[Buy.com](http://Buy.com) has a really nice 52inch LCD for sale. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with them? Also what kind of shipping do they use for large items (DHL, UPS, Fed ex)??

Do they call you on the day of the delivery? or do they just leave it at your door?

My Sony 52" LCD came in a box big enough to live in. 6’ x 3.5’ x 1.5’  
Going to cost you a fortune to ship it. Which TV is it btw?

I ordered my tv and bowflex from online and it was done through a third party shipping company. They called and arranged that someone be at the house.

i’ve purchased alot of electronics and computer parts through them in the past. Great online store to deal with but i’ve never bought anything large enough to need freight so i’m not sure on how that works.

GL and congrats on the TV!
