zirhk3355 1 Report post Posted April 27, 2007 I love it! Esp the blue light at the bottom.Last check at best denki is about $2688 with "free gifts" (do note the other thread with the free gifts gotta wait long long, so dun bank too much on it). The price should be lower if you go to neighbourhood shops, but I haven't check yet.However I am also considering pioneer's 42" plasma one. Best price I found as of now is $3300.

How big is it?Nope, no white version for r81 yet, but should be coming out soon.They are now promoting the white r71 (with that red lips below) and black r81 together.hi where u got the quote for the pioneer at $3300? this price is nett price or price after minus off free gifts, etc?

I am talking about the 427XG, which is 42", not the 50" one leh.Just went to Best Denki earlier this week, they offered me $3388 nett with home theatre. I got the same at neighbourhood shop, lower price $3300.But have not buy yet, because will wait until reno is done then buy. Should be even cheaper because electronics' prices always go down, never go up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lurgee 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2007 The R81 is a really nice and popular model. If you don't want a full HD tv then it's a good choice imho.Harvey Norman is having a sale/promotion of sorts now.Now buy Samsung tv got quite good freebies leh.Can get laser printer or HD setup box from Starhub or Samsung HTS.As for me, cannot decide between the F7 and now newer model M8.Headache ah.

zirhk3355 1 Report post Posted May 1, 2007 Visited best denki at Great World today - I see what you meant.Pioneer 427XG is displayed at $4499 while panasonic is indeed at $3688.But if you just drag a salesman over to ask, you will realised that the display prices are big farce; the salesman will tell you now got 'promotion', and give u a lower price.

swatdila 1 Report post Posted May 3, 2007 funny hor, display such big prices will just scare off customers.. haha.. anyway i will try to ask when i seriously start tv hunting...the panasonic i was referring to is not the 3688 model, it is the pv60 i thk, 2899 or wat.. get $500 ntuc voucher. so effective price is abt 2.4k which is quite worth it i feel... of coz i prefer the pioneer. hahaVisited best denki at Great World today - I see what you meant.Pioneer 427XG is displayed at $4499 while panasonic is indeed at $3688.But if you just drag a salesman over to ask, you will realised that the display prices are big farce; the salesman will tell you now got 'promotion', and give u a lower price.
