And don’t need to be preached to by some gay bashing Democrat homophobe

CC caries the same tv. Whats the chances of getting a pm? Sears also has a 50" 1080p Panny. I'm not sure if its the same model though.

Taking advantage of others mistakes is perhaps OK in sports but not in everyday life. I feel cleansed knowing I helped save a company tens of thousands of dollars. All of you should feel this way by helping as well.

May the shepherd spare this little lamb's lost soul. He is so lost and confused in the business world. He couldn't tell which side he is on - devil or angel. Before he is aware of his sin which is deepening day after day, may the Lord guide him toward the light. And he is never lost in the dark side. Amen.

Maybe BB will start posting their ads here before they send them to the printers. That way, FW can proof it for errors and BB won't have to post corrections in the stores. Just another way we can provide them with the exception service we've come to expect from them (to quote a previous post)...

Looks like the person who called in got the attention of corporate. Here's an email I received from Best Buy:

As a valued Best Buy customer, we want to inform you of an error that will appear in the September 23, 2007 Best BuyTM ad. On the front cover we mistakenly listed the price of the 50" Panasonic Plasma TV (TH_50PZ77U- 8501711) at $1799, before $90 savings. We intended to advertise the 42" Panasonic Plasma TV (TH-42PZ77U-8501757) at $1799, before $90 savings.

Best Buy will not be honoring this price on the aforementioned 50" Panasonic Plasma TV.

We apologize for any inconvenience, and we will offer a $100 Instant Rebate on all Plasma Televisions from Sunday, September 23, 2007 through Saturday, September 29, 2007. This Instant Rebate will be deducted from the price you see in the store, including our regular sale prices.

Thank you for your understanding. We look forward to seeing you in our store soon.

I don't know what to say...congrats, Peakmaster, you have redefined the meaning of a thread "troll".

Perhaps OPs can wait until the deal is active before posting.

Yeah, you got a laugh the 1st time, but seriously, you're killing the joke. I know you thought it was so cool to get that one laugh, but you need to realize when you start telling the same joke over and over to the same audience, you're just beating into the ground.

Chris Farley could pull it off. In one movie, a hook grabbed his pants. Lame. He was lifted up over a truck. Lame. Then he starts flailing. triple Lame. Then he starts screaming. SOMEBODY HELP ME! HELP ME FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE HELP ME! That made me laugh.
PeakMaster, You are no Chris Farley.

Hey, did any of you score the Panasonic 50" plasma for $1799-$90 instant savings? This is a screaming hot deal!

^LOL at this bestbuy employee

It's not such a great deal after all IMHO, even with a price mistake. The 75U is virtually the same unit; the only difference is no anti-glare coating, and the speakers are on the bottom (as opposed to on the side with the 77U.) The 75U can be had for $1,400 or so, often less with incentives (there was a deal in the Hot Deals forum just yesterday for the 75U @ Sears for that price.) Speakers moved to side + anti-glare coating = $1,300 more MSRP? Uh, no. Heck it's not even worth $300 more as in this price mistake!

Yeah, but this is a plasma TV we are talking about here, not one of those cheapo LCD TVs. Plasmas are way better then LCD. That's just a fact.

Well not that it matters that much since the deal isn't being honored but for your information its 1300 more because it is full 1080P and has a better contrast ratio above all other current Panny full 1080P. (Along with the anti-glare coating and side speakers.)

the 75U is a PX75U and the 77U you are talking about is a PX77U. The PX means its only 720P. The model BestBuy is advertising is a PZ77U which is a model just released and full 1080P thus the big increase in price and what makes the $1700 price crazy.
