| 628892 | 2008-04-30 11:35:00 | Ended up going with the above advice, especially after I got HN's salesman admitting Phillips was dodgy junk. After a bit of haggling, I got the Samsung LA46N81BX 46" 1080p LCD for $3500 cash. More than I wanted to spend but for the quality, I think it weighed up. Whats your guys opinions on extended warranties? The Samsung comes with a 2 year manufacturers warranty, HN wanted to add in an extra 4 years @ $366, I declined. But it took a long hard thought to come to that conclusion.. Actually paying for the extra warranty is a scam and money making racket by the dealers. You are covered by the CGA which is law. :) |

Is it just that a $3500 TV should last longer than 2 years, therefore if anything goes wrong I should be covered? Or am I way off track? Sounds good though!! |

| 628895 | 2008-05-01 00:09:00 | My next TV will be full 1080 with at least 3 HDMI ports and 42" plus and hopefully in about 12 months also have built in Dual HD Decoders. I would only choose from Panasonic or Sony. I can wait a while but probably in about 12 months have all Full HDTV's in the house, including having the new MySky2 HDTV box sending to all TV rooms in the house. |

I think even winning NZ Lotto would barely cover what she has for her home entertainment. Jealous?, you bet. |
