Blu-ray Player Special Deals: ALL pricing deals and locating talk goes here - Page 432

bsevern,

What about my question would prompt a response that would prompt the rolling of the eyes? It seems like a logical question to me? $100 vs $34 I guess I will over spend by 195% on a blu-ray movie to have it a month early, because it is that good.

I would speculate that the Black Friday blurays will be the older non-3D models. Gotta clear out inventory!

Why people are willing to spend $100 to have it first, I couldn't tell you, but if you review the past sales on fleabay the numbers speak for themselves. I wish I had a truck load of some of these bundle only blu-ray 3D releases...there's a small fortune waiting to be made. If they make Avatar 3D BD a bundle only release initially, I'm sure it'll easily sell for over $100 on fleabay.

need something good but not too expensive with 5.1 analog connections, need to upgrade my Sammy 1400.

Also, an AVS member is selling a C6900 in the classified section here for $179 incl shipping NIB sealed.

Looks like Samsung just released firmware that gives the 6900 a new Netflix interface with browsing function.

Thank you

what's the difference in the 6500 and 6900 other than 3-D, they also have the 6500 for $149, or is someone gonna say I have to go to a different forum to find that out ??

Correct.

just kidding.

my local BB had a bunch of open box players

Sammy 5500's were $99 and 6900's were $150.

Better upscaling and more apps.

Those who receive the hhgregg ad in your local Sunday paper they have a price mistake advertising the ps3 160gb for 199.97 they will not honor at HHgregg as I tried, but Walmart will honor the advertised add price. I just picked on up at the local walmart.

I bought one for 299.99 from HH Greg and they will mail me a $100.00 gift card. I got one this past Sunday an I live in Savannah Ga, not sure how wide spread the ad was.

I followed what shepjk26 did and just took the ad to the nearest Walmart and paid $199.97+ tax. I live in Marietta, GA. It nice of HH Gregg to send you the gift card, but you were taxed on $300.00. No big deal.

I see Amazon is currently selling the Panasonic DMP-BD65 for $103.68. Lowest I've seen on that unit for a while.

Every several years I go into the Germantown, Md. BB and try to deal with them. Invariably, they do something outrageous and I don't go back for several more.

Case in point, based on your post I went in a few minutes ago. They had the 6900 open box for $219.99. I asked to see the store manager. "Julie" appears and I tell her Amazon has the item delivered for $214 can she go lower. She says she can't reduce the price (10% off their selling price) because "$219 is below their invoice cost." I asked to see that invoice and "Julie" responsonds "I can't show you that, you'll just have to trust me. We're done talking"

Looks like another couple of years, at least.

What did you expect since you pretty much outright called her a liar? Of course she got huffy, most people would.

You don't appear to know what you're talking about. If you did, you'd realize there are 2 more possibilities other than lying. First, it's unlikely and unwise, but possible BB paid more than Amazon and therefore $219.99 was below their cost. Secondly, she could have made an honest error, we all do.

It's inappropriate, given the 3 options, to assume that I was calling her a liar. If the roles were reversed, I certainly wouldn't have assumed she was calling me a liar (I'm not that insecure) and no I don't believe most reasonable people would. For some unsupported reason you feel differently and you're entitled to your opinion.

If you want to take this further, I suggest we take this off-line via PM, or e-mail.

I am suprised that walmart match the price since the PS3 is priced fixed from Sony, so I didn't even think about doing that.
Allen

Allen,

I think Walmart was just operating under their store policy of price matching from a competitors ad.


Willie

Followed the hint as well, but Walmart said "No" (pictures looks like old PS3)

I just got a Vizio Blu-ray player from Costco in store $129.

Unbelievable value for the $$ here, I'll be posting more of my experience(s) in the players thread below.
Truly via this price point and other players at magic $99 Blu-ray will come into its own.

Vizio VBR231 Blu-ray (WiFi, Netflix) Player

BTW, It sure is a time warp going to page 1 of this thread, prices $350-$400's 3 years ago vs now.......and the features/specs.

Will this season push Blu-ray players into the appliance realm?
For us consumers I sure hope so.

Best Buy has their version of this player on sale for $119 this week (comes with a $20 CinemaNow gift certificate).
