BillieBog Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Why is the Phillips 51" HDTV advertised at Circuit City so cheap?? At $800 it is less than half the price of other large screen TV's. Help someone. http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/Item/3294 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Because it's somewhat old technology, a large and HEAVY rear projection TV. Most newer TV's are DLP, LCD or Plasma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillieBog Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 Thanks for the reply. But is it worth the extra weight? It looks like it won't be made obsolete when HD becomes the standard. The room I would be putting it in is pretty big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The room I would be putting it in is pretty big.But it is an HDTV ready TV, just make sure you have a good source cable, satellite or OTA receiver. If you have the space and don't mind the size/weight, BUY IT. You can order it online now, not sure how much shipping is. http://blackfriday.gottadeal.com/Item/3294 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alimfp Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Estimated delivery cost is $50 (without inputting zip code), not bad for such a large/heavy item IMO. :) Though when I attempt to checkout (before putting in CC info, just trying to get an accurate ship estimate), it says.. We're sorry, circuitcity.com is unable to process your transaction at this time. All items in your shopping cart have been saved and will be available for checkout shortly.
