I had ordered my TV from Crutchfield before cancelling my order . I'm ready to reorder it. I can get a better deal at a local PC Richards. I haven't even tried Best Buy pricing on a G6. Is it best to order from a local brick and Mortar store or via a reputable online dealer. Returns would be harder with online versus local stores. I'm wary of Best Buy although I bought my Pioneer from them when it was on closeout years ago.

At a personal level, last year no one would do the GM discount on a Z06 Corvette. I ended up buying from a dealer 20 hours away who would. Transaction all done thru e-mail, I had to hire my own freight carrier, flawless transaction I put my money where my mouth was as a consumer.

There are pros and cons to everything. Damages are rare, but happen to everyone including a local store. Manufacturers defects are about 1% or less as far as DOA. Sound not coming on, line of dead pixels, ect ect. If you add in banding and other "known" possible issues you are looking at "about" 5% being semi-picky. A person who is super picky and being a very critical viewer would be better off buying with an easy return.

Been considering giving you a try for sometime now, but always seem to get side tracked with life. Should I call for pricing on the LGB6P and or C6P or PM? .. Seems they're both the same price at BB.. I'm not sure what the difference is (assuming curved vs non) I do own the EF9500 already..

I would go local, even if I had to pay an additional amount for local sales tax. This is a large big ticket item and shipping it back would be a pain even with a return window. Prices are pretty much set by the manufacturer, reason why everyone advertises the same price. If you want to know more details please visit here gecey.com
