I like my $600 50" Samsung plasma from Best Buy better.

AVS forum's discussion on the 32" version.

Best T.V. I ever had.

That's just my opinion though.

not that I am dissing you, but I bet that was the only plasma you've had.
How many plasma's does someone have to own before you aren't dissing them?


I've owned 42" vizio plasma, 50" Vizio plasma, 42" Sceptre LCD, 52" Philips LCD, 50" Panasonic Plasma, and 42" Philips Plasma to this date. Best TV I've had was 52" Philips LCD so far.

I just can't trust anyone claiming to have the best TV in his life when in fact he busted his butt on black friday to buy a haier brand for $499. The best TV in his life, not your life. Sounds like you've got plenty of disposable income and you're burning up the plasmas and lcd's. Not everyone is so finicky that they aren't satisfied with the first screen they get. So, if he says it's the best tv he has ever had, how do you disagree?

Please read my op. How do you claim to have experienced the best plasma when in fact it was the only one you had? I was assuming it was the only one he ever had since he busted his butt overnight to get one at 499
He never said best "PLASMA" he said Best TV I've had was 52" Philips LCD so far" Best TV, who knows how many kinds he has or has had.

I do grocery shopping for vegetables, the way you do TV shopping, but I guess thats because the economy is down. Oh and by the way, you need to keep the TVs, not buy and watch and return them for it to be counted as bought a TV.

I think you all should stop bashing Pun. We all know what luckybum was trying to say. If his Haier was so great, it would be more popular than other brands. Yes, I do understand he might be saying it is the best tv he has ever owned, CRT or flat panel. But Pun's point was there are probably better alternatives. Let's move on and stick to the topic. Thanks.

This is my original post about owning my current plasma.
No where did I say I spent $499 as some have claimed.

All I tried to do was alert people that a good deal was coming up. Nothing more, nothing less.

It's no wonder I hesitated joining this forum. Too many people do nothing but attack.
I thank those that try to help.

Dont even run your BIG mouth again. You are the one who against that $600 50" plasma thread mostly.

Why dont you open your BIG mouth and tell us how you did it while you kept running on that thread that deal was not possible.

If you want peace of mind, buy a Sony, Samsung or Panasonic. They are the best of the best. If you want a cheaper LCD TV, then go buy a Vizio. You can't lose. I would not buy a Westinghouse, Olevia or other non-brand. It is a real hassle to have to return a TV, especially if it is bought thru online. You may want to check out Costco, they give 2 year warranty on all TVs (double the manufacturer standard); and you get to return within 90 days. No questions asked.

You obvious dont have very good eyesight....I seen plasmas stack up side by side at costco..and its a no brainer the panasonic blows the visio out the water.
