Black Friday Special
Starts Wed Nov 21
11 pm EST/10 pm CST

The workers at my Sam's are idiots.. I just called there, another one nearby, and back there, and got 3 different answers.. LOL

What is DCR good for when on?

I'm going to re-ask a question that was posed earlier with no response. Maybe nobody knows the answer.

Does the audio out send a 5.1 signal to a receiver?

DEAL IS LIVE at sams online!! just got one, good luck AVS members

It's 10:39pm EST and the Sam's Club website just let me purchase the TV for the $998 price! I got one!

10:42 PM! My first post on here is appropriately my successful purchase!

I got TWO !

keeps saying website is down. anybody else having problems logging onto samsclub

Took me 15 minutes to get it all to process (started at 10:55, finished FINALLY at 11:10), but it went through thankfully. Their site was running very s...l...o...w...l...y and kept asking me to re-enter info on various pages. Frustrating while going through it, but it looks like we got one!

score
i didn't really have any issue getting in/loading but i was in pretty much right away

i got a sharp 60 the other day but wasn't really happy since i wanted led and bigger
didn't really have the money but hell got it anyway now to return the sharp

I saw one posted on page two that looks decent, any other opinions and does anyone know the vesa size on this?

finally i am going to check out the tvblink link posted but if anyone has setting they find work good please lmk
thanks

I'm looking at the manual for the M3D651SV model. reading the manual, that model outputs either Dolby Digital or PCM through the Optical Audio. It also has RCA jacks which are labeled Stereo output. I assume that means it will send the 5.1 out via optical (but not necessarily via the Stereo jacks)., though I really don't know that.

I don't have mine yet, and I don't know if the m650SVE would be the same. You might be able to check the manual on the vizio site for that model.

How do I buy it at Sams online when it says it is sold out online and pick it up at club? There is no add to cart or check inventory button. What did I miss?

I bought it with my citibank VISA so I may get a price match from them. Problem is that mine might have to go back which will mess up the pricematch .....

I have a big bright cloud in the center bottom. All told it is about 1/6 to 1/8 of the screen. It is visible anytime there is a dark scene or someone has dark, or any solid clothing such as red or blue. My brightness out of the box was in the low 50's, so is backlight.

Will this fade after a few days? It VERY obvious in that second when the program goes to commercials...big gray blotch. Quite obvious as I said when the area is meant to be dark.

I could swear someone said he fixed his by rubbing it or something, but I can't find that post. It may have been for the E601, but I looked tonight and didn't find it.

Am I supposed to take it apart and shove it back in the box to exchange it? What would Vizio do if I claimed it under warranty rather than return it? That seems a pain in the but. We had a bit$% of a time getting one set of the screws in the base and figuring out how to hold the screen while putting the base on.....Plus, it't too heavy for me so hubby would have to help and ...

Also, as I said...I'm doing citibank price rewind. They claim to search online for 30 days for a lower price and credit you if it goes lower. I'm hoping I get a credit for this weekend sales. IF I return it I might lose the credit right? Then after I rebuy it (in the exchange) it will be after Friday's sales and I would lose out....

Thanks! (except for the blotch we love it...replaced SONY wega 55")

I went into Walmart earlier this evening and put this tv on layaway so that anytime on Friday after 7am I can go in, cancel my layaway (forfeit my $5 deposit), and purchase the tv at the $999 price (they will price match any sale running concurrently). In the meantime, I'm going to try Amazon for the E601i-a3 deal for $688. If, however, that doesn't work from now til Friday, I'll go pick up the 65" and pay the $999 +$5. Seems like a win-win to me. Good luck to everyone else in their attempts at finding these tv's for a great price this holiday season!

no luck..."requested quantity unavailable"

on to next problem which is exchanging it for one without the cloud. I will post a photo tomorrow...
I think it's defective, so I hope to just bring it back assembled and get a new one....if they have any.....and hope it's not worse...OR see what Vizio will do...

I've been checking... this TV is out of stock online...

So now this means I'll have to be at the store early on Friday morning.

I was fortunately able to get this TV ordered at ~9:55pm CST. I cannot wait to get this thing setup in my basement and ready go to!!! Lets hope none of us have any defective delivered units! Off to IKEA this weekend to purchase a stand...

Got mine from Sam's Club a little early, about 10:50PM EST. Many thanks for the info provided by users here...helped me decide which model to purchase.

Who told you about the layaway??
I asked about it for the 60 deal and was specifically told that layaway is closed on Friday and that they will not price match bf deals via layaway

Nothing. It's crap. Turn it off and leave it off.

What it does is changes the backlight level, depending on what is on the screen. Light scene high, dark scene low. But it is quite noticeable in it's fluctuation and is distracting and degrades overall quality of the video playback. Also when it is active, it overides any backlight level setting you may have adjusted yourself. This BS DCR is designed to expand the Contrast Ratio, by varying the backlight level, full blast on bright scenes (brighter absolute level whites) and turned down to it's lowest on very dark scenes (darker absolute level blacks). Which it does, but the floating blacks sucks and is very distracting, as 30Plus said.

wallyworld will NOT match if you have a set on layaway. Nice try but you and everyone AND their mother will be gunning for these sets and wmt has already stated as such

all the costco are converting to HDMI hook up on the instore displays now all the Costco by me have it now here in Cali

Go to MONOPRICE for your mounts cheapest around they have everything mounts and HMDI's read the specs on there mounts for MM this tv is 600MM X 400MM alot of mounts that say they go up to 60" or 63" will work call monoprice or chat with them online they will help u out . I am lucky enough to Will call all my shipments they are down the street from me in Rancho Cucamonga CA good luck

I got mine at 7:45pm Pacific time. I called Sams Club early today they told me to login in online and get ready 1 hr before so was ready at 7:00pm my time I am glad I checked it at 7:40ish and closed the deal Good luck to everyone on AVS on getting one instore

Man sold out quick online huh? I sprung for the 60inch last Sunday. The 60 inch is plenty for me in a small 18X12 room. Good luck to anyone who picks up the 65 inch

It is not widely publicized but Walmart will price match any deal for an in store ad running concurrently at any time. The only items they will not allow you to place on layaway are the "doorbuster" items which they themselves advertise. Please see below:

http://www.iheartthemart.com/2012/11/14/walmart-black-friday-deals-2012-get-black-friday-price-deals-right-now/

I was also told in store at Costco that this TV would NOT be on sale black friday. The guy also showed me Costco's flyer showing their black friday sales and this TV was not one of them. I have never dealt with Costco and any price match policy. but like you, I am not going out in that shopping mess.

Just got notification that mine has shipped. Woot!
