place order by calling csr and mention bing cb.. they will subtract that amount instnatly.

You guys... Looks like the store received a lot of bad reviews.. any reason to be scared?

You cannot get the CB Bing over the phone (tried, and was denied) but the CB Bing online ordering started working for me (did not the first time) but popped up second go-around. It has showed up in my account as well for $91.45.

I heard that was a possibility, but thought since it showed up on the account in the pending stage for 60 days (which from what I understand is just to hold out for returns) I thought all was well. I hope that it does hold up - the $1489 was a great price, but it was the $91 from Bing that pushed me over the edge to buy. Fingers are crossed.

Darn, missed it again.

Concerning BING,

The money for this deal is posted to my account as PENDING, so would it be reasonable it has passed the "coupon" check already given this legaleeze in the Bing.com Legal section:

We will describe the Bing CashBack savings available for associated qualifying purchases. Participating stores are responsible for reporting qualifying purchases (and related returns, refunds and/or coupon use) to us. Within two days after a qualifying purchase is reported to us, we will list the purchase in your account with a status of 'pending.' The purchase will stay in pending status for a period of up to 60 days (although for certain stores, the period can extend up to 90 days) to account for returns, refunds, fraud and other processing issues. After this point, if the purchase is eligible for savings, it will be marked as 'available' in your account and the associated savings will be eligible for redemption as described below. You must ensure that we properly post savings to your account. If you believe that you have earned savings that are not posted to your account, we will not consider posting them to your account unless you contact us within six months after the date of the associated purchase. We may require reasonable documentation to support your claim.

is ABC Warehouse an authorized dealer as US Applicance is the on-line face of ABC.

I told my buddy here at work about this SICK deal and pulled the trigger! After the bing Cash Back (that he already received), his final price was a CRAZY $1398.00!!! Crazy green for you!!!!

^^^ Yeah I was one of the first to give green, even though I wish I never seen this deal, I'm glad he posted it for others to take advantage of the great price.

I watched my first bluray movie on it and the back ground seemed a little grainy. I went online and found the settings to calibrate the TV and it made a huge difference. They have them posted on the Samsung website here

Here's a copy and paste:

Move on to the Picture menu and select the Movie mode. The Backlight setting must be set at 3 and the Contrast setting must be configured at 100. The Brightness and the Sharpness must be kept at 46 and 0 respectively. The Color must be set at 47. In the Tint option, set the Green and Red Tint at 50 i.e. both must be at 50. The rest of the tweaking is to be done on the Advanced Settings menu.

The Black Tone and the Dynamic Contrast must be kept at Off. The Gamma and the Color Space must be kept at 0 and Auto respectively. The Flesh Tone, Edge Enhancement and the xvYCC must be set on 0, Off and Off respectively. Move to the White Balance menu and the rest of the picture tweaking is to be done in there. In the White Balance menu, you will be able to set the Offset and the Gain for the primary colors (Red, Blue and Green). The Offset values for Red, Green and Blue must be 23, 24, and 25 while the Gain values for the Red, Green and Blue colors must be 27, 23 and 15.

Take a coffee break and return to the HDTV for there is much work to be done. Now we shall tweak the Picture Options menu. The Color Tone should be set at two. Screen Fit must be selected for the ambient screen size. It is safe to keep the digital noise reduction in the Off position. The HDMI Black Level will be grayed out by selecting the Normal setting. Ensure that the Film mode is also kept turned Off.

It is also better to keep the Blue Only Mode in the Off position. Select Custom in the Auto Motion Plus menu setting and keep the value at 120 Hz. After the Custom setting is chosen, ensure that the Blur Reduction and the Judder Reduction are kept at 10 and 0 respectively. Ensure that the Game Mode and the Energy Saving Mode in the Setup menu is kept Off.

These settings are a good starting point. I found that it was a little dark for gaming so I ajusted the brightness a little.

The Bing Cash Back was canceled for me as they said the discount on the web site was a "Coupon". Also the TV's are back ordered for at least two weeks. I ended up canceling my order.
