Actually, I think Costco has the PX model, not the PZ. Go for the PZ if you can get a discount at BB.

I've got a 50" version of the 85u, which is practically identical in features and PQ...A GREAT TV. No buyers remorse

I do have this tv, picked it up a couple of months ago. I have yet to have any problems with it. Besides Time Warner Cable(which I hope to switch to Dish soon). I picked this tv up from Circuit City because my BB didn't have any in stock and said I would be waiting inline with 280 more people. If you pick this tv up from CC and get it calibrated please let me know! Good luck!

I've had this tv for about three months now and it looks great. Panasonic makes great tvs. Just make sure you can hook it up HDMI to get the full advantage of HD.

Employee discount at BBY is 5% over cost. So even with the price match, the discount would be the same.
