Panasonic 42px70 - cheapest price?

[dbaplaya]

Searching on the net for this set. Checked last week and it was going for around £635 but now its gone up to £675. I think as this set is being discontinued and stock is low then its pushing prices up.
Has anyone seen it cheaper. What is the cheapest price from JL? Would be handy as they have 5 year warranty.

thanks
Dave

John Lewis in Watford currently have it at £699 without the stand.

Nice one Dan.I phoned jl watford to confirm-- but no delivery to my area.Then phoned nearest jl store they wanted £799.I told them of Watford price (£699)-they phoned Watford to check and within 5 mins phoned me back and offered to match the price inclu free delivery and 5 year guarantee. So naturally--I snapped their hand off!
This is a cracking deal as most other retailers want extra £250 for 5 year cover which would put the base price of this tv at under £450. BARGAIN!

Well done on the new telly! I need the PED version myself and am waiting to hear back from them on a price match at £699 for that. Here's hoping...!

im going down tomorrow to see if they will match price for £699 and throw in the ped stand. i asked on the phone today and the ped stand is £99 and the cab is £139 - which seems a very cheap price as argos are selling this for £300 on its own!

I got a JL pricematch for £600 for the PED version last week (High Wycombe) branch - I think they may be clearing stock...

£600 for the PED version of the 42PX70??!!

I've never seen it that cheap anywhere before... £699 seems to be the best price on this one currently.

Who did you get that price from? Or have you hit '0' twice instead of '9' there?!

hmmmm £600 with ped sounds too good to be true.
Dan let me know if you manage to get the ped in at £699 and how you managed it. (I've tried and failed)

[Chiba Cowboy]

****. Sorry I meant £699! Sly posting at work does not for accuracy make.

Anyway, £699 is a good price with the stand. I'd say a bargain with the warranty and delivery included.

You will get the TV at £699 as they still have them in stock. The CAB is a great price at £139 but not in stock and will not be stocked again. I can't find anywhere to buy it at less than £299, anybody help?

The PED is also out of stock, but can be ordered in.

where did you price match from? thanks

Phone your nearest jl store(check website).Ask for their price then tell them jl Watford branch selling item(without stand)for £699.They will check this and price match with free delivery and 5 year waranty. This is best deal so far - if you want the ped(may not be in stock) try to get them to throw that in but I doubt they will. I get the feeling this is a clearout job(maybe the next generation of pan is due--and that you can bet will be pricey!), so get one while you can.

my dad tried getting a price match yesterday with JL bluewater for a 42px70 cab but they said the cab is out of stock and discontinued on their system

this doesn't sound right to me - i'm sure they're still advertising on the shop floor

Hi

With regards to the cab i was BW today its true discontinued from their system no longer available

regards

I bought the cab version from sound & vision in Bolton before xmas for £900. They do have it still but the price seems to have gone up to £999, which tends to suggest it is a sellers market and the cab version is getting difficult to source now.
