so im looking at getting a new tv, possible a 42 inch flat lcd or something still fishing around. yesterday i was at best buy looking at them and i stood and looked at pretty much every tv for about a half hour and not 1 person approched me so i left. there were atleast 4 employees standing around me, not one asked if i needed help. i probably would have walked out with a tv if someone approached me. any suggestions for a place to purchase a tv from that will be at a good price?

the internet… always the cheapest unless you have an insane connection. and shipped is offset by the tax you would have paid.

Usually the TV’s you see in the store can be bought shipped on the internet for about $200 - $300 cheaper. LG has some nice options for not too bad a price. Search around, Amazon usually has a deal somewhere.

Quality is decent,tons of great reviews.I would use places like bestbuy/circuit city to see what models you like best and then find them cheaper online.

I got my 42" toshiba plasma from Rosa’s. Couldn’t beat the price or the 2years of 0%financing. So I’d recommend Rosa’s, even if you don’t buy from there go there and check out everything and get some good info as the salesman I dealt with had so much information I almost exploded.

^^ doesn’t look centered

you could always just check craigslist to find a used TV. unless you absolutely have to have a brand new one.
