Quote from jxl92182 : Numerous people tell me they are not making any more of this. Everything will be sold and they bring in new models in March. Considering how well this line is selling, I really don't think they need to discount more. If u really like this, pull the trigger..i don't think it will get below $2k on the 65 inch.

you're probably right on that, but while amazon still has stock and the prices on either one of those 2 tv's hasnt really moved around much i guess i still have time to wait things out. i'm still mad at myself for missing that 64" samsung at tigerdirect.

I have been watching the price of the 65ST50 since October. Amazon had it for $2000 right around Sandy, and since then the price has gone up to $2300 and hasn't budged from that point. Last week, it was weird the 65GT50 was on sale for $2200(which I purchased), and the 65ST50 was priced slightly higher. I also feel that these models are selling very well and I don't think the price is going to come down much anymore.

Do not buy TVs from Adorama. They in no way shape or form accept any kind of return.

Thanks for this info - I asked the saleman this AM and he said 30 days. When I researched their website and saw that anything >20" was not returnable, I called him back and cancelled. He said thatnks for making him aware of this policy - he didn't know. Yeah right

here is the policy:

TVs and monitors 20" and higher (any warranty claim must be taken up with the manufacturer directly).

Note: Upon delivery, please inspect the TV and insure that it is not physically damaged and in operable condition. DO NOT SIGN the delivery manifest until you have inspected the TV. Once you sign for the item, you are signing acceptance of the product as is. If the merchandise is damaged, please make the notation on the delivery manifest, and have the person delivering the merchandise sign as a witness to the damages and contact us immediately to report the damage.

Yeah, I've had first hand experience trying to deal with a return of a TV from these guys. I tried everything to no avail. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra cash from a website with some customer service. My terrible experience with this website further engrained my loyalty to Amazon.

thanks for the heads up, makes my decision to wait a little longer that much easier.

I am familiar with Samsung 6 and 7 series. To what model of Samsung TV can this Panasonic TV be compared to?

PN60E6500/7000/8000 I'd think.

Pauls Tv still has the deal

60" $1699 (use code SAVE200)
65" $2199 (use code SAVE300)

many of the Panasonics, like all ST50s have bottomed and are trending up. Buy now if you want a GT50.

I bought this TV in the last $1700 sale on Amazon.

Outstanding picture. Along with a Klipsch reference sound system It has made my living room a Temple to epic movie watching.

By the way, forget about ever seeing this TV for less than $1700 (actually amazon was more like 1665 after 3% rewards). At this price range they go fast and if Amazon only carried the price for a couple of days you can reasonably expect that to be the bottom.

And since these TVs (ST,GT,VT) were nothing less than the best TVs of 2012, you have pretty much anyone who reads CNET, etc as your competition for these bad boys.

$1700 is great price and most likely the lowest you will ever see for this set.

+1 on these comments

Adorama CS has already stated many times that they do not accept returns for +20in TVs and this is probably why they have such great prices, particularly on the VT series where they were basically the 1st to have the $2399 for a 65VT50.

I personally view CS as an absolute must when buying such high ticket items. If you find any damage on one of these after delivery and you cannot return them, you have to deal directly with Panasonic which will forever change your perception of "bad customer service" (as will dealing with any manufacturer directly be it Panasonic, Sony, Samsung, Sharp, etc)

Buy, Amazon, Pauls are much better places to buy these high ticket items.
