOA. I called Samsung Support to be safe. Amazon Customer Service was great and arranged for a pickup (at their expense) though warehouse deals cannot be exchanged; I had to start shopping all over again. There's no telling if it was already broken in the warehouse or if CEVA, a new (to USA) shipping company is to blame. For me, it was not worth trying to save $20-$50. My next purchase will be *new*.

Matt, the price creep is really annoying! I was about to buy this thing last week for $2199, but wanted to wait till I got home because I had $75 worth of Amazon credits that I wanted to apply. By the time I got home, the price has risen by $85!!! So unfuriating! Then it dropped another $15. I felt like I was watching the stock market! Feeling like a sucker, I finally bit the bullet yesterday and purchased the TV for $2269. I'm glad I didn't wait until today because the price increased another $50! I don't know why they do this, but it makes me very uncomfortable as a customer. Will the price drop again by tonight? I feel like I'm a rat in a market-testing experiment. I wonder whether all of Amazon's customers see the same price or do some customers get higher prices depending on how often they express interest in a product by re-visiting the same page? I remember a few years ago Amazon gave slightly different pricing info to people who had an item saved to their wish lists.

Perhaps you have already made your decision? What did you choose? This something I am also mulling over. Both seem to be very good tvs and both seem to have issues (buzzing, fading black levels, etc). When a decisding between 2 good choices is difficult, perhaps both either option is a good one? Price is important and the samsung is much less expensive. Save the money for the next hi tech device you need to replace?

I've had this TV since November 06 and I've watched the supplier change here on this site several times. Sometimes it is Amazon, sometimes someone else. I'd just be patient and I bet it will once again come back to being sold by Amazon.

I paid for the television but the seller will not give me tracking information until he receives payment from Amazon. Amazon claims he was paid. So, I am caught in the middle. I don't know if this whole sale is real or not. I can't file any claim with Amazon until 3 days after the "scheduled" delivery time, which conveniently was posted as 2 week span by the seller. And, Amazon will not contact the seller or intervene on my behalf. So, buyer "beware"!!!

I ordered mine on January 15th and haven't heard a peep from Amazon. It used to be that they were good about being able to get new release items out in a competitive manner. It now appears that they have lost whatever edge they might have had. If I see one locally, I will buy it and will cancel my Amazon order.

Top Hat, I'm having the same experience you did. My HDTV was supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Even tho the Amazon product page says the item will be delivered via White Glove, the trucking company said it will not. I've spent the past 90 minutes on the phone, being passed from Adorama (the seller) to Amazon to the trucking company back to Adorama back to Amazon back to the trucking company. It turns out that the product page is misleading. It's only when you buy your TV from Amazon.com that you can get the WG service. BUT, here's the tricky part. You can't just add the item to your cart and go through checkout. You have to click on the list that says "18 New and Used," or whatever the number is. Then you have to SELECT amazon.com as the seller. Isn't it nice that this isn't mentioned ANYWHERE on the product page? I couldn't find anything in the Help section, either. So, I've cancelled my order with Adorama so I can place the order directly from Amazon.com, thus making sure I get the White Glove service. What a PIA!!!
