Samsung Delivers on 3D Glasses promotion

Samsung to provide 3D glasses directly to consumers who

purchased a 2011 3D TV after April 24, 2011, and who have not yet received glasses

 

RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J., May 19, 2011 – Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, today is announcing the launch of a new site which will allow the company to directly fulfill its previously announced free 3D glasses promotion, which offered two pairs of 3D glasses with all consumer purchases of 2011 model Samsung 3D TVs purchased during the promotion period.

The “two free glasses” promotion will end June 25, 2011. Details for a new 3D glasses promotion will be announced prior to June 26th.
