6ave is a well known retailer that has been selling on the Internet for years. I wouldn't worry about buying from them. If you include the cost of the laptop in the price I am not so sure you got a very good deal.

i have the same tv dude! you will love this panny! it is amazing! you got a great price as well!

[Bizdady]

LOL Kent, she needed one anyways for school and so I can use my desktop again so might as well. Getting cash back on it anyways, did live 30% cashback on laptop.

Bizdady, congrats on the new Panny!

I'm a recent Panny convert waiting for my new plasma that will arrive Wednesday! (12/3)

Are you going to hang yours on the wall or do the stand? I'm getting mine hung, my neighbor is helping me. If you need info on the wall rack I can hook you up.

I have purchased from 6 ave both in the store and on-line. They are reputable.

Congrats! Now the wait is on until you get it...

[Bizdady]

Hope I get it before Dec 9 now!! Cant wait to watch Dark Knight on this baby!

Excellent choice. Don't forget to run the break-in DVD/pictures for the first 100-200 hours at 50% picture settings. Keep the screen filled and no video gaming. After that, you're good to go!

Ya ill stick to gaming on the 37" 1080i/720p set. So no widescreen bds for first 100 hours? Guess ill be sticking to 1.85:1 for a while. Dark Knight alternates ratios so think itll be ok?

I get my 85u on Monday! I'll let you know how it goes.

Free shipping was curb side, but out of no where they set me up for Threshold delivery with a company called Manna (FREE!). So instead of dumping it at my door they are bringing it inside. I took the day off of work, so they could have easily left it at my door, but I could use the help bringing it inside!

Obviously I would never pay someone to come in and set it up for me, so free delivery is all I need.

What, you didn't have The Geek Squad lined-up to come in and hook things up for you?

NICE SCORE FOR THE NEW TV !!

Great tv man. Enjoy!

I am supposed to have my Panny coming on Monday, too. The manager and sales associate are delivering it and setting it up for me. Basically, they are going to pack up my Samsung LCD, take the Panny out of the box, Set the Panny on my stand, and take away the Samsung. I will plug everything in and turn on the set and test and make sure all is running correctly.

This way, I do not have to carry it up the ten stairs to my front door, and then down another flight of stairs into my basement.

So you sold the Samsung? Hope theyre just not taking it for free.

Delivery and take away is free.


I'm exchanging the Samsung for the Panny. The set looked totally different in my viewing environment. I could see every flaw of the LCD. Clouding, flashlighting, general backlight bleeding. The manager agreed when he came to my house to see exactly what I was complaining about.

Bottom line is that I wasn't happy. The company I bought from has a 30 day money back/90 day exchange guarantee. I was on the verge of returning the set, but they gave me a deal on the Panny 800u and BD35 blu-ray player that I could not refuse. The best part is that they are local so dealing with problems is MUCH easier.

Unfortunately Im renting so I can hang it up, im thinking of upgrading my stand to one of those hanging stands.
