Yes I contacted Amazon to varify that the A to Z policy applies and we are covered if we never receive the TV, I did also contact the vendor with few questions only to get replies that didnt answer anything i asked at all? plus it seemed like he had issues spelling and putting sentences together kinda of lead me to believe it could be some sort of a overseas scam maybe?

I always thought that consumers had 30 days (sometimes 14 depending on the store) to return an item for any reason so why would you not just return the TV and get your money back? I cannot believe that Amazon would not work with you in this instance. This is a reply to William C. Reitz Jr. "Techie" post above. EDIT: I found this on the Amazon.com returns policy area: "Televisions 27 Inches and Larger Amazon.com cannot accept the return of televisions 27 inches and larger after delivery. Upon delivery, please inspect your television carefully for damage while the shipper is still present. If you discover any damage, please refuse delivery and you will receive a refund. Your signature on our carrier's delivery receipt acknowledges that you understand our return policy. After the release form has been signed, returns of televisions 27 inches and larger will not be accepted. If you accept delivery and later find out that the television is not working properly, please check the paperwork that came with it to see if the problem is covered by a manufacturer's in-home service warranty. All televisions 27 inches or larger come with one. If you are unable to locate warranty information for a particular model, contact the manufacturer." How in the heck can Amazon.com get away with this? This is totally ridiculous! I will NEVER buy a TV from Amazon!

I hope not. I purchased this TV on Saturday and the ad mentioned only that it would not be delivered until after the 25th of December------ 1to 2 months was nowhere in the ad.

I've had this TV since November 06 and I've watched the supplier change here on this site several times. Sometimes it is Amazon, sometimes someone else. I'd just be patient and I bet it will once again come back to being sold by Amazon.

Even though these comments seem to be favorable to CEVA, I have had some big issues. I ordered a TV on July 27. On Aug 3rd, 4 days after scheduled delivery I find out the package has been "misplaced" and I will need to reorder. Well after about 2 hours on the phone between CEVA and Amazon I finally got the package rescheduled for delivery. Today is the 14th, the scheduled day of the re-delivery, and no TV. Now the weekend is coming and CEVA's contact hours are between 8-5 Mon-Fri. CST. I am about to my last straw with CEVA. This will be the last large purchase I make on Amazon...

I would first see the listings on ebay for either parts or a broken tv. Then I would post an ad on craigslist. finally contact panasonic.

OK, Got an update that the TV will be here on the 15th from Amazon, but tracking says the 13th. Tracking also says "whiteglove" which wasn't the terms when I bought the TV. I'll take it!

I was passing time and looked up this TV on the Sony site to see what the cost is now because I bought it in December '08. I really like it and was surprised to see that Sony has discontinued it. It's disappointing to find my expensive new TV already obsolete. Anyone know why that would be, especially so soon? It's gotten good reviews.

Interesting that it has now gone to "unavailable" and cannot be found through Amazon search - I can only get here because it is in my wishlist. Have they abandoned this?

I'll add another in the chorus of frustration here. . .I even had the stupid thing in my shopping cart from a couple of days ago because I was doing research on some other components I wanted to order at the same time. I got a "nice" message when I logged in today of the (multiple) price increases. Come on, Amazon, that's like walking up to someone in the store and putting a new sticker on something in their cart!!! On the bright side, however, this TV is $2,999 at Best Buy. . .and I'd have to pay 10% tax to boot!

I paid for the television but the seller will not give me tracking information until he receives payment from Amazon. Amazon claims he was paid. So, I am caught in the middle. I don't know if this whole sale is real or not. I can't file any claim with Amazon until 3 days after the "scheduled" delivery time, which conveniently was posted as 2 week span by the seller. And, Amazon will not contact the seller or intervene on my behalf. So, buyer "beware"!!!

To determine if there was a bad batch that went out, How about everyone that is getting that crackling sound, post the manufacturing date of their TV on here. I for one am not having the issue, but would be happy to post mine for comparison.

I just posted the same question - I was 1 week away from buying this TV (pay day) and suddenly it's only being sold by a 3rd party. Amazon DID begin carrying the item after your post (Oct 2007) but I wonder if this was the final runout :(

I am also a potential buyer of this TV. Seemed too good to be true... I received the email stating the item was in stock - even though it mysteriously disappeared from the website yesterday evening.. They said they would ship from Italy after dealing through Amazon. The email was sent from sales.shipsound@gmail.com - This I thought was odd. I went to Shipsound.com and found the contact us link at the bottom. ShipSound's main office is in Delaware and their email questions address is sales@shipsound.com.I truly believe that this is a scam and it should be escalated. I am also a potential buyer of this TV.

I have one if you want to buy it... my tv stopped working after 1 month of use over a period of 1 year at our summer home.

It is interesting how Amazon is having this and other Bravia TV's 'on sale' on March. They say they have taken $300 off the price but the price is actually gradually going up ... two days ago when the ad first came out this 52" TV was $1699 (still higher than the $1450 or $1650) and now it is $1719. I really wanted to get it when it was lower and do not like this jacking the price around and claiming 'sale' when it has not gone down at all this month -- only Up, Up, Up!
