I went to 3 psp's before I got one without a dead pixal.
From what I red they envision used refurb LCD's thats why it's so cheap.
Should of went for the samsung for 50 more. Much better quality IMO. I got one I love it.

This will probably be my last year I will do it only because the people there are just plain a-holes. This years deals weren't even THAT great to begin with.
I arrived around 3pm to scout the bestbuy, and there was already 14 chairs..ALL EMPTY
outside the bestbuy...
I'm like okay maybe they went to get food or something. 3 hours later they show up
and say they had placed their chairs there to save their spot. 1 lady said she had
put her chair there Thanksgiving morning to save her spot. I told her she wasn't supposed
to be doing it like that and she said she didn't care. Towards the end of the nite when
tickets were about to be given out..massive amounts of people tried to cut the line.
I ended up getting what I wanted, but its total insanity. Everyone was pushing and pulling
and it really was a sad moment for just people. Yeah there are some deals but to be
doing all that to just get a ticket..i mean come on.
Then you had people getting tickets and selling them. 1 guy sold the toshiba ticket for
250 bucks!!! I couldn't believe that someone would pay that.
I don't think i'll be doing it next year...unless they have some REALLY crazy deal.

I'm just mad
-
Sadly there is no point this year, doesn't seem like I'll be going.
Got the laptop last year, not point other then that this year. Good luck guys!
-
Honestly, I'd just get another person to get that item for you. I know last year the bestbuy by me did't have enough of the item and they just gave the items to who ever claimed them
first.
-
If you look at page 3 in the ad it says "Shop Thanksgiving Day at BestBuy.com. Checkout bonus Friday Door Busters in stores only" I don't think it is coming out until Midnight on Weds.
I really hope not
-
So i guess it was for this weeks sale. Still a sick deal..1400 and you get that and a 360.
-
Honestly, if you really are a videophile then you will notice it, but I'd say the average
person wouldn't be able to tell truthfully.
-
I wouldn't see the problem. It's probably BS, to avoid it just go into the line and not
seem like your together. If anything, bring a backup card if they do bitch.

You gotta make sure there is a HD feed going to the TV. A lot of times they don't have
a HD feed...
Like the 65in toshiba was on 480i and it looked like crap, i asked them to put a HD signal
and they hooked up a blueray player with Fantastic 4..it looked REAL good.

The bestbuy I was at last year, (hartsdale, Ny), did it like this.
At around 4am they said they were going to start handing out tickets and for everyone
to start putting stuff away and make a 1 line file against the wall. They would then
go to each person and tell you the item and if you wanted it. There was about 1 or 2 employee's per item category. (all tv, laptops, ect ect) It was possible to get 1 of each item
if someone wanted to. There was people about 50 places back that got some door buster
items. The laptops and the 32in Westy went pertty fast. I'd say after the 20th person
they were all gone.
Also,
each ticket had a number. 1-2-3-4-5...as each box for door busters had a number.
They was 15 laptops..15 tickets were handed out. You were able to get the items up intill 12pm. So it was possible
to get a ticket, go home and sleep and just make sure you were there before 12pm for the item. I wouldn't suggest
that as they handed out 15 tickets, and I went to pay for my tv first. The person who had ticket #11 didn't
get their laptop cause someone must of sold it. You gotta make sure you get the items ASAP so you don't get
****ed over.
-
I'm going to check a 3rd bestbuy out and ask the guy I kinda know there what he thinks..I'm
sure he will give me a straight answer on what's going on. For some reason I have a feeling
this guy doesn't know what he's talking about.
-
Now I don't know if this is official but I went to my local bestbuy to look at TV's.
I noticed something a bit strange...the 56' in samsung was removed from the floor.
Which i wanted to look at because I'm planning on buying it. So I go ask the rep and he
says they were told to take the floor model to the back and keep the remaining inventory
in the back. I asked why and he said he doesn't know but guesses it will be a item on bf
because they just received a skid wrapped in black shrink wrap with about 20 of them
with an order to not sell any till friday. Now I don't know if he was bull****ting me, so I went
to the other bestbuy and their tv was aslo put away.
Is this a special item that will be announced????
-
I went and checked this puppy out at BestBuy today...
It is Beautious!!!!!!! I think only plasmas have that shiny
reflective screen. THe guy did tell me though that because
this was a BF 2 day sale item, I could purchase it now, price adj.
during the two days plus get 10% of the difference...I have to
keep telling myself that even though I'm putting out more money
I am getting a stand and the convenience of delivery.
Stand is awesome deal though, totaly worth it
-
The tv is nice but you can grab a 56in samsung for pretty much the same price off amazon..
Not to mention you can get a even better one, free shipping and no tax.
-
this is my last hope for Black Friday...if not I'll be sleeping.
-
Does anyone remember when bestbuy added the items that weren't on the ads.
I could of sworn last year they added the 250laptop like a few days before the BF.
Can anyone else confirm this or am I losing my mind?
-
I've heard the difference between 720p and 1080p is hard to see with the naked eye, plus this is looking like the best TV deal out ther this BF (Where are all the deals, lets hope Walmart steps it up a little) I read the reviews on the CC website and it seems good if not great, so can anyone tell me why not to get this TV, other than the fact that it's not the 1080p version?? Also is there any chance the 1080p version will be a little cheaper on BF?? I know I just contradicted myself there, but I wanted to get all the info I could before I made a decision... Thanks in Advance :)
On a 50in tv you will definitely see it. 32in is really the highest you can get and not
worry about it not being 1080p...anything over you definitely see the difference.
-
I'm not sure where you looked I read some HDTV reviews and they liked the Mitsubish better
I'm saying I SAW both at the store and the toshiba looked better. The Mistu had a really
bad viewing angle.
-
Ya, there was 2 guys last year that put 2 chairs down and went back in their cars. Just
sat there till about 4am. Mind you it was raining and everyone else was in line. It sucked
but hey,,what are you gonna do?
-
The mitsubishi has much better ratings from all the TV rating sites including consumer reports I have looked at. We have decided to go with it. Hubby is out at BB looking at it now. I hope he brought a bib for all the drool
I looked at both and it seemed the Toshiba was better.
-
What are your thoughts on the Toshiba/Mitsubishi 65in from CC and BB???
-
720p it what kills it...spend a bit more and go for 1080p
