Help! Can't decide between Samsung TVs

Futureshop has the Samsung 6 series LCD 55" 120hz 1080p for $1399 but Bestbuy has the 5 series LED 55" 60hz 1080p for $1199 ..

Main differences are obviously LED / LCD and the contrast ratio and thickness (not important)
3,000,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio / 120,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio

What would you guys do in this situation? Thanks!

I say the biggest difference is the 60 vs 120 hz.

I would spend the extra money. Seems like a good amount of upgraded features for the price difference.

Depending on the extra features, if you dont really care for them i would go with the LED. The LED screen will use less power and last longer then the LCD well at least the screen will anyways as LEDs are rated at a higher life then LCD.
