After winning a Poker Tourney in Laughlin this past week (Thank you thank you :rockon:) I was in the market for a 3D TV..

Anyone know where to find refurbished or slightly used to purchase??

I have been all through craigslist and ebay and the only guy I found, sold the last one minutes before I got there...

One other thing, does anyone currently have a 3D TV from Sony/Samsung, How do you guys like it?! Really hoping to snag one before the Superbowl this year...

PM me or post on here, Thanks a million fellas!

Congrats on your win.

If I were to purchase a 3DTV, (not enough content available) I'd be looking at the Samsung and Panasonic models. How big and how much are you wanting to spend?

I was looking to spend around $2000.. as far as the size, 50'+, either Sony or Samsung... but obviously open to all well known brands..

A little out of your price range, but this is the one I am holding out for:

http://www.vizio.com/led-lcd-hdtvs/xvt3d650sv.html

Built in wifi and you don't need the special $200 rechargeable glasses. Regular theater glasses (Real3D) are fully compatible.

That TV does look sweet.. my only issue with nly a 120Hz refresh rate, you would think a top f the line tv like that would at least have 240...

I will be using it mainly for sports and gaming, so the refresh rate is a pretty big deal.. i wonder why they stuck with 120?

Just buy the giant couch so you can have huge poker tournaments in your living room, build up that stack, then go get the dopest 500 inch plasma flat screen LCD, LED , 3D on LSD tv you can find.

1. Amazon.com is awesome. Deliver in less than 2 days, and will give you the cheapest price anywhere.

After a quick search I found these three....
1 - http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-PN50C...ref=sr_1_3?s=tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1295744628&sr=1-3
2 - http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-VIE...ref=sr_1_7?s=tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1295744628&sr=1-7
3 - http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-PN58C...ref=sr_1_9?s=tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1295744628&sr=1-9

#'s 2 and 3 seem perfect.

Thanks brother.. these definently deserve a long look... To be honest I have never considered amazon to buy a tv.. very interesting..

Dude.... I bought a $2,300 Samsung LCD 2 years ago for $1,499. Best decision I ever made. Ordered on Dec 21st 2008, Delivered on Dec 24th at 11am. Free shipping....Amazing.

After looking at them again, #2 & #3 seems to be perfect.

And right now # 3 is $1,618.32!!!

you can see the final price in your final checkout screen. If I were you, and I was looking for over 50 inches, and I saw that deal and it was $300 below my budget, I might drop my sack.

That's a great deal, but I am surprised that they charge tax. Is Paul's in Arizona?
