Any thoughts on the Samsung 51" 3d 1080p 600hz plasma at bb/fs for 699?
Asked the guy if I should line up, but he said I shouldn't need to and I can just show up at 6am for store opening and I should be fine. I don't know if I should believe him. Posted via RS Mobile

so maybe it's $2-3 more the rest of the year too.

I say pull the trigger and get the $999 one. Also pickup up some extra RAM, 8GB for around $50. | Posted via RS Mobile | |

Even though we got there a couple hours prior to the store opening, we were still roughly 15-20th in line.
Richmond/Vancouver might be different, however.

Some of the stock is more recent while others are left overs from years past.... Still worth a look if you want some "new" gear.

And I doubt they will sell out any time soon. Every single store that sells Xbox or PS3s are selling at the same price.
