How are stores handling the (at last claimed) inability to discount the Sony TV on receipts? I got told by Best Buy if they discounted it, head office would write them up. And Visions sales guy more or less said he likewise couldn't discount it for fear of his job.
Did you have to buy something else along with the TV for the store to move the discount over to that item? Or am I just being fed a line of BS from these people who just didn't want to make a sale? Trying to understand how some stores (including Visions) are discounting a TV they "claim" can't be discounted or else Sony will smite them. Really frustrating to see folks getting this TV for $300 less just because they live east of AB.

They have the 850 only in 65" and the 55" in the 800 series. I probably would have gone with the 850 if it was available in the 55" at Costco. Saw the TV at BB and it looked pretty damn good - although I'm coming from a 14" laptop as my TV so any tv looks good right now.iluvsdadeals wrote: ↑ +1 on that.

I don't know man, I got the 55X900E from Best Buy a month ago for 1k for the open box sale. On the receipt it doesnt even say that its open box, literally Regular price 1999.99 with Discount of 1000.jonathanq wrote: ↑ How are stores handling the (at last claimed) inability to discount the Sony TV on receipts?

It is/was a crt and I knocked it off the stand measuring the space for a flat screen

I called TeleTime (mentioned here a few times). With free shipping to BC they offered me $1899.99 for the 65X900E and $2999.99 for LG 65B7P. Our local electronics stores suck.

Any big reason to pick the $2399 XBR65X900E over Costco's $1999 P65? Rtings rates them pretty closely and I don't expect to get the XBR65X900E for around $2000 anytime soon. Most of what I watch is 1080p so I don't care too much about better upscaling, and 3:2 pulldown correction isn't a big deal either as Plex (the only thing I watch) has display mode switching.
EDIT: Wait - I can get the XBR65X900E for around $2k?

Sony will do better with non-4K content (which is most of it), and it actually has a TV tuner which is important to some of us. Since it's Android, app support will be miles better - Vizio is traditionally very weak in this respect if that's important to you (it's not really, to me).tslout wrote: ↑ Any big reason to pick the $2399 XBR65X900E over Costco's $1999 P65?

I would choose the Sony over the Vizio myself for the reasons above. I'm waiting it out until the very end though as I don't think we're at the bottom yet.

just to add one thing to consider... are you wanting to view from an angle? the x900 does a bit of a better job with that afaik (i don't own either tv. have just seen in store)BinaryJay wrote: ↑ Sony will do better with non-4K content (which is most of it), and it actually has a TV tuner which is important to some of us.

Coming from an ST60 Panny Plasma is this TV worth hunting down? I can only get Samsung and HiSense TV's at cost. Saw the HiSense H9 series in 65 today and it looked really nice playing 4k content.

Nah – directly in front of tv, don't have cable, and will never use built-in apps. If I can pick up the X900e for around $2100 I'll happily do that, but it seems like the improved upscaling is all it's got over the P65 (for me, anyway).silenthunder wrote: ↑ just to add one thing to consider... are you wanting to view from an angle? the x900 does a bit of a better job with that afaik (i don't own either tv. have just seen in store)

I've had the tv about a week and a half now and does anyone else's tv make a loud popping/cracking sound once and awhile?
It seems to happen when I'm watching hockey and it goes from commercial to the white screen and the odd time when I bring up the bell tv selection menu. Previous tv with the same cables/outlet/cable input never had this issue.

For the new owners of the TV,
1. Upgrade Android tv.
2. Disable Sony useless apps https://www.google.ca/amp/s/amp.reddit. ... _and_sony/
For the guy that asked me about the store recipient, I'm just worried about putting the seller in troubles as he was a really nice guy, I didn't even need to mention the forum or other stores.
Just try to go to the mentioned stores and have a good talk with the guys, make sure they understand that you're gonna buy the TV, I told them my budget was 2k with taxes included, and we ended with the 22xx price.
You can even have a 1850 value for the Tv if you add the 4 year guarantee offered by the store.
Good luck,

Definitely shouldn't be doing that. I'd get an exchange while the return window is still in effect.Gold Monkey wrote: ↑ I've had the tv about a week and a half now and does anyone else's tv make a loud popping/cracking sound once and awhile?
