Deal Details
Had been eyeing this TV for a while.
Got an amazing price on the LG C8 OLED - $1499. First put in a price of 1300 and then got this offer which I accepted. YMMV.
Includes tax.

So for me in CA, it is a saving of at least $800.

Agreed on all counts. Plus Greentoe doesn't charge tax I
believe?
Correctamundo. I think they intentionally only consider out-of-state retailers for you to avoid the sales tax.

Does this mean that any purchase before Aug. 26 will still qualify for 3 months of price protection?
Yes.

Oh wow I might have to jump on that since I was thinking of getting the E8 since abctv has it for $1199. What are the chances of getting approved PP using them?
Those orders from ABCTV almost guaranteed won't ship... they are even lower than tvsuperstores, which is crazy... You'll get a bait and switch call or email, I can almost guarantee it.

Make sure you use either of them for price protection, but don't ORDER from them hah

I made the mistake a couple of weeks ago ordering a 55E8PUA from zibdeals for $1399. They called the next day with some BS about it being a Chinese panel, but would sell me the Korean made LG Panel for $500 more. I think all of these lowball places are bait and switch operations. I cancelled, but now will just have to monitor my card just in case.

You are correct. They are all bait and switch. Absolutely worthless companies. I THINK there was a list of them here somewhere at one time.

My parents are in the market for a new 55" TV. I'm tempted to buy this for them too while Chase PP is still alive and hope for a lower price ad in the next 3 months...

EDIT: Aaaand done... https://www.abctvs.com/prodinfo.phtml?id=3753
I got the go-ahead from my folks to buy one at $1,499 with the expectation of $500 PP. Greentoe was quick to counteroffer at that price.

Now I have $1,000 riding on Chase PP going through OK OMG

I hope you all get BILLED by 8/25 if you are using Chase PP. Beach/Buydig is closed until Sunday (too late), and unless you specifically tell Greentoe to bill you before it ships, it might already be too late.

Discover is the last hope for purchases on 10/30 or earlier (or accept $200 Citi PP).

Ordered yesterday through them for $2,299.
I tried at 2199, and they countered at 2299. Ebay has 2249, so I'm waiting... I think someone will bite, it's in the range. Stinks that I missed the 5% cashback yesterday from eb8s on ebay it's down to 3 now.

Does PP still works if I use a gift card? I am going to see if Dell can PM and I can use their GC from their deal few months ago.

This is awesome. Were you able to file the claim already? And did you use the shipping retailers name or greentoe?
I use chase and my card has been charged today.

They already tried to bill me but for some reason there's always some issue with payment. Chase says there's no fraud block and a charge and refund show as pending activity. It's pretty annoying since Greentoe doesn't have phone customer service.

Ebay bucks will knock $100 off for a little while longer (until 11:59pm PT).

Best deal on a 65 to buy in the next day that has good PP potential? (Doesn't have to be OLED) Looking to get the price down to somewhere around $1500 after PP.

They tried to pull the same crap on another poster. He told them to cancel the order. He'll just go somewhere else. Greentoe magically was able to fix it and the charge went through.

Greentoe has been pulling this crap all week on SlickDeal buyers.
