NormanD Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 NormanD, interested why/where you think the G10 is at the same level or better as the C509? - Hi mate, I'm selling the Pio due to a change in my personal circumstances, so the Panna 50G10 or G15 would be the next best 50 Full HD TV I could get or even the Sammy 50B550.

dualedge Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Went to JB this arvo and look at the ticket price for Pana 50G10 was $2696. Asked the JB guy about this model, immediately he mentioned this model on special for $1941... asked about 5 years warranty, quoted $280. Also this model entitled for the free Wii console until end of Jan Do you think this is a good deal or I better off waiting the 2010 models considering they are due in few months??

snorri Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Purchased today the 50g10 and 4 years extended warranty for a grand total of $2199 at JB. We too wrestled with the buy one now or later, the wii deal which lasts until the end of this month swung the equation toward buying now...that and I just couldn't find this TV anywhere else up here for the price we purchased it for today, even discounting the 4 extra years of warranty...the advertised $1941 price disappears on the 12th, then I suspect back to 1250 or 1400 depending best deal on this TV alone. Gee it does look good:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if selling a pioneer that was used would get you much more than what it would cost to buy a replacement. good luck, cheers alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newdig Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Heys, could you send me receipt pls? chyeaaah? email the_v8sheen_jp@hotmail.com This is very painful to read.

Frakking Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Can someone explain to me why both Clive Peeters and JB Hi FI (and probably others) are selling the 50" G10 for a lot LESS than the 50" S10?

I thought the G10 was slightly better model? - S models are the more environmentally friendly versions - lower power consumption etc, look at the 54 inch pricing before the $1999 price crash...silly really as the S has less picture adjusmtnets than the G's yet guys on here have picked up 50G10's for a steal.....

The Panasonic S-series isn't more "environmentally friendly" than the G-series. The "eco" tag is a band-aid attached by Panasonic to its TVs in response to the persistent criticism of plasmas for chewing up massive amounts of energy. I agree with scorpion007 in saying that JB have cut a bulk-buying deal with Panasonic (akin to West Coast Hi-Fi being able to sell a stack of 54" S10's for $1999 which was way below others could afford).

He said he could do $1900 for the Sammy 50B550 and four yrs warranty for another $150.. Offered the Panna 50V10 for $2300 and the Sammy 50B650 for $2300 Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trippyfoo Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Where are you getting those prices? Cheapest I've seen a Samsung PS58B550 for is $2599. I was referring to an earlier post by Marty77 - who got the panel for that price.. Back on Dec 31 last year, seems ages ago..lol. either way, to me, $2599 or $2.4k.. still seems stupendously good. Though I just noticed Slippery Slop awesomely good price on the 58" V goodness... More than just awesome... blooming brilliant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
