Re: 4K / Ultra HD Blu-ray: Discounts and deals
Buydig has this deal, which is actually quite fantastic for an OLED and they throw in a UHD Blu-ray player, too. I remember paying about $1500 for my Panny plasma, so an Oled for that price is right on. I don't believe the TV is 3-D, so there's that, but the player is.

Yeah, the c6 is curved and 3d, and also selling for $1799. I'm very close to picking this TV up.

Re: 4K / Ultra HD Blu-ray: Discounts and deals
Quick question on these 4K players - do they all handle 3-D, or is that a format that's slowly being abandoned? --peter

Looks Like Amazon had matched the price for TV. for both B6 and C6

Buydig was technically the better deal, because they were throwing in a Samsung UHD Blu-ray player and HDMI cables for the same price.

Crutchfield also has the LG's for $1800. No Samsung player, but they are a first class etailer and only charge sales tax in Virginia.

Beach Camera is has a bundle also with the Samsung UHD player on their Amazon store. It was included for free, but it looks like with this latest price drop, it's an extra $100 now instead ($1899).
Fry's does a "We pay sales tax" promotion on their 4K TVs, so that's a small discount (8% around here). I was going to see if they would match Beach's bundle too.

Re: 4K / Ultra HD Blu-ray: Discounts and deals
The 4K players do - for Blu-ray discs...Ultra HD doesn't support the 3D format, and fewer and fewer 4K TVs support it as well (one of the reasons I got an LG set).

If they do, and I'm presuming from comments here, that they do... does the 3D look better than on 1080 sets?
I would presume (again) that they do... but then I'm the presumptuous type.

Yes, 4K can support 3D, but it wasn't part of the specs or plans when Ultra HD was designed, so we won't be seeing any 4K 3D movies anytime soon on that format - if ever.

I wasn't happy, but they gave me the deal anyway, so I basically came in and got the worst price that I was expecting (I was hoping to get a better deal on a bundle with the 4K player).
Anyway, they gave me $140, and I'll pick it up today.
Here is an example of the ? in the ad

I guess that's an Illinois law? That is weird there is no disclaimer on it. I was close to getting a TV a while back and they touted how the sales tax was paid by them, so I guess it's a state based thing. But they definitely need to disclaim that.

Not necessarily...although LG does a really good job with their 3D. I had a VIZIO TV before my current LG that I thought did 3D very well, and my new LG (which is an even bigger screen, so I wouldn't think it would be as good) blows my old set out of the water.

I ask because my son got a passive 3D LG set about 4 years ago and it looks great. When we went looking for a new TV we found a great deal on a Sony 70" that also uses a passive system (unlike the other Sony sets at the time). When we have a large gathering he brings his glasses along.
