Yeah, I bought it yesterday and today it went up $50! I hear Amazon fluctuates with their prices, maybe it'll go down in a week or so.

I saw this TV at Sears on clearnace. The tag had $3200 and on clearance for $2800. I got mine at Best Buy on clearance for $1487.50 That's a big difference and it has in fact increased in price which does not make any sense to me since you can get a 55" LED for close to that price. I agree that below 2K seems more reasonable for this.

Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks? It's like they are trying to make us buy the LNA46750 ($1630 or so). Makes no sense to me...there are apparently many TV buyers at the ready if Amazon wasn't jerking the price all over the place. If they don't get things straightened out shortly, I'll buy it over at Newegg. They're pretty reputable from what I understand, and the Newegg price of $1529 (free shipping) is looking better by the minute - though product appears to be on backorder or something over there. Patience will be a virtue here I guess. Now this thing is up to $1606? is everyone seeing this same price? Why in the world is the price rising like this in $50 chunks?

What a cheap trick by Amazon. Amazon posted this Samsung for $1999 two weeks ago, and now raises price and offers $300 coupon. Sorry Amazon, can't fool consumers. TV always goes lower not higher.

Unfortunately that seems to be the case. I was on the fence about buying this TV set for our bedroom, but there is no way with this new price tag that they're getting my money. I'm with you ... probably wait till the price drops below $900 again.

That is exactly my plan. I am glad you got just what you wanted. I have been watching pricing on 5 or 6 tvs for 6 months or so. The least expensive I have seen the 7000 for is yesterdays $1220 at Amazon. And you got the 8000 for $1000? That is an incredible price! Do you mind my asking where you purchased it? Thanks also for the feedback on the similarity between the 7000 and the 8000. Good luck. Steve

Very good points. I noticed the 630 last night actually was in the $1400s. It seems to have been raised over night.I'm not in marketing, but it seems to me they adjusted the 630's price in order to make the 650 appear as if it is a good deal. Which don't get me wrong. $1550 is a great price for this TV based on other suppliers. However, it's illogical that they are raising the price unless they are simply trying to make more money or are getting low on stock. Either way, like you Stratixman, I won't buy it from amazon at this price. I had planned to use amazon but if they don't lower it back to where it was a week ago, I'll be using newegg. I'll give it a couple days but after that, newegg will have my business. Very good points. I noticed the 630 last night actually was in the $1400s.

Yeah Damon, I think and feel the same way as you do. I had exactly the same untimely response as you did! What a joke GE Money Bank is!!! But, I still thought the 31% off the MSRP of $3500 was a killer offer I couldn't refuse! Now, I see that Samsung has reduced the MSRP to $3200, w/Amazon currently selling at 22% off ~ still not as hot a deal, but pretty darn good- I feel that, that price will probably drop another 4-7% over the next month though! So, why not take the plunge then, and just plop it on another card?

Why does the price of this TV keep going up and down every few days. In the last week it has gone from 559 down to 449 and then when I was ready to buy back up to 479

I agree - the price fluctuations at Amazon on these Onkyo receivers make no sense to me. I have been watching the price on the 706 since December when it was $480 and have watched it fluctuate between $550 and $650 the last couple of months. I was waiting for it to come back down, but when it got to be about the same price as the 806 I started to pay attention to that price too. Both jumped in crazy increments from yesterday to today (the 706 went from $650 to $799 and the 806 went from $611 to $999). Meanwhile another Yamaha receiver I have been watching hasn't moved from $499 since December. Can anyone explain this? Is it Amazon or Onkyo that's driving this? What gives?

The price has gone back up significantly. Just before xmas it was about $1899, and as soon as the shipping deadline passed for xmas it dropped to $1595 and stayed that way most of January. Now I see it selling for $1,999.99 When the price was $1595 the TV was being sold by Amazon, now it appears that the TV is being sold by Cruthfield which is why there is a drastic increase in price. If you really want this TV, I would wait until Amazon starts selling it again.

Amazon doesn't appear to have this TV anymore. $429 was when Amazon was selling it, now the price keeps fluctuating because other stores are selling it through Amazon. I am in the same boat as you and I am waiting to see if Amazon gets it back in stock so the price might be $429 again. Lets keep our fingers crossed...

You are right about the 4665 price fluctuations. I got it from Electronics Express (through Amazon) for $1950 + shipping, problem is they are out of stock. It's been 3 1/2 weeks since my order. Normally I'd cancel and go through someone else, but I now can't find the tv in stock for any less than $2450! I'm not willing to pay an extra $400, so continue to wait for EE to get a new shipment in.

1) The TV rose $135, not $230. 2) Amazon has an EXCELLENT price match policy. I bought mine for $1520 and the next day it went down to $1489 and I got credited the $31 price drop. I wouldn't worry, as I guarantee the price will come back down, probably during labor day weekend. 3) Why did you have to wait to get your paycheck to buy the TV? Sounds like a dumb excuse to me. Put it on a credit card, and that gives you a whole month until you actually have to pay for it.

I was targeting this TV before the Super Bowl, but now I might need to wait. Is it possible for this model to dip below $1600, particularly with new TVs hitting the market soon?
2039480
I agree that this TV is excessively priced, especially since this is an old model as pointed out by Shaq. I don't understand Amazon's strategy. If they are sitting on a bunch of old TVs in their inventory, why don't they price them with a true sales price ?? Like in the week before the Super Bowl for example ?? Just a suggestion... I know I would consider buying it then !!

I'm still holding out hope that the price of this TV will drop again before Christmas. I'm not paying $1800+ for this TV. Supposedly, Fry's was selling it for $1499+tax ($1623 total in Texas) a couple weeks ago.
