HELP: Sony Bravio 46'' 1080p... good deal? (and BB financing Q) - Blu-ray Forum

GOAT · 12-06-2009, 01:39 PM

looking at doing the awesome deal best buy is doing right now... http://www.bestbuy.com/SonyTVPS3

I would be getting the Sony Bravio 46'' 1080p for 990... is this as great a deal as it sounds? I would most likely end up selling off the PS3 and game and buying a $150 or so BD player so it would technically be even a little bit cheaper for me.

Also how does the BB financing work? It says if I spend over 1000 then I can have no intrest for 3 years... after warrenty it would be over 1000 bucks but I dont quite get how it would work. Do I set up an account through them to pay them monthly or what? I will most likely pay them off around April when I get my tax return. Do you think there will be better deals then?

THANKS ALL

You apply for the credit when you get there, once approve you will get a monthly statement like any other bill, you can either mail the payment into them or goto the store and pay them.

Yes its a good deal! I got my new 46V5100 plus my BDP N460 Blu ray player a month ago from BB and paid the same price you would be paying except I didnt get the extras like you are such as a selection of games and a movie thrown in. Go for it at that price its a steal.

I bought it!! Waited about an hour as they were out of stock and so was the closest store... it will be delivered and installed to my home next Tuesday and I may have already sold the PS3... plus I bought an awesome new sony BD player that will be coming in about the same time... next week will be AWESPOME

phish00 · 12-08-2009, 01:02 AM

The t.v. is a really good deal and a great price. As far as the financing works you get a monthly statement and you have to pay the minimum payment but if you don't pay it off buy the 3 years then they charge you the interest. I work at a Sony style store and we had a deal last week if you bought the xbr9 t.v.s you get a $800 dollar gift card. But the free PS3 is a great deal.

hienesey · 12-08-2009, 01:03 AM

Don't be sad when they ship you a Bravia instead of a Bravio. J/K. This is a good deal. I have a friend that is very interested in it as well.

phish00 · 12-08-2009, 01:03 AM

And you have to go to the store and apply for the card go to customer service and say you want to apply for the financing.

Very cool! Which Sony Bravia did you get? V,W or XBR? You sold the PS3? Why? But again congrats and enjoy.

the cheapest one, lol... and i sold the PS3 because i have no use for it, i dont game and i have a new BD with BD live, netflix, etc.

could someone who has the 46'' screen check the bottom piece (IDK what is called, but the part the TV sits on) and measure it for me... I want to make sure it will fit on my current entertainment center.

ZoetMB · 12-09-2009, 06:17 PM

Those are good deals. You can find those prices for most of the TVs, but you're basicaly getting the PS3, game and movie for free and as you said, you can sell the PS3.

I wish they had the 52XBR8, but I see that they have the 46XBR8. I really wanted the larger screen, but the XBR8s are hard to come by these days. The last (and lowest) price for the 46XBR8 at J&R in NYC was $2700.

I bought the Bravia 52z5100 at best buy bundled with PS3, PS3 game and BD with BB financing for 36 months.
