Man, I'm still on the fence for this one... there are two issues here: US Appliance vs. Amazon ($150 difference, but I would get rewards points on my Amazon visa equaling $50 so it would be around $100) and then this model vs. the V10. I was all about the G10 but read some people see excessive flicker with 24p (since it only supports 48hz and 60hz, whereas the V10 series supports 96hz and 100% pure 24p playback). Can anyone provide any additional insight on the 24p issue?

Also, I plan on selling the bluray player since I already have a PS3, so this TV instantly becomes a steal at $1048 from US Appliance or ~$1150 from Amazon (w/ my points). Seems like the extra features of the V10 series aren't worth $400-600 (depending on where you can get it), but I'm hoping 24p is at least bearable...

I bit the bullet this AM... hope it was actually in stock when I ordered!

Since the TV's out of stock I gave their CS a call to see how up to date their inventory tracking was... Wow one of their CSR's was a dbag. After I explained my concern he blurted out "we won't know until we manually process your order. My next thought was, if orders are processed manually then is their inventory based on processed orders or some other tracker? I didn't get an answer other than "we can't say for sure until we process your order.

I'm already wondering if I should have gone W/ Amazon...

buydig.com now has it for $1199 and some freebies. You may want to try there.

Hmmm...now I should cancel the Sears' order and get this instead...decision...decision. one thing that is still holding me back is I'm afraid that one of the item is OOS and they just ship the other.

I go to panasonic.com, find the TV and then find their online dealer and this is what I get

...but it might not be the completed list.

edit--opp, steve just update his post.

buydig will not accept any return for TV even if the TV is defective, regardless whether it's due to shipping or manufacturer defect. This is one of the main concerns that I have w/ buydig. Has anyone have any experience with them regarding buying a big ticket item?

asahi21 said:Damn, I was so bummed out today when I called US Appliance and the sales guy told me the TC-P50G10 was out and he was given specific directions not to take any more orders. When I got home I refreshed this page and WOW big UP's to the OP who told everyone about the deal on buydig. So at about 11:59:46pm PT I finalized my order with buydig. It came out exactly like steveo2626. Although I am a bit worried that the $200 rebate isnt listed on the website and I hope that my invoice will show 6/27/09 and not on the day it gets processed. Also, anyone here believe HDTV hook up kit is worth $149? Just out of curiosity how much do you think its really worth? ...I hope I dont get screwed on this deal.
Definitely not worth $149 haha! You would probably get $20 for it on eBay, and that's stretching it. You can buy HDMI and component cables pretty cheap online. Makes the deal a little hotter i guess, but only slightly.

I still haven't decided whether or not I want to cancel my US-Appliance order and place one with buydig. I know I will qualify for the rebate with my current order and would be gambling trying to switch now. Wish it weren't the weekend so that I could call these places and figure it out.

Does your online order receipt show 6/27? Can anyone verify who ordered today 6/27 that their receipt shows 6/27?

I don't see why the purchase would be "by process date" and not by "date purchased". That being said, I went ahead and purchased one from buydig in case US-Appliance doesn't pricematch... will cancel one of them Monday.
