hdtv seeker Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 (edited) Thanks to lostdog's receipt of $1900 (TV + 5 years warranty), I just picked one up yesterday for the same price with delivery thrown in from Powerhouse in Macquarie Centre. Their ticketed price is $1754.1 (10% discount from $1949) for the TV and $295 for warranty. Myer won't go lower than $2194 with warranty (salesperson claims they have plenty in stock). Bing Lee quoted $2200. Clive Peters wanted $2389. Harvey Norman and Domayne won't go anywhere near the price.

minbin Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 That's an excellent price hdtv seeker! And to think the same guys wanted to charge me $2275 only 4 days ago?!?! You must be a better negotiator than me. Got mine delivered yesterday, LOVE IT! Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackraven Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 hey damiens, re the 42pz700a - Full HD, imho the only reason to spend the extra money is for the design (which is why i bought it) check it out for yourself instore, but i sit 2m away from our 42pz700a and i have trouble telling the difference between SD and Full HD, let alone HD and Full HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there are not many left but that is a great price particularly power house. Im still debating on this or a smaller LCD for a well lit room , but its hard to go past the picture quality of these and just deal with the reflections! send to derek.jones@laurasinternational.com cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diesel Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 FYI Myer have 10% off plasmas & lcds starting from tomorrow. That's usually off RRP and you'd be able to get far more than that by negotiation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be a better negotiator than me. Got mine delivered yesterday, LOVE IT! Enjoy. It took almost an hour, 30 minutes of it was me doing crazy spreadsheet stuff on their laptop section trying to figure out whether it'll be cheaper to take the 24 months interest free option. I guess in the end it all worked out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rock123 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 my 50pv70 is currently hooked up to the HD stb via hdmi, picture's great. not sure if it's the HD stb or the plasma panel itself...i have seen digital stb on lcd and it's quite pixelated...esp for football matches... niceee.. guys,anyway for Starhub and Singtel mio, their HD channels same ? i heard it's limited HD channels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pschia Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 niceee.. guys,anyway for Starhub and Singtel mio, their HD channels same ? i heard it's limited HD channels If you don't want either and your reception is good, then get the Draco or Humax HD set-top box to receive HD5, TV Mobile and Digital 5, 8 & CNA instead. I am using the Draco STB with the PV70 and the IQ is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damiens1503562124 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 (edited) Well i took the plunge tonight and bought a Panasonic 42" 700A (Full HD). Couldnt quite get the price down to $2095 as some did, places I tried were JB HI-Fi at Hornsby and Castle Hill. Bing Lee Hornsby said they would match it but only if I purchased and additional 4 year warranty for $495. They couldnt do my Yamaha amp at a decent price so in the end I said no. I finally bought it at the Good Guys at Castle Hill for $2200 with an extended warranty of additional 2 years at $199. Best bit is no delivery charge as I also bought a stove from them the other day so they are delivering both on Saturday for only $40 I also got my yamaha 1800b amp from JB at castle hill. Good guys could get the price I wanted, they were close though, JB did it for $1280 Edited March 20, 2008 by damiens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmos1503559753 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 My wife and I popped into Goodguys in Bunbury WA today and at the entrance they had the 50" 700A for $2599.00, only 3 in store ? Might mean some clearances elsewhere as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a while, users will find that they are all repetitive. So far no HD for HK dramas, HBO and Hollywood subject matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
