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*.

Amazon is a reputable company. While you may not get a product in pristine condition, you can breathe a little easier knowing you won't get stuck with it. Buying refurbs or used stuff is sometime a crap shoot no matter who is selling it. But if you buy something like that from a company that won't stick it makes a big difference.My experience was a very positive one. I purchased a Panasonic P42S2 Plasma in "Used, Like New" condition. It arrived and I can't tell it from new. It works perfectly and has a magnificent picture.

I just got a refurb 46" Samsung LNT4669F from Amazon Warehouse deals and it is fantastic. Plus, we saved well over $600 by not buying new. You still get the Samsung 1-year warranty. If you don't like the condition of the t.v. when it's delivered, just refuse it. If you notice a problem later, call amazon and they will arrange pick-up for the defective television.

No, they are not. I have purchased several items from Amazon Warehouse deals and *every* time the product has been defective. These products come from third party sellers, not Amazon warehouses, so they will not make it good. They may offer to allow you to return for a refund, so a lot of hassle and the sellers know that many (most?) people will not do this. The items are often misrepresented ("like new" for items with damage, for example). Amazon should be shamed of themselves for doing this. So, be warned! A very high risk you will be disappointed with anything you buy from warehouse Deals. No, they are not.

I ordered a 4071f from them, and it appeared to be a brand new tv. It was in very good shape. I decided it was too small for my living room, but it was in really good condition. That has been my experience.

I just purchased Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 12.1 MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3.0-Inch LCD (Black) using the warehouse deals. This camera is usually over $300 new, but it was listed in the warehouse deals in "like-new condition, may come repackaged" for $131.99. I jumped on it, and received the camera yesterday. All original accessories and everything was included, it even came in the original box. The camera was in perfect condition, in fact, it looks brand new.

I bought a UN46B6000 from warehouse deals. I bought the open box warranty from SquareTrade because it wasn't clear if the TV's 1 year manufacturer's warranty applied. When I got the tv and SquareTrade warranty, I found that I was covered by the manufacturers warranty, so now I have an extra year via Square Trade. I saved so much on the TV, and the extra warranty was so inexpensive, I am glad for the extra year.

I ordered a 'very good' condition Samsung LCD tv through Amazon Warehouse Deals. It arrived today just loose in a box with barely any packaging. Needless to say the TV is covered in dents and scrapes and of course doesn't work. Not impressed, I'd suggest ordering new.

There's a promotion going for the LN46B750. Amazon is currently selling it for $1,999.99. Input coupon code, "SAMTV300" and it drops to $1,699.99. I'm pissed because yesterday I picked up an LN46A860 from Crutchfield for $1,579.99 with 1% FW cashback. It already shipped, bleh.Specs wise, seems like everything is the same except that the LN46B750 introduces 240Hz motion and Internet@TV (Yahoo!, YouTube, Flickr, etc.). Also, the LN46B750 has a charcoal ToC while the LN46A860 has a dark blue one. Moreover, I haven't come across a review that details the performance of the 240Hz motion.

I had a problem with Eagle. They didn't show up at the time specified two days in a row. Then only one guy showed up on the third day. I went to help him bring it in. The box was in very bad shape and the TV was broken so I refused it.While I had a bad experience and wasn't willing to go through it again, I'm pretty confident the large majority of people buying Amazon products shipped via Eagle have no problems at all. Just because my TV was broken, doesn't mean yours will be. I still recommend buying from Amazon with free shipping. You can't beat the deal and chances are everything will be fine.My two cents....

That's what I figured ! Good customer service , hey ! It took 3 day to get a response to my email from warehouse.YOU won't believe this ........ they have 2 open box units listed now on amazon for $400 more than what I paid thaaaaaaaaaaa! I just spent 20min. on the phone with an amazon gal in Manilla explaining the deal and she agreed and sent them an email. At least I learned not to trust them. Hope you guys luck out better. Let us know what condition they are in.

Amazon has the 30 day guarantee, and it seems people do not have trouble sending back the TV if it is not the IPS panel. At this price I'm thinking of getting one myself.

I bought a un55b7000 from amazon warehouse in like new condition and it was like new. expended warranty is cheap.

If it says ships in 4-6 weeks, then it means Amazon has non in stock within their warehouse. When you order it from Amazon, they have to send the order to LG, who then processes it, packages it, and then ships the unit to Amazon. When Amazon receives it, it is then sent to you.I think I got lucky, because my invoice read "Ships in two weeks" when I placed my order, but then Amazon sent me an email saying they were delivering it a whole week early. They must have had someone cancel their order on the TV and it ended up in my hands.

WB, I just ordered this TV and so far the process has been great. I placed the order the day before yesterday, got a confirmation email this morning saying it was shipped, And a phone call from the shipping company M.. something asking me when i wanted it delivered .. I could of got it by this coming thursday but i work and am goin outa town next weekend so they work around ur scheduel to deliver when your at home. (If someone isnt home the day they deliver and they have to come back you can get hit with a double shipping charge - That y the person on the phone scheduels a day/times for ur delivery. I'll be getting mine on the 11th of June. From what the shipping company they told me on the phone they expect you to fully inspect the TV and you can refuse it if there is a defect to get a replacement...only after you've inspected the tv the delivery person leaves after you sign a piece of paper saying your happy with it. If you do refuse it they'll send it back and you have to contact J&R and tell them why ect... I'll keep you posted when i get the tv and check it out on the 11th. So far everything has gone by fast and smooth. I was a little sceptical too cuz its alot of money. UPDATE : 6-12-07 The delivery is top notch. the tv arrived new and no defects..i would recomend it. It comes with a year and a half warranty thrrough sony so if u have issues find ur closest sony style store abd pick up the info on who u contact etc in ur local area. DC

I bought this TV for my mother, and I left the operating manual (which includes the warranty info) with her. So yesterday, I e-mailed Sceptre's USA office for the warranty details on this item. This was their not-very-detailed reply of today: Dear Customer, One year parts / labor. Best Regards, Sceptre's Technical Support Group I had been considering a similar TV from a local store that was nearly $300. When I saw Amazon's $259 price for the Sceptre 39" TV, I was unsure how a TV would hold up throughout UPS package transit, but I decided to give it a try. At checkout, I was offered a third-party, three-year warranty (which offers in-home service on 39" TVs) for under $21. I bought this Square Trade warranty, which also had good reviews. Packaging protected the TV very well, and there was no transit damage.

I always thought that consumers had 30 days (sometimes 14 depending on the store) to return an item for any reason so why would you not just return the TV and get your money back? I cannot believe that Amazon would not work with you in this instance. This is a reply to William C. Reitz Jr. "Techie" post above. EDIT: I found this on the Amazon.com returns policy area: "Televisions 27 Inches and Larger Amazon.com cannot accept the return of televisions 27 inches and larger after delivery. Upon delivery, please inspect your television carefully for damage while the shipper is still present. If you discover any damage, please refuse delivery and you will receive a refund. Your signature on our carrier's delivery receipt acknowledges that you understand our return policy. After the release form has been signed, returns of televisions 27 inches and larger will not be accepted. If you accept delivery and later find out that the television is not working properly, please check the paperwork that came with it to see if the problem is covered by a manufacturer's in-home service warranty. All televisions 27 inches or larger come with one. If you are unable to locate warranty information for a particular model, contact the manufacturer." How in the heck can Amazon.com get away with this? This is totally ridiculous! I will NEVER buy a TV from Amazon!

Guys I placed order last night for this TV+DVD+Glasses combo deal $1290. I got 3y warranty and I pay NY sales tax so total is close to $1600. Wish I had a %20 coupon... Still overall a good deal and I can always return it with Amazon excellent service. Will post review in few days. If you have coupons pls send I will try to apply it.

They started doing this to me 6 months ago. I don't mine waiting but, they should say in stock with delay shipping so I can choose to buy else where. I just order a Blu-Ray player 5/4 will not ship until the 13th. I am not buying warehouse is so big crap. I buy a lot from NewEgg and they have 3 big ones and it is always shipped the day I place a order or next business day. This will make me look more in to Buy.com if they keep this up.

Absolutely not. I don't want a replacement. I just feel that Amazon and buyers and wherever else this is sold needs to know that they only last for a month. There are many review on Amazon and elsewhere that say the same thing. If this is not a scam, it's pretty close to being and I'm not saying it is Amazon's fault. People just need to know.

You are right about the 4665 price fluctuations. I got it from Electronics Express (through Amazon) for $1950 + shipping, problem is they are out of stock. It's been 3 1/2 weeks since my order. Normally I'd cancel and go through someone else, but I now can't find the tv in stock for any less than $2450! I'm not willing to pay an extra $400, so continue to wait for EE to get a new shipment in.

I ordered one from http://www.warehousedeals.com/ This is an Amazon site. They have two available right now. If there aren't any when she checks, just keep checking. It says they're refurbished, but it tells you exactly what's wrong with them. I think they are packages that were returned to Amazon, so they can't sell them as new. It says that one of them has minor blemishes, but the other one just talks about the box. Mine hasn't come yet, but I think it will be fine. And it was cheaper than the deal they had on here.

Well, I missed the boat on Amazon's initial price of $2849. I'm looking to be just under $3K for the TV, Blu-Ray, and Starter Kit, if possible. US Appliance is now offering a $400 coupon. The total is now $3078, after the $400 coupon and the $30 Blu-Ray coupon. I called to verify. The guy I spoke to seemed very nice and assured me that they are reputable, however, I have read some pretty mediocre reviews about them, so I've decided to wait it out a bit more, until Amazon drops their prices again.

Go to the Amazon Website-click on "Today's Deals"-then click on "Warehouse Deals," you may find one there. Of the two of these I ordered, one had minor cosmetic problems and I exchanged it.
