Sharp 52" LCD $888.71 OTD - Sears Clearance YMMV

I don't know if this is a great deal but I got the Sharp Aquos LC-52D82U 52 inch LCD for $882.71 OTD on clearance at Sears. It was marked down to $899.99 and the sales guy gave me another 10% off because they needed to get rid of all of last years model. I have a copy of the receipt if anyone needs it.

Scan of receipt is below

I don't know if it's worth spending an extra $1,000 for an extra 2 inches.

A Sharp 37" might even be more expensive than this! Get it now!

Are we still taking about tv's? lol

Aren't the 82U's the newest model?
120hz, 1080P, 3 HDMI

This is a crazy deal only if we could find one!

this same post is on SD. it looks like people in that thread have already gone to Sears and confirmed that this was a one of a kind deal, not replicable by anyone else. so why are you reposting this over here now as if others could get in on it?

The "991" at the end of a Sears stock number indicates that it was a "clearance" item. During the 5 years that i worked at Sears i only saw these "991" items on the floor after they had been returned and/or repaired. Was this a new in the box item?

if it's really LC-52D82U, here is full spec
10% would be by this coupon
even LC-52D64U is $2,299.99 online

Wow, this is a great deal. I hope my local Sears has one of these in stock. I'll be checking first thing in the morning.

I thought the 82U model has more banding issues than the -64U, or am I thinking of the -92U?

My office internet is blocking the receipt scan. Could someone give us the sku for this tv ?

Funny the things they block. How do they expect us to get any work done when we need to spend all our time seeking 'blocked' information.

Specs say it is 120 Hz CONVERSION, not true 120 Hz. "120Hz frame-rate conversion didn't seem to do much in our tests of the LC-52D92U. Unlike that model, the sets in this series lack a DVI input, making do with a VGA-style RGB input."

ALL 120 Hz LCDs use frame rate conversions. There is no such thing as a true naive 120hz HD broadcast or HD generated signal for ANY consumer electronic device. Even the most expensive commerical HD equipment cannot output true 120Hz (No 24fps is NOT 120Hz) For most, unless you have commercial projection equipemnt ranging in the 6-7 digit range 120Hz is nothing but a marketing gimmick.

What is the Sku? I can't read it...

Just to bring up my experience. I went to the Stockton, CA Sears store on my way back from Sacramento this week and the OP's message is true. What Sears is doing is, there is one TV on display and then they may have a couple of TVs brand new in box.

When I went there, I saw one on display and then like 3-4 of them in the box. They were also willing to take it out of the box and hook it up to make sure it works. The TV's they were selling are all last years models.
