Samsung 19" HDTV TV, Wallmart, $299

[Goomph]

Last night I was at the Walmart supercenter in Oshawa and saw the 19" Samsung LCD TV for 299 dollars. It also has an ATSC HD tuner. The sign said it was down from 414 dollars. I had never seen it so low. I was tempted but I did not go for it. They had two brand new boxes only. They only had the white model at that price. I hope it helps someone.

[freakx2001]

so the standard black model (assuming there is one), isn't on sale? its only the white one?

[supercow]

is this a good deal?

[Goomph]

They had no black ones at all on display or in box. And the white looked a tad pinkish under the lights, but that might just be my eyes.

I think this is a very good deal for the Samsung. The only reason I did not get it because I am saving up for a 40" 1080P 120Hz :)

[freakx2001]

Have to check this out next time I head to walmart... a black 19" would be nice for the Kitchen. Both FS & BB sell 19" Sammys for $399
Here is a black 19" from FS

Here is a White 19" from BB

PM would save you $10. Wonder if it will be in Walmarts flyer this week?

[mself084]

Nice price!

Waiting for someone to say "no thanks it's not 1080p"

[ActiveX]

no thanks it's not 1080p :lol:

[hero]

I remember a fellow rfder posted earlier an LG 20" deal for $299. With an extra 1", isn't this a little better?

[cadave]

There was also the 24" westinghouse for $349 at Crutchfield.

[Composter]

our wal-mart and future shop is in the same parking lot, a few weeks ago I went to the FS to buy a small LCD and they had Insignia's for $349 on a wim I said wal-mart had them on for $239.99 (had no clue) and he gave it to me for $228.99 without even checking? never have I ever had a Pm so easy.

Wow, you must be really lucky coz Insignia is a bestbuy brand which only has availability in FS and BB

[Shrooms]

I can confirm I saw the white one at $299

[consumerPI]

A few select people (10 maybe) got this from the Brick awhile back during their Brick Wild Days for $199.99. Do a search here and you'll find it. That deal is dead though.


L............The sign said it was down from 414 dollars. I had never seen it so low.

[Mike_wang]

no thanks it's not 1080p :lol:
1080p on a 19" that's a laugh.

[ZIgot]

no thanks it's not 1080p :lol:

1080p on a 19" ? .... lol

[golden]

Of course not, because we need 1080p to watch BR movies in the kitchen or washrooms :cheesygri

Sure beats reading magazines/newspapers in the washroom! :cheesygri

Can it be used as a computer monitor:?: Thank you.

yes

[ppl4golf]

It seems a little costly to me given a 19" monitor can be had in the $150 range.

I also really dislike funky incorrect aspect ratio resolution 1440x900 for a 16:9 panel :D

[misterburns]

Just bought this today,

Wow, fantastic, LOVE it. Can't believe the price, prolly gonna pick up another.

Fantastic for spare room and for kitchen.

confirmed walmart $299

thx op

[StealthySocks]

I called in to check and turns out they don't carry Samsungs in the walmarts in GVR. However, I saw in the flyer today that Visions electronics is carrying the Samsung 19inch HDTV for 299 as well.

[Rx-87]

Walmart and Costco sell the 330 series. BB and FS sell the 450 series. No PM.

[tocheapass]

The model they have at Wal-Mart is LN-T1953H (Black) and LN-T1954H (White) they are both on sale for 299.97. They had them both on display at the etobicoke wal-mart but had neither in stock.

The model at FS is LN19A450 (Black) and LN19A451 (White) and cost 449.99.

The only difference i can see is that the Wal-mart models have a more rounded case and have lower contrast ratio 800:1, as oppose to 3000:1 that the FS models have.

[golden]

Anyone found any in stock at Scarborough Town or Markville Walmart?

A HDTV usually has two turners, a ASTC turner to receive over-the-air high definition digital TV channels and a NTSC turner to receive over-the-air analog TV channels. It also has many inputs such HDMI, component inputs, SVHS inputs, RCA video inputs, and audio inputs.

A regular LCD monitor is lacking the turners and all of the inputs. It only has a DSub input and a DVI input to connect to a computer. Due to it lacking all the inputs, you cannot connect it to other video device, so it is not suitable to use it as a regular TV unless you always connect to your computer and your computer has a TV turner.

You can get a brand new 20.1" LCD monitor for $200 ($180 if you have coupon code) at Staples.ca this week. So you will save about $50 for buying used.

Bayview & Major Mack - OOS
Etobicoke - OOS
Vaughan - White is OOS but there were a handful of black ones left

Running mine on the DVI input with windows as extended desktop.

i now consider this tv was an open box, because there was a cosmetic bracket missing in the box. (there are 2 brackets for when you fix the tv on the wall. The remote was unopened and the batteries were in their plastic bag.
ALl i know is that the clerck had to call someone to authorize the new price when i was paying. For what i heard, the price change was made on monday. At that price even de display models were gone this morning 8AM.

Yeah its suppose to come with two plastic brackets to cover the wall mount, its a cosmetic thing though. the wall mount will still work without the brackets.

i wanted to ask if the display models would be cheaper, but the one at my wal-mart was in pretty rough condition. But i probably would have still taken it instead for 150...

[wmahmud]

[tocheapass]

I am 100% sure the price at sears will be 349.94, cause I sold one display model to the customer yesterday.

PS: I think more sales associate come to this website, will be more fun here.:lol:

[wmahmud]

just called a certain location in Toronto and was told the current scanning price is still $299....not sure where people are getting $150..

but they are willing to sell the display model (both black or white) for $240..

is that a good deal? how long do you think these things have been left on for?

[sazaks]

Best Buy has the 22" 4 series on sale for $449 Reg. $549. Managed to get an open box unit that had been returned that day for another $100 off.

Hooked up the set last night and was surprised that I receive 10 Digital Cable channels that Rogers left unencrypted.

May I ask what kind of channels these are? Are they actual TV stations or just radio.

[prettyha8]

Just called Walmart-Etobicoke. They are OOS.

He said the model number is "LN-t1954h", and $299 is a regular price, not a sale price. They should get stock in next week. And they will not sell the demo model.

The store I work at has like 2 or 3 in the back. I noticed we had a bunch of Samsung 19"s in the back so was about to put it out and realized it was last year's model and didn't bother. But it's a clearance item so iirc, the price match policy doesn't cover it. We can't PM Wal-Mart on it.

54h is the white one and 53h is the black one.

Sorry, i get the feeling i was very lucky, or the manager at the walmart i went really reduced the tv too much. In any case i am very happy and very sorry no one seems to have found the same deal. I should have bought the black display model also, it was in very good shape, in an as new condition.

No mention of a final sale at the store or on my receipt.

[wmahmud]

No need to be sorry, you got a great deal.

Any chance you can post a reciept scan ? or PM me with it?

That would be awesome.

[sazaks]

I pickup 20 or so Digital Radio Channels and

Fox Sports
Millitary Channel
CTV
CBC English (Montreal)
Miracle Channel
VRAK (French)
BET
CNN HD
A&E HD
HDnet

I also did a little reseach and I can also see what people are watching on Rogers Video on Demand in my neighbohood.

At FS 50" samsung plasma PN50A450 reg1799.99, I saw it on sale before. if you have choice, do not take the display model! especially for plasma. because they turn on at least 12 hours per day, if it is on display three month, it is equal 1 year to 2 year for the normal use. the nomoral life time will be 60.000 hours.

[wmahmud]

So its the exact same model? Walmart sells it cheaper then Futureshop?

Wow..surprised...
