This is last years model. The price is more clearance and close put than black Friday type deal.

Do you think it will be cheaper on black Friday?

I still see it being able to purchase and ship. Had to search for the TV on Best buy though. Not through this slickdeal link.

This is a clearance price on the 2025 flagship - will probably be sold out by BF.

The 98 inch QM8K was frequently on sale for this price. I purchased one and I'm extremely happy with it.

Can't beat a flagship TV for an upper mid range price - higher brightness and more dimming zones than the excellent QM8K - super slick!

Not an expert in tracking sales but I would think they would have more stock for black Friday. Maybe even a better deal?

Thanks OP. I was able to get BB to price match my purchase of this set from back in July (bought a BB Plus membership w/ it just for this circumstance).

PQ is quite impressive. My previous 3 TVs were all OLED (LG & Sony). This set is just as good or better than those OLEDs in 95+% of scenes - but the size and brightness are on another level than the previous 77 OLED I had in the space - and imho that is well worth the trade off. It's way heavier though.

Unlikely to have a better deal on this unit on BF - this is old stock. They are most likely trying to clear out the last of these units still left in inventory (why it's not available in all areas/locations). However, you will likely see a slightly better deal on the newer 98QM8L on BF (minor tradeoffs either way to consider between the two).

Just appears to be sold out across most of the Northeast, only location near New Jersey with them is Baltimore and Lancaster and not shipping to NJ.

I originally purchased this for $3000 and scheduled it for next week delivery. The price on this just went down to $2300 last night. I was able to get refunded $700 difference by calling Best Buy customer service. For anyone who also got lucky and got one before it sold out.
