Is this TV seriously not on sale on black friday? Even Best Buy has this TV under 2k, but amazon has it at 2300 ish and not budging?

I picked mine up through Costco and have also noted that it's not on their website right now, odd. It was 1,399 w/ free shipping and it is the best TV I've ever seen. You'd have to pry it out of my cold dead hands.

This is the First time EVER I have replied to someone posting on these forums. Usually, I enjoy reading and gaining insight on the topic at hand. But, since I have first hand experience I will share what I think you should do. I believe you should order it online from Amazon.com and not from one of the retailers that you can purchase from through amazon, for instance, Datavision, J&R, or Beach Camera. The price difference from bestbuy and amazon.com (Directly Amazon) is too much to ignore. I just ordered the Samsung Lnt4065f for my room for 1499.98 and it arrived on time and with great service. Eagle called me the day before and scheduled a delivery window of two to three hours and brought the tv into my house. They set it up on my tv stand and stayed until the the Lcd Tv was on and in working order. On top of that I was lucky enough to see the price drop on my model twice in a week to 1459.99 then 1409.98. I was fortunate enough to read some of these forums and realize that we could get credited back the difference within thirty days. I called Amazon and they took care of the matter immediately. The first time crediting back $40 then the second time $50. (As a sidenote, since then the Tv I bought has gone back up to 1459.98 with shipping) The price is just insanely GREAT! This same tv that I bought for $1409.98 with white glove delivery (aka bringing the tv into your house and making sure it works so you can decide whether or not you are going to accept or refuse the tv) costs $150- $200 on other websites. If I calculated shipping as $150 then I would have basically paid $1259.98. The set I bought, Samsung Lnt4065f costs 1999.99 without tax at best buy, with tax equating to well over $2100! I would again buy from directly from amazon.com (the company and not another third party vendor using amazon as a storefront) for my future big ticket purchases. I hope this helped.

Fry's has it for $1099 as of Sunday 2/8 (advertised for $1499 with $400 off instantly). Amazon is out of their mind selling this TV for $1,499.99!

I ordered this TV yesterday (9/1/2008) when I saw the "$200 rebate". Of course, it was asumed that was a cash rebate - without seeing the fineprints. Does anyone still have the link to the rebate? Or anyone has downloaded the pdf file?

I got the lnt4671 for a steal a week before Christmas. I paid $1,145.00 with $54.00 shipping at Amazon's Warehouse Deals, and it is in perfect condition. The only difference was that it came in an Amazon brown box. It's $1,866.00 there today. I'm giddy over this TV - it's the best!

I was contemplating picking up this tv for a few days. I was looking at it the night before the coupon came out. I had decided to wait a few more days but went to look at it again one more time on the website just after midnight pacific time and noticed the price had just jumped from 1999 to 2464. Luckily the other merchants that sell through amazon had not raised their prices yet and i was still able to get it for 1999. Woke up the next morning and almost cancelled my order thinking amazon lowered the price again due to the misleading email that i received about 6 in the morning. Good thing i stayed up late that night. I was contemplating picking up this tv for a few days. I was looking at it the night before the coupon came out.

Great price! How did you negotiate down from the MSRP to $2,100? Did you do this in the store and talk with a manager? Was it part of a package deal (tv, blu-ray, surround sound, installation, etc.)? Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

Bill, thanks for replying, I agree with you. I could not wait anymore, and I bought mine at Costco a few weeks ago, $639 was just too good to pass up. I think it's fine for a room with little natural light, but yes is seems dimmer than my old 37" panasonic plasma. But I am very happy with the picture quality and it's bright enough for my setup. I really like the TV so far.Marcel.

I bought it from Amazon for $1389 like December 10th-ish with no blu-ray. I complained to customer service after I received the TV and they refunded me $100 and gave me the blu ray player for free. So I guess it's worth a shot if Buy.com's customer service is as good as Amazon.com's.

i do not know. The Best buy price is real. I am a silver rewards member at best buy and i got to purchase the TV at that price yesterday, shipped to my house.

Well it looks like the 47LW6500 is a Black Friday deal per http://bfads.net. My question though is will this TV decrease in price for Friday? Currently bfads says TBD for the price, so it seems that it will drop in price tomorrow. Anyone have any ideas if that is true?

You know i just realized this is a forum for the 720p model - I already have a 720p hdtv and I'm actually looking at the 1080p model. Looking for that one to drop another $100 (hint hint Amazon) before I jump in to get one.

i am waiting until pre-superbowl, they usually have a sale on big tvs around then. if it is still in the 1900 range i am going to bite the bullet i guess...

Have been watching this as well. Look at the ratings. I own one and its the best LCD on the market at the moment IMHO. The lowest price I have seen here at Amazon was $2940.00 USD a while back. Which is what I got it for. Since folks have been buying it, and the ratings continue to be 4.75+ stars, the price has been creeping up towards what the local BB and CC are charging for it ($3800+ in my area). I think once the 71 and 81 series hit the streets, this one will drop for sure. But until that time, this one is top dog, at least in my house. The picture maxed out in 1080P will just blow you away!!
