boxing day sale sure has become nothing but a shitty sale event painted with the image of "crazy boxing day bargain". These deals appear throughout the year.

I cannot find a review of it online though...

I don't know why, but I feel like since A&B sound went under, boxing day just wasn't the same. Posted via RS Mobile |

The receiver doesn't have on-board DTS-HD/Dolby TrueHD decoding, so make sure you set your PS3/Blu-Ray to "LPCM" as opposed to Bitstream.

Hmm if that is the case wouldn't it save them work/time if they have the product in stock?
Is it a possibility to buy the product again at boxing day price and refund it with your old receipt on the same day? I can't see why not, unless they are not doing refunds on boxing day, if that's the case just come back the next day, the product won't be opened anyways.

oh and u cant refund on boxing day, most places dont process refunds on that day.

used to work for future shop.
stock from 2 years prior comes back in bulk.
prices are almost the same as regular season, sometimes more expensive.
used to make barriers with boxes to block customers rushing in.
money was great but i would never do it again.

all I know is boxing day is a joke these days. I will check it out later in the day to see if theres anything good but I don't see any point in waiting outside a store for 5 hours to get $200 off on a tv. It's better off going later in the day and seeing what ok deals you can find that people of missed or there was so much stock it will take them a week to sell it all.

vizio 55inch LCD 120hz 1080p 794 | My buddy picked up a Vizio at the beginning of the year, and when he first told me about it, I was like WTF? What the shit is a Vizio?
But it's a nice tv, I was super impressed. I don't think you can get a nicer tv in this price range for what you get.
