I talked to a manager and he gave it to me for $1899. I brought it home set it up and since i have a LN52A750 i used that remote on the 46B8000 and it worked. I just called samsung and they say i should get a new remote in 5 to 10 business days. What do you guys think ? was it a good buy ??? or should i have gone for the 46XBR9 ???? a new 46XBR9 was $2150... what do you guys think ???? i have 5 days to return it if i change my mind.

After buying numerous open item TVs from Best Buy, I only had one issue with a set (Plasma burn in). I returned it with no questions asked.

Brandsmart is a great place to buy open item TVs from, keep in mind, the 5 day return policy applies only if you change your mind. If there is a problem with the set, or like Samsung not sending a working remote, you have 30 days,

By the way, which Brandsmart did you go to, South Miami?

Either way, the B8000 is a far superior set than the XBR9 (though it's no slouch).
