No Code

This appears to be a better deal than Bing Lee and it can be done over the internet.

mod: Edited title for full description of the deal. I think the OP was comparing this deal to the Bing Lee deal here.

I know this is your first post but could you please edit your post and put the link in there instead of the comments.

Great first post btw

And also, maybe change the title to show the price and some other info. We already know it’s a deal, because we’re reading OzBargain :)

I suggest something like:
Samsung 52” Full HD LCD TV for $1,443

EDIT: Oops, it changed while I was typing!

Is there anywhere in Melbourne have this deal in a shop (prefer to pick up). I was initially looking for the LA46b550 but seem like it is sold out everywhere in Melbourne.

Worth noting, this is an old model and they have no stock, only “available to order”.

It’s entirely possible they can’t get them.

Agreed. Neg given for shonky business - not an isolated incident either. Shops like these don’t deserve support even if they sell cheap (they can afford to do so by stuffing over other customers).

Recently I almost bought my TV from them, then after reading the horror stories I decided against it, esp after speaking to a less than friendly rep over the phone.
At the end got someone else to price match them.
