1937076
Yesterday, July 23, Frys in Houston has the LG47LW5600 again for $799.00, down from $999.00. But the 55-inch went from $1,199 up to $1,449.00. Probably being set up to go on sale this Sunday for $350.00 off at $1,099.00.

Michael...absolutely correct. Although, I must tell you during the time I was there shopping for a new TV, there was a customer buying a brand new Samsung model (I think it was the new 950 Series) which they mistakenly labeled with the WRONG price. We're talking over $1,000 wrong!!! They honored the lower price because it was their mistake and the guy had such a BIG smile on his face.

Yes, I would be interested in this TV also at $535.99 with free shipping, how do we find out if Amazon will honor this?

I had received a email from Amazon Tuesday 8/23/11 advertising this TV for $598.00 at a whooping $11.00 savings, so I put it in my cart to purchase later this week. I was shocked to see today that the price jumped up this high (738.95) in one day! I did check with Sam's Club and they have them with free shipping for the $598.00 price. What is up with Amazon?

Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks? It's like they are trying to make us buy the LNA46750 ($1630 or so). Makes no sense to me...there are apparently many TV buyers at the ready if Amazon wasn't jerking the price all over the place. If they don't get things straightened out shortly, I'll buy it over at Newegg. They're pretty reputable from what I understand, and the Newegg price of $1529 (free shipping) is looking better by the minute - though product appears to be on backorder or something over there. Patience will be a virtue here I guess. Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks?

The 55 has been out for weeks. I guess they ran out of initial stock. I love the tv. Great value for the $$.

The lighning deal was 400., it's now listed at 548., but I'd imagine it may drop in the next month or so. The model came out in 2008, I believe. I've had it less than a week now, so far seems very good. I really haven't had a chance to fully explore it yet. Using it as a bedroom TV.

47LW5600 is actually $999, about $400 cheaper than the 6500. It seems the only difference between the 5600 and 6500 is the 6500 has 240 hz refresh vs 120 hz on 5600 - that wasn't as important to me.I have seen the 5700 also for about $1000 - but it does not have wifi capability. It does come with a stripped-down 3D BD player so you end up having to trade wifi connectivity for Blue-ray - guess it just depends what's more important to you. That's why I ended up going with the 5600 - I wanted smart tv to stream movies. I'll pick up a BD player at a later time.

I am looking to buy this tv as well. Bestbuy has it for the same price. + tax of course. i hear alot about a buzz. that is why i am thinking best buy might be the way to go just in case of a return.

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...

Uhh, $458 for used TV?! I guess the seller didn't get the memo that you can buy a brand new Samsung 32" for around $350 on sale today.

You may have just swayed my decision. I want to love this TV and I won't be buying for a week or so still. I can only hope for the $1479 price tag soon.I've heard sometimes the buzzing doesn't start for a week or so. I hope we each don't have to hear it though.

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.

Now it's back up to $3149. I don't like the fluctuation in prices. It makes me think that if I buy it, I might over pay for the TV.

Once the price drops I will be purchasing this TV. Once it gets back below $1800.

They should honor whatever price you purchased it for during the pre-sell. They will not charge you until the unit ships. Latest rumors put this TV live this week....but....who knows. It will be worth the wait though.
