I just received my TV from this latest drop, I have not gotten a single notification other than that the order has been placed with the vendor. If my girlfriend was not home to sign for the TV I would have never even known the TV was coming. Watch out guys. Still no confirmation email or anything confirming that I have received it.
DMX4Thats funny, when I went to price match from newegg they denied it because they said they can only match the price if it was from "Newegg themselves" and not a 3rd party retailer. Guess either you got lucky or I got screwed.
Bojangles1238That’s a bummer, sorry to hear that! What I did is what I do every time I go into a store, to spend some money, I found a youngish guy and just try and make friends while talking about the product.
I showed some basic knowledge in TVs but made him feel superior in his knowledge compared to
mine, then said well I would take the B8, but Newegg has it for 1149, and he very quickly gave me the okay, and just did a quick glance at Newegg to confirm the price, what I will say is that I still would have came out cheaper with Newegg since they don’t charge tax. I paid $94 in tax.
100 less than 2 weeks ago. I’d be pretty upset if I joined that drop. This was recently as low as 1699 on Newegg but this is still a great deal. I paid 1999 for mine at Best Buy. Stunning set. No comparison to even the best full array LCD sets provided you can avoid Usage that may cause burn in. Do your research on burn in and how to avoid it before buying. Lessons 1 and 2, no cable news and no video games.
I appreciate the response, I am positive either will have a superb picture, what I am more interested in since I know either will offer great performance picture wise, is the amenities, Samsung has the no gap wall mount, and the one connect box, vs the LG AI ThinQ, and the possibility of permanent burn in with OLED.
DMX4I have an LG OLED that I purchased in November of 2017. I use it as a computer monitor in excess of 10 hours a day. I do have my computer set to auto-hide the taskbar, but the icons on my desktop have been pretty much stationary. The pixel refresher built in to the LG TV set does a very good job of protecting the screen from image retention and burn in. The earliest OLED's had a greater chance of burn in than they do today. Don't let the fear of burn in be the determining factor.
Best of luck whatever you decide...
Heads up: I told the FedEx guy that I needed to inspect the item before I would sign for it and he said, "That's against our policy. I can't give you the package until you've signed for it." I ended up signing for it and, luckily, everything was fine. But it was my understanding that MassDrop wanted us to inspect before signing... Just my 2 cents.
Yeah it doesn't work that way with FedEx and UPS. You are signing that you received the package. They aren't responsible or required to allow inspection. That only applies to a white glove delivery service or other type of local shipper.
Just received my TV today. Box had a few holes in it. Going to check out how the TV is and what condition. But aren't you supposed to receive a email from the manufacturer after delivery ? Haven't received mine yet. When will that come?
