From my understanding, Amazon doesn't do price adjustments. But call just in case.

Yes i have tried but to no avail. I did go ahead and buy another Tv at the new price though . It will go very nicely in the bedroom . Can't beat the new price at 539.00.By the way Samsung rocks!!

i read a post from a guy who said amazon refunded him the differnece (upon requesting it) because the price changed within a month ... worth calling about i'd say

Agreed, Amazon can shove it. Just bought one off of eBay. Base price was 1889.99 shipped, but I get $151.20 cash back from Windows Live, and hopefully another $56.70 cash back from ebates.com for a total price of $1682.09. Ordered it today around lunchtime, will be delivered tomorrow between 10 and 2. (beat that, Amazon).

Yeah Damon, I think and feel the same way as you do. I had exactly the same untimely response as you did! What a joke GE Money Bank is!!! But, I still thought the 31% off the MSRP of $3500 was a killer offer I couldn't refuse! Now, I see that Samsung has reduced the MSRP to $3200, w/Amazon currently selling at 22% off ~ still not as hot a deal, but pretty darn good- I feel that, that price will probably drop another 4-7% over the next month though! So, why not take the plunge then, and just plop it on another card?

Yes, the 52w3000 was at $2499 just a few weeks ago. Suddenly the price jumped to $2608, now I am waiting for the price to drop again...

Very good points. I noticed the 630 last night actually was in the $1400s. It seems to have been raised over night.I'm not in marketing, but it seems to me they adjusted the 630's price in order to make the 650 appear as if it is a good deal. Which don't get me wrong. $1550 is a great price for this TV based on other suppliers. However, it's illogical that they are raising the price unless they are simply trying to make more money or are getting low on stock. Either way, like you Stratixman, I won't buy it from amazon at this price. I had planned to use amazon but if they don't lower it back to where it was a week ago, I'll be using newegg. I'll give it a couple days but after that, newegg will have my business. Very good points. I noticed the 630 last night actually was in the $1400s.

Well I purchased my right when it come out for $300 and after used I sold it for the same $300. I sold it because this item used a great amount of bandwidth and when I lived at this moment (Brazil) the internet is control it. What I don't understand why are some people selling this now for $666.66, insane!

Forgot to mention I paid over $75 more for mine used through Warehouse Deals. It was just a dinged up box model, but I've never seen the price as low as it is now brand new, anywhere! Buy it fast, it's over $100 more mid-winter!

I couldn't believe this price either. You're correct...Philips has this for sell for $169.99. Thanks for letting me know!

Its like you guys are speaking after my own heart. I totally feel the same way. I was about to pull the trigger on this set and boom another 200 dollars... Ouch. Unless this set drops to the 2168 it was at or lower I'll be taking my business elsewhere. What were you thinking Amazon ???

I'm sorry, but I don't know why the price changed. I would have to check with tech support.

I got mine from Amazon last week for 1249, best price ive seen. Last night it was ~1450, now its 1379. I was surprised by how often Amazon changed the prices.

Some retailers are charging a premium on it because it's "new". Newegg originally was charging it for $349, but it's on a $10 "discount" now so its $339.

lol ....I wonder if or when they will drop it again? We supposed to be getting Black Friday Deals not price jumps! Anyway... hopefully they will drop it back to $624 or lower in a week or 2.

Yeah, I bought it yesterday and today it went up $50! I hear Amazon fluctuates with their prices, maybe it'll go down in a week or so.

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.

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.

wtf is right. why is this going for almost 3x it's regular price? surely there is a new and improved version out there (which normally makes the price of the older model go DOWN). does anyone know?
