Pioneer PDP-LX508D - Unwanted Order

Just had a phone call from my local dealer to say my set is in.
Issue is that I received one of these pre-xmas.

Price is £3k if anyone wants to deal with them (same price they quoted me)

This isn't going in classifides cos its not me selling, i just thought I'd post as a few people are looking at these sets

Its in stock and I would imagine they'd deliver (for a fee)

With the new Panasonics just around the corner - I think anyone should consider whether to wait - unless you have money to burn.

Cheers for that....failing to see the relevance of your comments to my post. It's aimed at people who want an LX508 at a good price not to start a debate on upcoming rival products (of which there is already plenty of threads).

Touchy touchy

It might not be a good price, if Pioneer drop their pricing in the next two months - it was meant to be a note of caution suggesting that Pioneer may soon have to compete a little bit more.

Re: Pioneer PDP-LX508D - Unwanted Order

Purely speculative.

As its stands it's a very good price.

working on your logic no one would ever buy anything as the next greatest thing is just around the corner all the time in AV Land.

Re: Pioneer PDP-LX508D - Unwanted Order

Just to point out here, this will be done purely through the dealer not me as an intermidary.
Good price, be a shame to see it go to waste by them charging someone else higher.

Change the record Gussie, you're getting more and more tedious. If someone wants a great 1080p plasma, it's there for 3k, take it or leave it. Thanks andy, hope you get sorted. I wish i had the cash, need to shift an xd first
