Hey Obaesom (obaesom), great to hear of the great price u got for the LG Plasma.

I have been overseas for a while and yesterday just went to Parkway to have a look at latest prices. The toshiba is throwing in a 29"tv FOC at the moment.

I was going down to megadiscount this morning to have a look see.

Do tell on the delivery of your set and how it goes.

From my regular shop, I have confirmed that the LG Plasma PX10 is for $4000. Don't know if I should buy.

I ran the Gladiator DVD at it and during the Hell UNleashed scene, there was quite bad grain on it. The philips on the otherhand handled it much better.

Hi Guru,

Actually did not think of buying the TV while at Ming Sheng but suddenly he offer me @ $4K, so agreed to the price lor. Furthermore last month pricing is around $4.5K.

Also I'm not so enthusiastic into Audio/Video as long it is Value for Money, it's OK.

Since price are dropping like avalanche, perhaps U can aim for Japanese made Plasma?

Hi sharon,

I ordered the LG Hurricane 42" Plasma TV Model : RT-42PX10 with wall mount bracket.

If interested can try calling few shops as adviced in this thread so as to get the lowest price.

yeah...I like the LG but the gladiator played crap on it...it looked like a VCD output. I need to find out why. But $4000 is the benchmark to beat.

Alternatively the Philips is $4300.


If anyone is wondering, these prices can be obtain from HDB shops.

Hi Sharon,

Depending on the timing of purchased, the price is bound to drop further, but can't keep on waiting. I'm sure next month U see the price below $4K.

Can call the popular shops ( Goh Ah Bee, Ming Sheng, Etronin, Sweetson , Hong Liang etc ) to find out the lowest price of the model U like.

Hi Guru,

Sorry but only can feedback on Mid Nov as the delivery is on 6 Nov and I have yet to sign for the New SCV too.

Any info from Mega on the bad output for Px10? Have U try "LOTR" , "iRobot" where fast movement scene involves?

Hi XYZ,

Actually you can enhance the performance of LG PX10 . What you can do is buy the samsung dvd player DVD-HD938 (cost about 399) . This is only DVD player with DVI output. Then you use the DVI output connected to the DVI input of the PX10. You can see the difference . I did not try out on PX10 , but i ask the Courts ppl to try on Samsung Plasma TV PS42D4 . You can see the difference . I think this Samsung Plasma will cost about 4K too. Have not checked with Min Sheng yet.

Ken/rest,

the samsung isn't the only one with DVI or vga. I believe some of the china brands like enzer and shinco also have such models.

Even if they use component in for the DVD, it should be sufficient. Imagine what will happen with SCV (even if digital) input? It will be terrible. I will re-run the test at other places.

Just run your DVDs (give the names) and SCV through it. THen give an opinion on the picture quality esp wrt to grainy picture/double images/artifacts etc..

That should be enough. Thx.

Hey all..
Just to comfirm as i was at hong liang today..
Mitsu fridge promotion extended till end nov.
last day of redemtion comfirmed at 15th Dec.
Also found out that we are suppose to redeem the vouchers directly from Mitsubishi.(Service centre)Need to bring stamped warrenty card with proof of purchase from authorised dealers.
As i wont need my fridge till after christmas..
What i did was to pay half the amount of the fridge,go down hong liang on wed to collect my warranty card and proceed to Mitsubishi to collect my vouchers$$$.Will also enjoy the extra year of warranty free.
Theres a guy there also called vincent too..(shocked! haha)
Patient guy,took the effort to explain to me.
Makiyo..About the 0% instalments thiggy..might wanna check with hong liang(62783331).
Thats all the info i've got.
Cheers.

hi sebastian

i went to hong liang too. talked to Ong. the prices he quote is abt $10-20 more ex then other shop, but he mention if we deciced wat we wan to get, he will give a package disc again. which brand plamas u got? n how much? thanks!

Anyone deal with Ong b4? a nice uncle who patiently explain wat i shld look for when deciding on appliances.

he mentioned for washer, never look at brand, juz look at function, coz he said the "used to" reputable brands r now not made in europe anymore. so no need pay for brand.

Hey blessed,
Ong served me before too..but vincent's product knowledge is far better..think you should speak to vincent before you commit to anything..
The plasma i bought is the samsung 42D4 @ $3800 Think deal with younger people better..can get more discount,older people tends to look at profit more.Hahaha..
Cheers

Anyone bought a Panasonic Plasma from them? Cos I bought fr Best Denki and afraid that Min Sheng stuff is not from Japan... Panasonic Plasma stated behind "Made In Japan". Thinking of buying LG fridge from Min Sheng and other appliances

Anyone can verify with me?

hi Sebastian,

Since u gotten ur Samsung Plasma from Hong Liang, means you do not hv extended warranty? I am juz thinking if extended warranty is very impt?

Was quoted $4450 with the agent's extended warranty.. but i chose not to have it.
To me price is a most important factor.I don't belive in insurance too..Hahaha...That's only me.
