Ok, mods, before moving this, understand that it's gamer related, and it only lasts one day. So you can close this thread tomorrow.



Now, if you have a Fry's Electronics store within driving distance of you, you might want to stop what you are doing and immediately go there.


Why?


Well, if you have a XBOX or a GameCube or a PS2 or a Dreamcast, then you might want a HDTV to play them on. Fry's has a Panasonic 27 inch PureFlat TV that is HD ready for $149.99 Brand Freaking New! (now the big question is, is this a typo, and is it only good at my Fry's Electronics, or is this good at all Fry's Electronics) If this isn't a typo, and this is good at all Fry's stores (definitely not the price online), then this is a sensational deal to get a pureflat 27 inch TV by Panasonic that can do 480p and 1080i for only $149.99.



Also, there is another sensational deal for video gamers. If you have any of these systems: Turbografx-16, Sega Genesis, Super Nintendo, Neo-Geo, Sega CD, Jaguar, 3DO, Saturn, PSX, N64, etc, etc,..... well you might remember I did a post about how Dolby Pro Logic IIx revolutionizes retro game sound....

Well they have a kick ass reciever that does 6.1 and it features Dolby Pro Logic IIx. It's called the Onyko TX-SR502B. It's only $99!!!

YEP $99 !!!


I actually have this reciever in my living room as the centerpiece of my living home theater system. It's that good!!

When I bought mine it was like $325 with tax and everything, but this puppy is only $99. Now it does say some open box, some store demo. But as long as the thing works, for $99, you can't go wrong!! The thing does Dolby Digital EX 6.1 and DTS ES 6.1, and it can layer Dolby Pro Logic IIx over anything!! I always have "Dolby Pro Logic IIx Music" layered over any other processing, and the sound is fantastic. Even for 2 channel music!


The bottom line is that both of these are total steals, and I'm actually thinking the maybe their is some kindof typo or something and they won't honor these prices. But if they do, then you owe it to yourself to pull out a charge card or something and just get one or both of these puppies.

You'll thank me later!!!



If somebody finds out that the TV is not actually HD ready, please let us know immedaitely. I've tried to call them to get the exact model #, but I can't get through.

Yes, thank Moses that we don't have any Fry's in Wisconsin.

Atleast I don't think so.

I finally just got through to Fry's, and the deal is real.


It is not a typo, regarding the HDTV for $149.99


Unfortunately, I was also notified that they sold the 15 units that they had in the first 10 minutes the store was open.

So no super cheapo HDTV for me. Eh, I don't really need another one anyways, but damn, that was a good freaking deal.

To get a 27 inch HDTV, made by a company like Panasonic, and for it to be one of their pureflat versions, that is just simply ridiculous that 15 lucky souls got that for only $149.99.

Happy Birthday to them.

Cut to the chase, what's the deal?

excuse my stupidity, but define TLDR


The big deal is that you can get a real deal 27" HDTV for $149.99 and it's not some crappy off brand stuff. It's a pureflat by Panasonic.

Of course you would have to have been at your local Fry's store when they first opened, or they are likely all gone now.

I'm sorry I posted this so late, but I didn't read my newspaper till then.

Fry's sales are very YMMV even the Houston and Dallas ads are different.
