You know, I could swear that this is the Television that my local Best Buy had multiple items of for open box purchase...all the time, seemingly. Anyone know anything about this set before I get crazy?

Wait, I don't have anywhere to put the thing anyway...:(

Just ordered with American Pie DVD. Hope it comes through. At the check out page, the DVD is for 2-Day delivery but the TV is for "Limited Store Pick-up Available." Did anyone else get that?

Well I was about to put my order in but I am worried that they'll cancel the TV order and ship me the dvd/cdrw that I don't really need/want. so I'll end up losing lik $20 due to shipping and their charges. Especially since many have confirm this is out of stock.

My thoughts exactly, what's there to lose?

My order will probably be cancelled, this won't be as huge as the GF4 fiasco but close and we'll all probably receive free BB GC's.

bonk
you can't get in? I just did it a few minutes ago. You put something in your cart before adding the tv, etc?

OK, I got in on this too. Thanks to the tip of adding a second item!

Well, look at it this way -- since so many of us tried so hard to get in on this, if you get it (through some miracles) it would be so easy to sell you might even make a good profit; and if it gets cancelled, there's always the chance of getting another $30 GC from BestBuy (if we make a noise loud enough after they cancel our orders)...

This was taken advantage of by quite a few FW members, and almost all of our orders were cancelled. Good lucky trying to get in now...don't be too surprised when it is cancelled.

yeah i was just about to say, a lot of people did this over at fw and it's not working. i doubt they'll give you anything since you are abusing the system.

Well, I'm in too. Expecting this to come through as well as the GF4 debacle. Funny thing is, I decided to check my order history...my last 3 orders from Best Buy were all cancellations from price errors

I think this one's gonna make that list 4 cancelled. :D
