hmeshow Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 My Husband and I bought this online today for $699 It is normally $999.. I was just wondering if anyone has this? Wal-Mart has an RCA 52 inch for $474 and I am just lost..
shark1 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I bought it this past Tuesday from the store, will be delievered Wednesday! Cant wait! I have heard mostly good reviews about it.
vegas2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 51 inch what? and where did you get it? is it plasma, LDC, or projection, thanks
rjfisher72 Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 I also bought the Hitachi 51" CRT rear projection HDTV, it has received mostly very good reviews since its a good brand and has a built in HD tuner and a HDMI jack. The RCA has received pretty bad reviews. There is actually a website that has a whole blog about how bad the RCA HDTV is with the set fizzling after 3 months or less and a total lack of customer service. Also the RCA does not have an HDMI input.
heatherlin7 Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 we bought this today too, it will be delivered on wednesday. did LOTS of research first, and this was a good buy, overall this set has very good reviews. Granted, it is the "old" CRT technology, but it has good optics and if you don't mind going for the reliable and tried and true technology instead of the newer lcd's plasmas etc, then this seems to be a great buy. Additionally, the newer dlp projection tv's have a bulb that needs changed when it burns out (could be every couple of years) and they run upwards of $300 just for a bulb! With this tv, there will be no bulbs to replace as it is CRT. I hope for the money that we will be pleased with this set.
heatherlin7 Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 you were able to get the $699 price online from bestbuy?
f150 Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 Got mine yesterday from Circuit City, Ordered on line for $699. Was waiting for me when I got there. So far I love this TV, Beautiful picture and sound.
pogiporkchop Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 Mine is on order too, I was lucky with the line that was to be had.
