Plasma>>>>>>>>>LCD. Black levels and no refresh time>the world.
If I had a local store with inventory, I would have made a big scene. It just so happens they didn't and I wasn't in their store first thing in the morning so I couldn't even bitch about bait and switch (legally, they can't advertise something and not have an item in stock). At this point, their online pricing has changed and I don't see there being a shot in hell to get this tomorrow. I still think it's bullshit that they kept the price up online for most of the day but then falsely made the Xboxs out of stock. ---- that.

---- them both. Laser is the new quality.
I'd wait and pay 7k for one of them over buying the top end LCD/Plasmas which still don't compare.

Tell them you placed a order and when clicked checkout the site went down and wouldn't come up for 4 hours then said out of stock. Keep pitching a bitch and they'll give you your way. All retail work the same, they don't want to **** a customer off. Just speak to a sup and keep going higher.

Re: Circuit City = shady business
i might give that a shot, since i already printed it out to bring to circuit city (which didnt work, they had an "AD CORRECTION" sign up"
edit: it says right in best buys price match policy that they dont match "bundle" prices
