Would appreciate some feedback from people who have bought their products. lookwise the pioneer is nice cos of the piano black gloss finish, i got the 427XG too..but it isn't a true 1080p panel.If u really don't mind paying more, u can consider this Sony LCD KLV-40X200A, has better specs than the Pioneer one. My hb likes this but i don't like the look. Edited May 4, 2007 by compassvale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm was I cheated?? Sort of regretted the buy cos would have been able to buy more stuff with tat amountHi nunu, cannot say you have been cheated lah. consider it as buying insurance for your tv ba... years back i bought a Hitachi plasma together with the safety5 at Best Denki, back then the plasma screen was over 10k i remembered, so i tot it was ok to pay a lil more for the safety5.but nowadays plasma tvs much cheaper...if spoil, get a new one ba...the safety5 also just pay u back a certain percentage as the years go by....ultimately it's up to you whether u need the extended warranty or not Edited May 8, 2007 by compassvale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weevenge 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 you want to sell ah?sell cheap cheap to neighbour can? me still thinking should get hitachi (cheaper) or pioneer (nicer)...how guys by the time Gen8 pioneer come out it is going to be much more expensive .... then its another cycle of waiting and then Gen9 coming .... its endless waiting .... IMHO ... as long as price is good and the functionality suits the users... can go and buy liao ...BTW latest news... i receive a broucher from audio house... inside PIONEER PDP427 selling 50% off original listed price of $4400+ .... so nett nett it is going to be 2k + only! super good buy .... infact most of the plasma in audio house going for 50% off.... but all got * beside it .... anyone knows wat is the catch or gimmick behind it ??cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
