hey guys. I'm about to pull the trigger on the 65 VT50 - where are people buying these? The price at BB is ridiculous compared to online retailed and the GT50 it has at a good price.

I recently (2 weeks ago) bought a 70" sharp LCD and am very disappointed so after some research, going to go back to plasma (had a pioneer 6070), looks like the VT50 is the way to go.

Where can i find this? It's already Wednesday... would love to have this by the super bowl!? Is that possible?

thanks!

No links, but will say that getting delivery from an online order before the weekend is probably tough.

I twice ordered TVs from Amazon (UT50 plasma, exchanged for ET5 LED) on Wednesday's recently. Even with Amazon prime I ended up with deliveries the following Monday. Takes a couple days for it to get to the warehouse of the local delivery company and then they call to arrange appointment. You can select delivery date when ordering too, but that placed it out 2-3 days later each time I ordered so I didn't bother.

So unless you find an online store with a warehouse near you or a place that does Saturday deliveries, probably not a lot of chance of getting it delivered before the game.

Moral of story, shop around locally if you must have it buy Sunday.
