Will amazon price match this?

Quote from lesper4 : Will amazon price match this?

Found this on their website: "With the exception of TVs, Amazon.com doesn't price-match with other retailers (including those who sell their items on our website). We do, however, consistently work toward maintaining competitive prices on everything we carry. We're working hard to make sure our prices are the best around. If you find a lower price on another qualifying website within 14 days after the date we ship your order, let us know and we'll credit your original payment method taking any differences in shipping and promotions into account. "

You're in luck actually.

On their list of "qualifying websites" is buydig.com

Instructions on how to price match is on the link above.

Here's the reviews on this TV. This is probably the lowest you'll find it:

Not on the authorized retailer list: http://www.panasonic.com/about/vi...ailers.asp

Pauls at $1249 comes with white glove delivery where they hook it up to confirm functionality. They're also on the approved retailer list.

With some of the CB sites, you can get to the $1200 price point.

I'm just about to buy this TV, and I think I'll stick with Paul's.

If you live near a Paul's retail location, you may get a better deal via their "Recycle and Save" promo (B&M only).

On the phone with amazon, but not having any luck since buydig is selling through ebay.

EDIT: yup, no dice.

Would jump on this but my space only has room for the 50". Argh

The "WIFI 3D" adds an additional $200 on to the price tag. Do you really need the fluff?

Yes!!! Also this one has THX mode and thinner more attractive bezel than the ST model

I've had three failed attempts from the company Pauls uses outside California for their "white glove delivery" and all the delivery people refuse to hook it up, they will just plug it in to make sure it turns on. From my call when I originally purchased, I was told they would actually hook it up to a component to make sure it works. That is 100% not the case.

Fourth attempt is tomorrow for a tv I ordered in November, what could possibly go wrong this time...

Four attempts? Why don't you just try a different retailer??

Odd that they told you that on the phone, probably trying to convince you to make the buy, taken from their site:

Our white glove service (also called Silver Plus) includes the following services:

Plug in TV's and power on to ensure the TV is undamaged. If there is any physical damage to the product, do not sign and refuse the shipment. Please note: Assembly of stands or pedestals are not included. Please contact us prior to your shipment if special services are desired at a additional fee.

This is from the auction fine print:
Return Shipping
Return shipping cost (the cost to send an item back to our store) is like or comparable to your cost of driving to any store for returning an item, which is not reimbursable. Therefore, we do not reimburse any return shipping cost.

If an item you received is defective, we will certainly replace the item with a new one, however we do not cover or reimburse the shipping cost for returning defective merchandise back to our store. We will ship the replacement product to you at our cost, and use every good measure to ensure that the replacement order is processed quickly.

So if they send you a defective TV, they are happy to replace it but you have to cover the cost to ship the defective TV back to them. That's crazy.

Great price, wish it was 60"
