Hello LAKS,

Just go to the store and say u have problems with the TV. Or do something unnoticiable to make it not work. No one is going to bother with opening and checking if it is actually working or not. They will give a replacement; which obviously will be labelled with the new price. Once thay scan ur Tvs barcode and new one….u will be refunded the difference in amount.

This has always worked for me. Even when I return electronics after one year but within the Guarantee period.

I am frustrated. I bought 46B6000 for $2099 at BestBuy on 7/19/2009. They dropped $400 exactly on 30th day. Unfortunately I checked only on 31st day. They say they cannot refund the dropped price.

Any one has any ideas how I can get $400? Thanks.

When Might we expect to see the price of the new samsung Super-Slim LED tv’s come down to earth? I am not willing or able to spend 4000 dollars on a 55 inch TV.

I saw the new 8000 series of Samsung at Best buy and I noticed many artifacts on the very fast images, the image was blurry around the football players and ball, I change the 240 Hz settings up and down and nothing happened, my question is, did you have the chance to test this model yet, if yes can you post the results?

I feel so sorry for SAMSUNG. Now these guys are making the same mistake that SONY did for sometime now —— GREED!!!!!!!!!!!!
The way these companies are behaving is so obvious that there prices are not based on actual production cost but on mere marketing strategy. GO TO HELL GREEDY CREATURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the same time, the tougher economy forced more consumers to seek out LCD TV bargains in the period, resulting in value-focused supplier Vizio seizing the top market share position in the category from higher-priced former leaders Samsung and Sony, according to the study.

However, with its Q1 LCD and plasma TV shipments combined, Samsung managed to lead all manufacturers in over all flat-panel TV shipments with 20.5 percent of the market, followed by Vizio at 19.8 percent and Sony at 14.6 percent, Patel Riddhi Patel, iSuppli television systems principal analyst

Ultimately prices are going to have to come down even further.

I wouldn’t be surprised if prices on the UN55B7000 comes down all the way to $2,499 or $2,299. Samsung needs to sell more of these LED HDTVs in order to help people catch onto the new things they’re going to introduce later on down the line.

Charging $3,000 for an HDTV just doesn’t make sense.. not if they’re looking to sell a lot of them and I’d imagine that they are since they’re going through a lot to promote them.

Could there be a HDTV widget marketplace one day? Maybe – but no matter what takes place Samsung is just realizing that it just can’t charge whatever it wants and get away with it. Great for them, and great for us.

I have the 55″ 7000 series and I LOVE IT. I loved it even better by getting $650 back from Frys due the the price drop. I also got a free Samsung Blue-Ray out of the deal.

I think the goods totally outweigh the bads mentioned above.
