I'm not sure why you are getting green for this. There is no longer such thing as a deal on a Samung TV. They have found a way to legally fix the price of their products. It is the same Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) everywhere, including Amazon. Best Buy would be the last place I would buy a Samsung TV from.

They don't actually fix the price. They just fix the lowest it can be advertised at. So now you have to go through the annoyance of putting it in a cart and sometimes go all the way to the final checkout before seeing the price. How rediculous is that?

Thanks - I always wondered why you had to add to cart - I guess these are typically good deals as it is lower than minimum advertise price allowed.

you never know one time i did just to see the price and it turned out to be a good deal I got the 40' samsung 1080p 120hz for price of 480 I think they mispriced it but I was fortuned to grab that and best buy honored the price

I would recommend IPS Panel Panasonic. I got the new TX-L32E3E today and am very happy with it and very impressed by its image quality!. Used with my watercooled pc, it looks amazing.

What do you do cut and paste the same response to all SAMSUNG tv threads? I suggest you re-read this yourself because it seems to apply to the new mid to high end models rolled out and not to some of the models you have C&P your response to.
I had been shopping for a deal on a new Samsung until I noticed that not even Fry's can beat Amazon on any model. I then went in a shop called Video Only and the sales manager explained to to me. I though BS at first until ii started searching for answers and this was the first of many articles. The reason I keep posting is because nobody researches the price before posting. If you simply searched the model number you would find that Amazon has it for same price, free shipping and no tax for most. Instead you make people think they are getting a deal at one of the worst places to buy a TV.

I'd buy from Amazon in a minute versus anywhere online as well.

I purchased the Panasonic from Amazon. Amazing TV! Worderful picture. Sound on par with all the other ultra-slim LCD's. I had seen the samsung at WorstBuy, and it seemed good, but I don't think it was as good as the Panasonic LEd with the IPS panel.
