TV Prices Thread

I'm sure a few of you will be buying TVs and I thought I'd share my research on the prices I have done so far.

If you see cheaper please post them and I will update the post.

First off, the cheapest qualifying TVs for each of the promos currently going on:

Samsung 40B650 with free 22" LCD Television

  • $1773 Good Guys [Cash Price]
  • $1798 Good Guys [Advertised]

Sony 40W5500 with free PS3

  • $1699 Costco
  • $1750 JB Hifi Online

Panasonic P42S10 with free Camera, Home Theatre or DVD Recorder

  • $1588 Dick Smith

Sharp 42D77X with free Xbox 360 and 4 games

  • $1949 Clive Peeters

Here are best prices on the full HD LCD models I have been looking at:
[Cash] means a negotiated cash price,
[Expired] means the offer is no longer available, but these can still be useful for bargaining elsewhere.
Maybe someone else could do plasma?

  • Thanks for sharing rakkie. I'm interested in a Panasonic but I can't seem to see whether the promotion has started yet and if not, when it will…

  • thanks - good info :)

  • I used http://hdtvprices.pbworks.com/ when I was looking to purchase a TV. They sometime put receipts on there so you can get the deals matched.

  • I got the Pana THP46G10A from Myer for $1799, paying on the 24th to get the FREE bonus. Best price I got elsewhere was $2099 HN, and Good Guys said they would beat HN.

    • Do u have a receipt for that you could post?

      • I sent the receipt to claim the Bonus. Happy to send a copy via email once I get it back.

  • I found this is one of the best websites with discussion on TV prices.
