Hey guys,

Just wanted to let all you guys know that plasmatv4free.com has a pretty good deal for a plasma. 12 offers, no referals. I know it's an i-deal site (marketlabs.net), and that there have been some troubles in the past with crediting for i-deals, but I'm gonna give it a shot. Just one question, does anyone know if it's a 7 or 20 day site?

manOFice

06-06-2007 11:27:34

I haven't seen a full 7 day crediting cycle in awhile. So most likely 20 days.

something's off about this one

it's supposedly 12 offers but when i went to check my status page it says

2
2
6

Referrals Required 5

anybody else see that?

BUT then on the botton of the offer page it says

To receive the incentive gift you must 1) Register with valid information; 2) Complete the user survey; and 3) Complete at least two (2) Silver offers, two (2) Gold offers, and eight (8) Platinum offers.

That's because you've already signed up for this site in the past (probably last year).

Yep, when the requirements were 10 offers + 5 referrals.

diggy

07-06-2007 10:47:52

Oh yeah, and I forgot to add that there's an offer for a Bose system if you do Cosmetique on the silver page. (Seems kinda too easy, anyone know what's up with that...has anyone gotten a system before?) Wicked good offers for this one too, no ood. I figured it out so I can get 13 CD's, some presents for my girlfriend, a subscription to blockbuster and some random stuff for under 70 bucks. Even if I don't get a tv and sound system, that's a pretty good deal in itself. I'm lovin this freebie stuff.

ghounds07

2-2-8 easy offers right?

and this is ideal I assume (never done ideal just brandarama).

Right now it is a toss up for me on whether to complete my brandarama site, 14 offers = $2,500 or this site...12 offers for ~$2,200.

Can anyone put up a list of offers as I don't want to start my 60 day clock?

Thanks!

climed

It looks like there are enough offers I can do. Just have to spend a little more. Around $100 isn't bad for a tv that costs maybe around $1200-$1300. Although I heard before that iDeal sent out EDTV's with no tuners when they advertised an HDTV on the site. Any chance of that happening here?

Quick question from a newbie with ideal. I have done quite a few other sites like NT and Brandarama but this is my first IDEAL site. I may have dupplicated one or two offers that I did on another site in the last 6 months. (not sure exact date of when I did the offer last) I know I have not done it on ideal will that create a problem? (has anyone been DQ'd for this that you know of?) The site I signed up for again that I had been a member I do not want to cancel and want to stay with for a while again. Thanks.

How do you accidentally duplicate one or two offers? You should know if you've done it or not. I-deal has PLENTY of offers so you have no reason to duplicate any.

As for getting DQ'd.. yes, some have been DQ'd in the past for this.

illnovah

07-06-2007 15:45:26

I just re-signed up, different address and email.

Why? Well, I'm moving out on the 25th so it's not like it's fraud or anything.

Now I have the 12 offer site )

Now, the question is, when u sign up when it's 12 offers, if you take too long finishing, will that add that ref? or is that just for people that sign up LATER on when they actually add the ref?

Wow Bman realax..... If you had done as many free gifts as I have you would have trouble too keeping track. I have lost count of the thousands in gift cards and items I have been able to get for little or nothing. I just wanted a little advise as this is my first try with Ideal since there always seemed to be much better choices out there. With NT now and their T&C and the LONG wait on Brandarama (plus at somepoint I don't see them staying in business and don't want to be left holding the bag when they stop sending gift cards) I figured I would try Ideal.

Good I got in on this one before the requirements changed (they seem to change a couple weeks after the site is up.) Now my 60 day clock is on signup, right? I'm not going to do offers until next week, but that still leave me plenty of time to replace any offers that don't credit.

I, and many other people here, started this site before the requirement change that occurred about two weeks ago. I started this site about a month ago and am still pursuing it -- almost done. The requirements were indeed 10+1 (I should know.. I'm doing it ;)).

I know many others can vouch for this as well, although I don't see why you're making this argument in the first place.

I have to do 2 replacement offers but 10 of my 12 credited today. My question is this is the first Ideal site I have done I assume when I am 12/12 I will see a redemption link? Also do you all send this with return receipt requested? And when they do get my redeption form how long until I get the plasma? As slow as brandarama or more like netblue with a 8 week wait? Last question is do they require a w9?

Thanks.

It usually takes about 2-3 weeks after sending in the redemption form before you are processed. From there it can take anywhere from a month and a half to 3 months before they send the gift out.

Yes you have to fill out a w9.

Thank you both for your responses!!!! Am excited to see if I can get a plasma as I only have a 27 inch 8 year old TV. I have done 3 or 4 other sites but never Ideal as I have heard bad things about them. After the fallout with NT I decided that Ideal might be worth one shot as my last DIY site. Will keep you all posted as I print/send in my forms. Do you all send your froms with tracking for proof or is that not needed? Thanks.

Just a little update for me I greened 8 offers today including the Bose system Cosmetique offer. I know I the most I did was 10 offers, but I think I only did 9, so that's a pretty good success rate. Going to do replacement offers now

Only sign up once.

If you can login to your account, you are fine and should start doing offers ASAP. You only have 60 days and offers take 20 days to credit.

It took me less than 24 hours for my first batch of replacements to approve. I've got one more replacement offer outstanding that I completed at like 10 this morning, hopefully I'll go green on that tonight or tommorow. So..not another twenty days.

diggy

01-07-2007 06:36:58

Just a little update.

All my offers credited, I had a link to my certs in my "check my status" page, so I verified my info, ordered a Panasonic plasma (give you the option of 800 dollar check, panasonic, or samsung) and printed my certs and W-9. Putting them in the mail tommorow!

Just a quick question regarding the bonus off. I compelted the Cosmetique offer for the 800 dollar bose surround sound system, and I heard they weren't good about coming through on those offers. DO you think I should enclose something showing them screenshot of the offer and a screenshot of my completed Cosmetique offer?

06pontiac

01-07-2007 06:51:51

Cool! What are the TV's worth? Are they really worth $2200? What is the resale do you think? I am trying to decide whether I should pick the $800 check because I will probably just resell the TV. idea

diggy

01-07-2007 06:57:20

I'm sure they're not worth 2200...even these companies 1080p models don't sell for 2200, but I think the cheapest you can find a 42 inch plasma now is like 1100-1200, so go for the tv.

shortys408

01-07-2007 08:06:29

the tv will be around 1400$

kingsmoit

01-07-2007 08:22:25

I'm curious, how are we sure it's a 1080p TV and not a 720p/1080i ?

ILoveToys

01-07-2007 08:23:47

It will only be 720p...That's about as good as plasmas get so far without being way over priced. People just got a bunch of 720p plasmas a few days ago. If you could convince them to send you a LCD then you'd pull 1080p.

kingsmoit

Hey guys I comleted the ultimateplasmatvs.com site and was first processed on jun 12 and said shipping in 6-8 weeks. Now is says processed on june 12 and your gift will be sent shortly. I tried to email them, should I be worried this is my first idea site. Email could not be completed.

Sam's Club here sells the older 3-2-1 and Lifestyle 18 systems for under $800. They could also try to slide in a Cinemate system. That's assuming they send any "bonus gift" at all, of course.[/quote8e8ddee3d4]
I wouldn't say I-Deal is overstating the price if they're claiming $800. Most Bose HT systems cost a lot more than $800 unless they're bottom tier or discontinued. The Bose systems for sale at the big box stores sell for $1K-$2K. The cheapest Bose system at Sam's Club here is $800, but it's the fake-surround 3-2-1 system, not a true 5.1 system. The Lifestyle 18 III system is $1500 here at Sam's. So I'm not sure what $800 system they'd be offering unless it's the 3-2-1 or just the Wave Radio CD system, which I think is somewhere around that price.

Which of course is ridiculous, because everyone "in the know" knows that Bose isn't worth their price. For $800 you can put together a decent system that sounds better than a $1500 Bose system, with more features & flexibility.

Of course if it's free, I'd take it. But would rather have the $800.

newbie here and have a question....I put in my offers on June 15 and June 16. On day 20 both my platinum got approved, but none of my others. Is my next step just to wait until day 30 and if nothing shows approved then submit and email including all my confirmation emails for manual credits?
Anyone else encounter this?

ILoveToys

10-07-2007 22:02:30

You can wait until 30 days, but I don't know that that will help. You won't get manual credit unless it was a glitch on their part, but it doesn't seem normal that no offers would credit on the other 2 pages at all either....

Dear valued customer,

We do not guarantee that a user will receive credit for an offer.

We are not responsible for delays in reporting offer completion or failure to receive
offer credit. The time it takes to receive credit varies greatly.

We would suggest completing another offer before your account expires in the given
60 days.

We do not possess the ability to manually change an offer to "approved"
status.

Sincerely,

Customer Service

We're not asking credit for a single offer, we're just asking they check why not a single offer credited. Since it's at least a few of us here, it obviously is a problem on their side.

I've recommended their sites to friends. I've tried the offers. I just want to be treated fairly.

Okay, So I had been approved since like the 28th or so, and sent in my certs which they recieved on the 2nd for sure (sent certified and slip said they signed for it on the 2nd). Since then, I have still not had anything saying confirmed, and have sent TWO emails to them and have had NO response back. Im really starting to get frustrated with them...

Although some people have been processed, lets keep in mind that on other IDeal sites, it can take as long as 4 weeks from reception of certs to change of status to processed. So let's just be patient, we are after all getting free tv's.

I understand your post completely and I half agree. Although some sites take very long to credit, the length is usually quite consistent. It is hard for me to understand someone getting processes who sent their certs AFTER me. I'm not jumping to any conclusions yet, but the fact that the customer service department isnt emailing me back, is what concerns me the most. If its going to take awhile, at least make me aware of the situation at hand. Im not going to flip out yet, I have the patience to wait and hope to be processed in the next cycle, its weird that not only did I not get processed, but I havent received a response from them either.

Actually, about the only thing consistent about I-Deal is their inconsistency. ;)

Processing and shipping times all vary wildly, and always have. And lately crediting times have also become quite variable, where they used to be a consistent 7 days/24 hours. They don't seem to process or ship in any particular order either. I remember on CSC having my plasma shipped 2 weeks after processing, before others who had been waiting 12 weeks. OTOH my Dell 24" monitor was shipped and received well after most people here who started the site after me (I was the one who started the conga, in fact).

That said, they are generally reliable about coming through, so you just have to be patient. If you're approved and your forms processed, I wouldn't sweat it -- you'll get yours eventually. But you can't often go by how others are doing.

15-07-2007 03:06:07

i just checked and only 3 out of the 12 offers ive done have credited. should i be worried or should i wait a bit longer. today should be my 20th day. Will offers continue to say pending even though you didn't get credit for it, or will it say credit denied?

One more question, do they approve them all at once or a few at a time?

Quadracer89

15-07-2007 07:25:46

Youch benedict, 312 isn't too good of a ratio. From what I'm hearing, your best bet is to not waste time and do replacement offers. Even if you spend another $70+ on replacement offers, you'll still make out real good. I'm thinkin of signing up for this site for my first DIY but the credit cycle is alittle to sketchy for me. Alot of people havn't received their credit by the 20day mark. Oh well, who knows. It seems like its either gonna work with you, or against you.

benedict

15-07-2007 11:08:18

I see, should i start doing replacement offers now or should I wait until the 30 day mark? Also, replacement offers take only 24 hours or less to credit right?

Does anyone else know if they just credit them all at once or little at a time. I don't get how I could only get 3 offers credited out of the 12.... (

This is my first ideal site, so i knew what could happen. Fortunately i had 10 of my 12 offers credit on the 20th day. I than immediately completed 2 more replacement offers and those credited the next day within 24 hours. So i would say, you can wait it out, but replacement offers do credit fast. Good luck.

Forgive me because I've never done this company before, but I can't believe I have zero offers to replace on my account! Beautiful!

Now I've just got to decide which TV to get because the $800 won't buy me a 42 inch plasma, as I've checked many sites for prices.

Can anyone here recommend one TV over the other? I've got to decide and I need your help! I currently own a 23" Samsung LCD which I've never had an issue with, nor burn-in. Burn-in is my biggest concern with plasma as LCD doesn't have that problem.

How do we know for sure the size or resolution of the TV? Or is it all a big guessing game? Any help from anyone on which TV to get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

PS For those wondering, I did all 12 offers on June 28 and was approved exactly, I mean exactly 20 days later, July 18. Sweet! Right after midnight to be exact.

Burn-in is not a problem with plasma tv's anymore. Some places recommend "breaking in" plasmas for the first 50 hours of watching by making sure to switch channels every so often (so their logo isn't in the same spot), but most say this is uneccesary. We know what tv's they are because people have received theirs. The model numbers are somewhere around. They are pretty good tvs...retail for around 1200. The panasonic comes with a stand, so I'm happy about that.

I wouldn't say burn-in is no longer a problem. However it is greatly reduced from earlier generations of plasmas. Still, plasma is more susceptible to permanent image retention than any other TV technology. If you leave it in 43 mode with side pillars, or with a constant scrolling ticker, or a video game paused for long periods of time, you will most likely suffer some permanent IR even with newer plasmas. However they aren't as sensitive as they use to be, and with some basic awareness and discipline, it won't be a problem.

I've had a 42" Panasonic plasma on the bedroom wall (courtesy of I-Deal) for over a year now, and have no IR issues with it. But I did go to great lengths to school the wife on being careful.

And BTW, a lot of people don't realize it, but ALL display technologies are susceptible to some degree of image retention, even LCD's. It's almost never permanent with LCD and LCoS displays, and usually clears up within minutes to a couple hours, but it can be quite disconcerting if you aren't aware and see it for the first time on your new $5000 TV. )

I ask because I remember the email that was sent to us in the laptops site, and there seems to be a step that here on this site, we didn't have to do.

Am I good?

Thanks for the help,

Jason

Yeah, normally the cert and W9 are the only things you send. However sometimes they audit accounts and ask for further identification, address verification, credit card or bank statements showing a couple of selected offer charges, etc. They did this with a lot of us on the original CSC plasma site last year.

OK. i was fullfilled about a couple weeks ago. Sent in my certificates. Was wondering how do i know that is processed and what should i look for to know that i am ok? I know they recieved it, cuz i sent it with delivery confirmation. This is question to all the people who have been approved. I checked my gift status on the page, and it just has all my offers that were approved and at the bottom it says CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE BEEN APPROVED! Does that part change? THanks.

They may not return the calls, like they don't always return e-mails and support tickets. But they have been known to respond to e-mails and support tickets by manually approving offers and accounts, so it's possible they're checking the voicemails and acting on (some of) them.

looks like I am one of the unlucky ones that didn't get credited. I'm way past my 20th day and have 0 credits. I've done DIY sites before and have never had any problem getting at least most of my offers credited. I always use the same computer/browser/etc so I know it wasn't a problem on my end. I'm e-mailing them, good luck to me.

Don't start an I-Deal site without realizing that you'll probably have to do some replacements.

Which is true, out of the several I-Deal sites I've done, only one credited all of my original offers. I had to do a few replacements on all the others.

I must properly do the offer-dance for Ideal. I'm 2/2 for doing sites where all of my offers were approved in 20 days with no replacements. Basically, that means that my luck will go to hell and my plasma will probably explode.

I had the same issue with barcode and the script that generates the "receive by" date. I emailed them and they replied within 48 hours...it just said "send the form right away." nothing else, not even a standard signature but i'll take it!

What they will probably do is ask you to scan a W-9 and e-mail it to them. So you print one off, fill it out, and scan it. This same thing happened to my friend on SleekNewLaptops, he e-mailed support and that's what they told him to do. You'll probably also put your prize choice in that e-mail, whether you want the Panasonic, Samsung, or $800 check.

Around 3 weeks give or take. My bro is on his 2nd week of waiting, so he should be processed soon, and given the amount of time the guys above me have recieved their tvs in, it should be another 3 weeks until the tv arrives.

And if I remember correctly, samsungs make better lcds, and panasonic makes better plasmas. That seems to be the general consensus.

Dolfan954

27-07-2007 20:30:04

Okay, I am starting to get pretty furious at them. So after waiting ungodly amount of time with no response from emails and such, they finally put my account on hold due to "flase information" or something to that degree. I think its because My birthday is in 1988 (im 19), but when first signing up, i was required to put 1987 as the lastest date. So i mailed them a letter since it said that I could only respond by mail about a week ago, and no response. I then proceeded to email them to try to find out if they had recieved my letter, or to help me clear up the situation. Even before putting them on hold I have not received one email from them.

Is this a lost cause for me? I really dont know how to approach this situation.

Once again of course they're legit. All I-Deal sites are legit. Just look around at the dozens of folks completing their sites and getting stuff. I've done four. I continue to be surprised at the number of folks who ask that question.

They sometimes have crediting glitches. You just have to be patient and most of all polite, when you contact them to report a problem. In many cases of crediting problems, they will manually process you. But their customer service sometimes leaves a lot to be desired, it just seems to depend on the alignment of the planets as to how helpful they are (or which rep you get). And they have zero tolerance for any appearance of fraud, which I have no problem with.

From what i see and hear on this site, people have gotten their tv's. Regarding offers getting credited and sending in the forms to receive your gift it all depends. If you dont' get credit after 30 days of completing your offer, something is wrong. But from my experience if you follow the guide on completing offers, you shoudl be fine. I had only 10 of my 12 offers credit after 20 days. That was the cycle for me. The next 2 offers i completed which are "replacement" offers credit next day after i completed them. For those who didnt' get credit, you may need to keep emailing CS, or complete more offers. I guess it is a hit or miss. With the certificates i sent in, i was nervous that they may say they didn't get it, so i sent it with delivery confirmation so i know that they did. I emailed them as well, they responded ver quickly to my 2 emails i sent regarding my certs. They never "specifically" said they received it, but they said once they are received it can take 2-3 weeks for the certs to be processed and show up on your account. Lucky me i checked today and i was processed. Hope this helps out others!! Good luck!

Couldn't check in yesterday, so 48 hours later, he checked and he got only 2 out of the 4 replacements to credit.

He's going to do another 2, because it's become a matter of will to him, but I've advised to wait a week or so to 30 days and send in an email and see what they say. He still has a month left before he expires so he has plenty of time.

I wouldn't bother. You have 60 days from signup to complete the site, and offer credits take 20-30 days from the day you complete your first offer. Chances are you'll have no way to finish in another 30 days if you haven't even started.

NEVER signup for an I-Deal site without being ready to immediately start working on your offers. Even when doing so, it sometimes takes the whole 60 days to get enough offers to credit.

Fortunately for you there are tons of I-Deal sites and new ones opening or being discovered all the time. Just write this one off and try again with another site.

Considering how smoothly this site went for a few of us, I really don't think Market Labs is randomly screwing people over. Really, I think maybe you guys are actually violating terms or not completing offers in the correct way. Just throwing it out there.

RolltheStampede

30-07-2007 09:34:44

yeah your right the guy probobly forgot to add street or road to his address so he violated "3) You have provided invalid or false demographic information"

or maybe his referaaal reported that they got the link in an inappropriate place.

I have a feeling I'm also going to get screwed over.

I don't know why, but I feel it, even though I in reality, have nothing to worry about for being DQ'd.

I have a faint memory of one Ideal site, where they gave gifts to the first set of people who completed the site, but then started DQing those who completed the site after the first showed pictures that the site is "legit"

its been awhile since i've done ideal, so i forgot how the replacement offers actually works...
ok, so i did all 11 offers out of 12 and all went green on day 20.
now i do the last offer, does that make it a replacement and it will credit within 24-48 hours? or does it need another 20days?
heres how my status look like

They do email it out, but you get the link when you log in earlier than the email shows up.

I just got manually processed - Should be shipping in 6 to 8 weeks D Hopefully they keep the super-quick ship time for a little while longer.

how long did it take you to get manually processed? I just sent my paperwork in today for manual processing.

I also noticed that the address I had to send the manual processing stuff to is different than the one in the Terms... hoping everything goes through.....

there was some type of mess up when I went to print my page, told me I was expired but I wasn't. I e-mailed them about the problem and got a response that I would have to me manually processed and I need to print the w9 along with the email they sent me and mail to the address they gave me.

Something tells me that, with that attitude, much of your Nuitech "winnings" were fraudulently acquired. It's no wonder the freebie industry is tightening down, and we're all paying the price for it through loss of manual credits, pullout of sponsors, extended payout times, much higher requirements and more restrictive terms, etc.

BTW I-Deal reps lidoli read these forums, you know. I'll bet Molly already has you on a list somewhere, and if she or any other rep asks for my help in identifying fraudulent users, I'll most likely do so. roll

Oh, and I almost forgot to remind you willful and intentional fraudulent behavior will also get you banned from here. FiPG does not condone, endorse, or welcome fraud of any kind.

Probably why he won't respond when asked how many gifts from NT he received--because he frauded. I believe it was 18 offers for a $2000 giftcard, so thats...72 offers? Without fraud? roll

I really dont want to do any more offers since I could just start a different site.

Supacold

Ever since he joined the forum i've had my suspicions about the guy. if i can recall correctly he was only able to complete have a dozen NT sites, but was also able to do it a second time on two or so sites. Before he had all his gifts listed on his signature as if he was bragging his accomplishments.

that is unusual for it to not even credit one. All my offers credit exactly as it was told and so did the replacement offer.

Cause when ever i clear cookies i have to relog on to my account.

ghounds07, it does sound as if you have cooking tracking problem if you're not receiving a single credit after 40 days, and it isn't a problem reported elsewhere. I wouldn't waste the replacement offers either, and you shouldn't attempt another site until you are certain you have things setup right with your browser and security settings, and are properly logging in to your account. Like Shorty said, to be safe you should probably complete offers via your status page rather than bookmarking the main offer page.

Over the last few years I have done quite a few sites and have gotten a lot of free gifts and have really run out of offers to do. If I was to continue I would be repeating offers and I feel that I will have a high enough tax bill next year that I need to stop doing these. Just in the last 2 months I have completed this offer, the retail report card (aprox. 5k) and 3 brandarama gifts so I am pretty much out of offers.

ideal seems to add quite a few new offers on their sites every so often. Also on sthe sites I done, when you hit the refresh button, the availible offers changes slightly.

dmorris68

Yeah I-Deal does add lots of new offers. I did four of their sites last year, never repating an offer. Then I held off on doing any more until last month, where I found they had a ton of new offers again, so I'm doing another.

And yeah, the tax bill can be daunting, especially if you're the type that cuts your withholdings to the bone, or counts on the annual refund as a windfall (even if it's your own money). Last year my federal refund dropped like $800 after adding in the freebie income.

Same one that everyone else is getting the panny TH42PX75U. Worth about 1200 or so on Ebay right now with shipping so if you are in the market for a plasma is not bad. I opened it up to make sure was not broken but will not use it for about 3 months at this point. I am turning my basement into a game room and this will be the TV I will mount on my wall. If I open it up now I will NEVER get the work done so this is like a gift to myself for finishing the sheetrock and floor in the basement. If I was going to buy a plasma this is not the one I would buy think I would get a 50+ inch with at least 1080i not the 720p max this has but for 30 dollars (plus income tax) it is a great deal.

I assume you mean 1080p? Virtually all 720p sets are 1080i capable, including that Panasonic. According to the factory specs, it'll even take a 1080p input and deinterlace it for display.

Well, these sites deinterlace, but they aren't usually a true 720p (look at the actual resolution) like most LCD's are. One of the reasons LCD's are, imho, better.

I have no idea why it is, and I'm not saying you can tell when watching movies/TV, but when you buy a 52" one check I'd recommend an LCD.

I don't even consider HD-CRT's when I'm discussing HDTV since I consider it a dead and impractical technology.

Also, not to beat the dead horse as I've mentioned this many times, but 52" LCD's very often pale in image quality comparison to similarly sized non-LCD RP's and plasma's. Most LCD's of that size still have considerable artifacts, screen door effects, and ghosting, unless maybe you're looking at it from 25 feet away. I'd still take a plasma or an RP DLP or SXRD any day over an LCD that size. Only LCD's under 42" interest me, and even then I've seen 37" models that still look bad. They'regetting better, but I'm still not satisifed yet. )

I may have phrased poorly what I meant. Take my 32" LCD - it's 1368 x 768 pixel count. These 42" plasma's being shipped are 1024 x 768 vertical lines. So, essentially, while this plasma is bigger, it has less detail. Now, the technology is different, but essentially what I usually think of as "information count" is a definitely in the favor of LCD's.

Since 720p is 1280x768, at 1024 x 768 you aren't getting the entire signal displayed on screen - it's "downscaled." On the flip side, it's upscaled for the 1368. One is sharper, one tends to have less pixilation (the plasma).

Either way, Plasma's have, generally, worse resolutions than an LCD.

Okay, that makes it a little more clear as to what you meant, but I still disagree with the implications. Yes, most 37" and 42" plasmas are 1024x768 but that is still within the spec of 720p HDTV. Not only that, but you'll find that 1366x768 42" plasma's aren't hard to find nor that expensive (Samsung's HP-T4254 is only $999 for example), and actually 1920x1080 (1080p) plasmas are more becoming more common and affordable than they were just a few months ago -- the Panny TH-42PZ700U is only $1400 or so.

Even at 1024x768, the difference in horizontal resolution is far less noticeable than a proportional difference in vertical resolution, and the artifacts produced from large format LCD's IMO far outweight the minimal loss in horizontal resolution.

BTW the broadcast standard resolution for 720p OTA is 1280 wide, not 1366, so you still wouldn't have 1366h pixels of information.

Personally, unless it was a top-notch LCD that I'd inspected beforehand, I'd probably still take a 42" plasma over a 42" LCD, even if resolution was 1024x768. I can't tplerate the image quality of most large format LCD's. BTW virtually all 50" plasmas are at least 1366x768, and at that size I would lidefinitelyli choose plasma over LCD, unless it was an amazingly good LCD.

I'll just take this opportunity to once again pimp my 60" SXRD, which I think still beats just about any flat panel on the market -- plasma, LCD, or otherwise. -- in the image quality department. ;)

I chose the Samsung too. If you go to CNET.com, enter Samsung HPT4254, and read the consumer reviews. They all seem to love it. Plus revel in the fact that we only spent less than $100 for a $1400 TV. Love Ideal, thanks.

See? That's what I've been trying to get across to folks. Better specs on paper do not always translate to a better real-world experience, particularly with something as subjective and visual as TV performance.

That said, Samsung and Panasonic are both excellent manufacturers, and in this case if I couldn't compare the exact models with my own eyes first, I too would probably have picked the Samsung just on better specs. Were it another less reputable company however, I would probably go with the Panny despite a spec disadvantage.

See? That's what I've been trying to get across to folks. Better specs on paper do not always translate to a better real-world experience, particularly with something as subjective and visual as TV performance.

That said, Samsung and Panasonic are both excellent manufacturers, and in this case if I couldn't compare the exact models with my own eyes first, I too would probably have picked the Samsung just on better specs. Were it another less reputable company however, I would probably go with the Panny despite a spec disadvantage.[/quote26a0029886]

Reading on most sites people tend to love the panny A LOT more than the samsung...I guess the panny is an amazing tv and an amazing tv brand. I'm satisfied with my choice.

I went to CNET.com and read really favorable reviews for the Samsung. I also have a Samsung LCD HDTV 23" and I've been very happy with it. Figured with the plasma's ability to eliminate burn-in, I'd stick with Samsung. Great brand I've been happy with too.

yay.

I picked the Samsung because I looked at the specs, and from what I could tell was better than the panny.

So those who picked the panny, is there a reason you picked it? Is it better than the Samsung?[/quote9c5d56ab6b]



I chose the Samsung too. If you go to CNET.com, enter Samsung HPT4254, and read the consumer reviews. They all seem to love it. Plus revel in the fact that we only spent less than $100 for a $1400 TV. Love Ideal, thanks.[/quote9c5d56ab6b]


Exactly, I actually read the CNET reviews before I decided which plasma to choose.

I was curious as to why people picked the panny.

i guess i'm going to go ahead and give this site a try on monday.

i'd much rather get an lcd (especially a 1080), but do not want to deal with a referral. from reading the posts, everyone is very happy with their panasonics so i guess i'll be choosing that one.

this will be the first site i've started with my new router and having my internet connection run through that. i'm going to use my main desktop computer (not the laptop) for the site, is there any chance there will be a problem with crediting due to the router or any of it's security settings?

i do not want 20-30 days to come around and not get credit for anything.

I am setup the same way and you won't have any issues. I have a linksys router and my desktop is plugged into that router, no crediting issues.

If you do all your offers in one sitting making sure all your clicks register you should be good on a 20 day schedule.

I agree that technical specs mean very little, with the exception of comparing different models for the same brand perhaps. I personally love the 52" Samsung LCD (5265f) my parents bought, and wouldn't mind getting one of those myself. Of course, they paid a bit more than I did for this 42" model...

I still think good LCD's look just as good as most plasmas, with the exception being the Pioneer and other high-end models. Of course, I can buy 2 or 3 of those 52" samsungs for the same price as one Pioneer )

And the burn in issue - it's still there. Combine it with higher power consumption on Plasma's, and I'd pick a good LCD any day.

I think this is one of those mac/pc, starbucks/"anywhere else" discussions. They both look great, I'm sure this one will look great, and I can't wait until it comes )

PS - I just got processed for my Vaio D

If you sell it my guess is you will prob. net about 900.00 or so as on ebay they seem to be going for 1,000 or so plus 200 shipping. Maybe you can get 1000 on CL.

07-08-2007 17:15:22

It's fine to be that anal about it, but for the record, I went for over a year without EVER clearing a cookie, and I've not had an unusual amount of failed credits (I-Deal or otherwise). Out of 4 completed I-Deal sites, I've had to do no more than 3 or 4 replacement offers total, and at least one I-Deal site went 100% on first try. But I'm generally careful about NOT clicking the same offers between different freebie sites. That's where you're more likely to get in trouble with cross-cookie-contamination. )

I'd say it's equally or even more important to leave the offer's completion page open long enough to ensure the entire page is rendered and the web bug/pixel hit is completed.

If you needed 8-9 replacements I would do a spyware / virus scan before doing anything else. Something is seriously wrong and I doubt that the replacements will work without fixing the problem. I'd then try a point site just to see if 1 offer will credit before risking so many offers.

[quotea62261c61d="chewy"]newbish question. i was going to do an offer, i clicked the link and the page wouldnt ever load. it is showing in my click history, and i still want to do the offer but is it safe to do it later if it is in my histroy already on another day and done on a different computer?

thanks[/quotea62261c61d]
You can click an offer as many times as you like before completing it. However it can make it tricky to know for sure that your completion clickthru is recorded properly.

In the early days of I-Deal, each duplicate click resulted in either a duplicate entry in your clickthru history, or at least an updated timestamp. Recent experience, however, has shown that the later clicks don't always register on the status page, and therefore you aren't always certain that the click registered. Which makes it impossible to follow the old rule about waiting until the status page updates before going through with a completion.

I've noticed it still changes the timestamp, it just takes a little longer sometimes. I've had a couple of offers that wouldn't update period, so I stayed away from them and tried something else.

I'd still try to make sure the timestamp updates - and also that it moves to correct section you want it completed in.

Cool I got processed today. It's day 63 (my account was "expired" but has magically come back to life.) Based on what I've seen its around 25-30 days (give or take) before receiving the TV from here. I'm excited.

Anybody receive the speakers? My cosmetique didn't credit ( so I won't be getting them anyway, but I'm just curious.

I just found out that one of my offers sent my package to my city with my name on it. No street address, apt #, nothing! How classic is that? Looks like I'll be doing replacement offers....unless....it actually goes through! Doubt it and that may be borderline breaking the ToS.

Also, I do not think the 20-day cycle starts over if you don't get credit for any offers in one section. I was 7/8, 0/2, 0/2. Five days later, I got credit for the offers I completed 5 days after the original offers I completed that credited.

Wow, that's confusing, but yeah. And I hope they'll send the Bose system; that'd be so killer.

My advice
1. Stop emailing them.
2. Send them again. About 10 days after they have received your new forms send them one (1) very polite email mentioning that they didn't receive your other forms and asking them nicely to process the forms they received on whatever date it is.
3. Pray to the freebie lord and hope that they help you.

Multiple emails will just piss them off and make them less likely to help you (based on what people have written in the past about ideal). Also, I seriously doubt that the BBB will be any help. Ideal isn't widely known for great customer service and I doubt that they care about their rating with the BBB.

15-08-2007 06:45:17

If we were to have an e-mail address, we wouldn't give it out. That's up to Molly to provide. That last thing we want to do is jeopardize the amount of I-Deal support they provide to our members here, one example being the recent $800 Bose deal -- Molly approached me unsolicited about that. Or the DOYD crediting fiasco late last year, Molly helped a lot of us through that one. They don't HAVE to support us here, they do it on their own. So while you may think our loyalties should lie exclusively with you and that we should give you everything we have on I-Deal, the fact of the matter is we have to balance our relationship to our members with that of the various freebie sites, so as to maintain communications between all parties involved. Shooting ourselves in the foot by pissing off I-Deal would not be in ANYBODY'S best interest.

People have to remember that forums like ours are not looked upon kindly by a lot of large, corporate, incentive-based sites such as I-Deal. We "professional freebieists" who know better how to properly complete sites, cut into their breakage and profit margin. So they're under no obligation to provide us any extra "help" and doing so can actually run contrary to their business model. So let's not look the gift horse in the yapper and just be patient and appreciative for what we do have.

As was said, you can try PM'ing Molly and continue to use the the Contact Us link -- it does work, they have responded to many folks. But they have a tendency to ignore bothersome messages, so if you've been hammering them about it, perhaps yours just aren't getting attention. At this point I'd say you need to write off this site, and try another. But if Molly is able and willing to help you, then I'm sure she'll see this and respond.

Yes, their requirements increase after awhile on most of their popular sites.

Once you signup for specific offer+ref arrangement, you are locked in for those requirements. Later changes will not affect you. It could be possible that last night when you signed up, it was right on the edge of being changed over, and your account fell into the new terms. If getting 2 refs is beyond you, and you're sure that's what your site requires, then just drop this site and move on to another of I-Deal's many sites. You can do as many of their sites as you like as long as you don't fraud offers. The only two restrictions on completing multiple I-Deal sites are

1. You cannot duplicate the SAME site, ever. You can however do other promotions within a site domain, i.e. you can do ShoppersSavingCenter for a laptop and another ShoppersSavingCenter for a plasma.

2. There is a limit of $1000 received per DBA per six month period. That applies to either a single gift of $1000 or more, or multiple gifts up to $1000. So you have to pay attention to the DBA's running the promotion you're interested in.

its always puzzled me as to why they even start sites with 0 refs(not that im complaining). they give out a bunch of fairly easily gotten gifts and then they raise the requirements. i always assume the last prize was the last one from ideal, but they always come out with more. best network, imo! they even have a support person that comes around and help now and then

DRay9911

15-08-2007 09:18:28

if you created your account last night when it was 0 referrals, you should still be good...just check your gift status to see if it gives you a referral link and says you need 1 (or possibly 2) referrals.

I recently completed offers for plasmatv4free and noticed that one of the offers did not transfer cookies. Unfortunately I was getting carried away and did not notice this until after I completed the offer. Anyways, I'm assuming that since I did not see the cookies being planted for this specific offer I probably will not get credit.

Would anyone know if we can complete more offers than required for these sites? Will I be disqualified if I get credit for more than the 12 offers that are required?

I just want to make sure that I will not have to wait another 20 plus days to complete the silver section and perhaps ruin my chances all together by going past the 60 day mark. Any knowledge would be great, thanks!

Yea! I qualified this AM...only one problem. When I pulled up the certificate to print, I couldnt print it. I comes up in a little box not a full screen and you cant enlarge it. It does not give me an option to print. Then I went out and tried it again and of course it said that I already printed!!! What do I do? I sent an email to them for some help. I don't understand why I don't have a tool bar to have options to print. Thanks for any help!

Congrats tiffrn, glad they're helping you out. God Bless your hubby as well. I'm assuming he's military, and if so, He at the very least deserves a plasma for his service.

I'm on week 3-4 on waiting (processed on Aug. 2nd). Getting so close I can taste it.

I signed up for Cosmetique and it went through so hopefully I will really be able to surprise my hubby! I am so glad I found this forum it has been alot of help. Yea, my hubby flies the troops around everywhere...he goes places that I have never heard of much less go there myself. LOL Thanks again!!!!!

OK I sent my papers in. I hope it makes it there by the deadline. The 25th I think is what it said. I thought from the terms and cond. it says you have 15 days to get it to them. So which is it? I sent again today, the first one I sent overnight had it to where someone had to sign it and I told the post lady that I did NOT want that. I didn't notice it till I checked for delivery the next day that she didn't have me sign a waver for no signature. Jeez....I am under too much stress with my hubby being gone, thanks for listening to me ramble. Anyway, they will have it Monday. Someone just tell me to stop stressing and to shut up! LOL

dmorris68

25-08-2007 15:13:56

Often NONE of the images work, not just the barcode. My last had no images other than the site logo.

Their webmaster/designer skills leave a lot to be desired. They turnover so many sites that it appears they simply copy/paste files between sites, and leave lots of broken links in the process.

But they're still a good network all around, and tend to take care of folks when they have real technical problems, so if proofreading and copy/paste errors are the most I have to complain about, I can live with it. )

Question about the plasma website...can you do more than one of the offers that is connected with the savings smart offer? Offers such as value max, at home rewards, etc...? I just want to make sure I do not get disqualified.

Thanks!

As long as you don't do it twice (ie, the value max twice), it shouldn't be a problem.

It looks fine. I found myself looking for dead pixels before I realized it was a plasma, but since it worked, I'm peachy.

There is no guarantee that what you sold it for is fair market value, but to do so you'd have to report both the receipt and the sale.

Supposedly you can report fair market value at the time of receipt, not necessarily what they paid for it. However it's a bit of a pain to document FMV and it complicates your return. Because the 1099 is issued for I-Deal's value, you have to also report that value, otherwise the discrepancy between what they report paying you and what you report, will trigger an alarm on your return. The idea is that you then offset the FMV difference elsewhere on the return. I briefly considered doing this when filing my 2006 return, but quickly figured out it was more trouble than it was worth, not to mention that after researching how to do it, it seemed a bit shady to try. There was simply no line item on my return than made any sense with regards to declaring the FMV adjustment, and I found nothing in the IRS rules or tax code that said this was okay to do, or described how to do it properly.

So I wound up just reporting the full value that was on the 1099, even though I knew FMV was less at the time. For example, I-Deal paid nearly $1000 for my 24" monitor, when I could have bought it myself at the time for $750.

For some reason it asks for liphoneli and liphone #li, when I submit, it denies me and keeps saying that the liphoneli box is incorrect. What are we supposed to put in the liphoneli box? I've sent an email to them asking what I should do, but haven't heard from them yet. I noticed a link that Zaggs posted, but it looks a little different than the one I tried to fill out earlier. Can I use the same form Zaggs posted or is that going to mess things up?

At first I typed in my phone # but then I saw that the box below that specified it. So I changed it by putting the word "cell" in the liphoneli box. When I click submit it will decline my info saying that liphoneli is incorrect...I scroll down and then mysteriously my phone # is in the box instead. Why I do not know?...I keep changing it to cell, but it keeps putting my phone # in it even though I keep changing it. I've even tried sending it with my phone #, but it won't take that either so I"m lost... (

hi,

just wanted to say, as for me i was processed july 17. I haven't received the tv yet. was really worried the shipment got lost or shipped back so i emailed them last week and received a response. they said my plasma was shipped on the july 27th. i emailed them back asking for tracking #. they responded that they couldn't ship the plasma to hawaii because it might damage the tv. so they are waiting for the vendor to ship it out and it's going to be a LCD. not sure what size or brand though. hope it's good.

also besides obviously plugging it in and checking if it works while the delivery driver is there, should i be looking out for anything else before i sign?

You'll most likely have a better gaming experience on a plasma anyway. Response times and black levels (critical for gaming) are almost always better with plasma. Until LCD's improved dramatically, plasma was always the hardcore gamers choice for big-screen gaming.

Burn-in with plasma is still something to be aware of, but it's not as bad as it used to be. If you take basic precautions, such as watching TV in between games, don't pause the game for long periods, and don't play the same game with the same HUD displayed for weeks or months on end, permanent image retention should not be a big problem. Keep in mind that [ie9d9358dd6]temporary[/ie9d9358dd6] image retention is possible with any technology, including LCD, so regardless of which one you go with, don't necessarily freak out at the first sign of it.

Well, this certainly hasn't been the best experience for me, but I'm not exactly upset. I got a call from my Mother-in-Law today telling me that she got a post card from PC Connection saying they tried to deliver the plasma to her address (which is my old address). They somehow didn't have my contact number to call me. The main problem is that the Plasma is in a warehouse in Michigan waiting to be delivered and I live in Florida. I also requested the check instead of the plasma. I would assume that the reason this happened is because my account was manually processed and I didn't fill out the normal form that everyone else did. I did include a note on my paperwork I sent in stating my new address and requesting a check instead of the plasma. I'm kind of stuck right now, but it's a better problem to have than not receiving anything. Perhaps if Molly is reading this she can pm me or email me. Any suggestions?

lol, you can't request a check. and if you got manually processed, they would most likely just send to the address you signed up with.

I realize this which is why I said this in my original post. To make it clear, im not mad, just confused and a little stuck at the moment. As far as the check request comment, i thought there was an option to receive an $800 check instead. This was on plasmatv4free, btw. Its not a big deal anyway, I just thought that was an option. I have no problem selling it, I just thought it would be easier to get a check instead.

I realize this which is why I said this in my original post. To make it clear, im not mad, just confused and a little stuck at the moment. As far as the check request comment, i thought there was an option to receive an $800 check instead. This was on plasmatv4free, btw. Its not a big deal anyway, I just thought that was an option. I have no problem selling it, I just thought it would be easier to get a check instead.[/quote1fdeb299fa]

Ohh ok heh, the lower amount check option, still confusing as they don't do that on all sites.

Hey everyone. I'm new to the forum but not to freebies. Just completed the 12 offers for my Samsung plasma. What kind of timeline can I expect for offer credit, account approval, shipping, arrival, etc? I know this might be a lot to ask but I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

Also, if anyone is interested, here is the product information page for the Samsung model from Best Buy's site

If you read through this whole topic I'm sure you can find all your answers

But.. offers credit on the 20th day

On your 20th day if some of your offers don't credit... you do more

Once those turn approved you are able to print out a cert and you mail it out to them, once received it usually takes anywhere from 1-4 weeks to process that cert. Once you are processed they give you a time line of about 6-8 weeks to receive your product

ps. I believe this site requires a referral now... so of course you have to wait till your referral is all done too

farsa624

After 20 days if a few of your offers didn't credit, yes you have to do more.

Say you got credit for 9 out of 10 offers

Page 1 .. one offer didn't credit.

You can do a replacement and it should credit within 24-48 hours.

BUTTTTT...

Say you got 8 out of 10 offers approved at 20 days

but on page 1... neither your offers credited... so page one has 0 credits... you would have to do two more and wait 20 more days.

mookieb2

07-09-2007 16:15:23

40 days? Yu need to do the replacements immediately.

If you got no credits on page 1 or 2 it will be another 20 days for your replacements to show credited.

If you are getting close to the 60 days, you might send in a email alerting Ideal as to whats happening.

Hopefully someone else can back up what I've said or has experience with Ideal and expirations so that they can give you a fuller answer.

Best case is that most of the replacement offers you do would credit, if one doesn't credit you'll be out of time before you can do a replacement.

Sorry, move on to another site and watch your time more carefully.

you still might be able to squeak it in. How many offers have credited? If offers credit over night, you can get it done. If all credited from page 3 then you'll only have 4 offers left. Plenty of time, IMO. I would read the crediting guide here at FIPG.

You're good, just send in the forms. You can send it priority with delievery conformation if you like, that way you knwo when the recieved it. However don't send it in anything that they have to sign for.

You will be processed in 2-4 weeks probably. If you pass your 60 day mark, no worries, when they process you, you will go back to active.

You're all set. Congratulations!

if you have had any prior experience with i-deal (either a previous site or keeping up with other threads), you should know what happens when people use the 'contact us' link.

you should also know that nobody here is going to just hand out any i-deal e-mail addresses.

finally, you should also know the randomness of i-deal timelines. depending on the site, they can be very short or they can be very long.

if you are not happy with my response, you can use google to find contact information.

Ive had enough experience with ideal to understand how their CS works And their timelines as u said. But that still does not change the fact that my account has expired close to 2 months and others have already received their gifts within a month after they submitted their vouchers.
so does that make me the bad person for trying to get some help from this site thats based on helping others with freebies? What would your suggestion be for my situation?? stop using the 'contact us' because they never answer? stop asking for molly's contact because there is nobody here that will help? or should i just sit here and "patiently wait" as i been doing so for the pass 2months i mailed my voucher?

if CS doesnt answer my only last resort is molly, so if anyone does have her email just pass long my message. i could careless if i get her email just as long i get my message to her...

You usually have to show photo ID and sign for the tv. They sometimes call in advance and sometimes don't.

Officially confirmed, no, but look at the pattern. I do not think that it is typically only one day a month though, it seems to be spread out over the weeks. My estimate is that they will start shipping the actual product between 23-30. I do definately see a pattern.

prizejunkie

19-09-2007 21:34:28

I 'v read a lot of time lines, a lot of people get their products 20th-30th so they are obviously ordered before then. I was confirmed on the 30th.... You get confirmed about 2 weeks after they get the forms, they ship like 3 weeks after that on average... Lookin at timelines it seems the average wait after confirmation is 30 days, time of the month doesnt seem to play a role.

Hello Guys....

My status is similar to Prizejunkie....The only thing is he moved within the city i guess.....I moved to different city...But have given my old address in the certificates also mailed them few days back w/ my old address....They recieved it on the 13 th of this month....
Now i am going to travel abroad for couple of months later this week.....How do i change my address now to ensure the gift is delivered to my current mailing/shipping address ?

I called brandarama and they changed my addrress without any problem.

Now i am worried about this Plasma tv.....How do i change the address now?What if they ship my tv to my old address?Did u guys recieve the TV via Fedex or UPS?Pl let me know.....

prizejunkie

23-09-2007 07:45:24

most of us did it before th referal was needed.

Smiley, contact the people who live where you used to tell them what the deal is, they cant claim the tv since they need a photo id. Make sure you have your phone, the carier might call. Worst case scenario the TV gets sent back to PC connection and you have to pay shipping back to you.
mookie what was your timeline, seems most t's get there by 3 days after processing I hope this is the case for me

Edit OK you can not change your address once you send out your certs and get processed with that address. It's that simple.

As to that rebate... I don't think anyone should attempt it because if anyone should be it's ideal as their the ones buying it not us.

If you were processed the end of aug... you might have missed that shipment so you can kinda bank of having your item ordered this week and receive it in another week or two.

But that's not a given but going by the previous months.

Agreed. I still think they dedicate one week to processing (last week), then do shipping the following week (this week). I may be completely wrong, but I've tried to follow previous months timings.

I told you, they won't change your address if they already processed your certs.

Mainly for security reasons I'm sure because what If I logged into your account and opened a ticket up requesting your tv to be shipped to me. You think they would just do it? No.

As someone else said, they also "didnt have a phone number" for me so they just came by the address to drop it off. Thankfully I was taking a "sick" day from work and was home for the delivery. He said he would have just left a note but still. Might not be a bad idea if you think your round of shipment should have gone out to figure out who your local freight company is and give them a call.

I went 12/12 on offers first try (20 days) and sent in my forms on 7/19. I got a knock on my door on 8/22 when my TV showed up.

As someone else said, they also "didnt have a phone number" for me so they just came by the address to drop it off. Thankfully I was taking a "sick" day from work and was home for the delivery. He said he would have just left a note but still. Might not be a bad idea if you think your round of shipment should have gone out to figure out who your local freight company is and give them a call.[/quote6874bdd313]

Freight companies vary depending on your location.[/quote301f44cde9]

hmmm....They are not responding to any of my messages..i sent like 3 times mentioning abt the change of address....i don't know what to do...apt management is not so helpful......([/quote301f44cde9]

I told you, they won't change your address if they already processed your certs.

Mainly for security reasons I'm sure because what If I logged into your account and opened a ticket up requesting your tv to be shipped to me. You think they would just do it? No.[/quote301f44cde9]

So what happens now????My previous residence is in Southern california....How am i suppose to know when they will ship my tv?I am confused...don't know what to do.Apt mangement is not so helpful.I know UPS frieght carrier and Fedex...Apart from that is there any other frieght carrier around?

What happens if the TV goes back to PC conenction?(am not sure who is PC connection)....If they call before delivering the TV it would be good.Atleast i can tell them that i have moved from there....anyway any advice guys?

Ok to answer almost all those questions after my post, the freight company is yellow freight. Which is a huge company throughout the U.S. So more than likely you have gotten something shipped from them. Also the tv came from connection pc, but connection pc told the freight place that i had won a free tv. Not sure why they said that, but they shipped it to yellow freight, where in turn i had to get it from them. Which took ahwile since, they lost my papers, but i got it!!! So hopefully that helps a little bit more.

Yes, there are many other freight companies. I would say UPS and FedEx freight operations, unlike their parcel shipping operations, are probably fairly small as far as freight business goes. At least I rarely see them delivering freight around here.

PC Connections is the vendor that I-Deal orders most of their electronics from. I'm sure any change of address after the product is enroute would incur freight charges, but it would be better to pay them than to lose the TV.

I don't normally suggest (in fact, I strongly discourage) it, but this would be a justifiable reason for calling PC Connections. Give them the address and info that it was shipped to, and ask them if they can redirect the shipment without it coming back to them -- it would probably be cheaper. Expect to pay an extra fee though, and perhaps prove your identity by faxing ID or something. Freight shipping on such an item usually runs around $100 or so, but I don't know what a redirect would cost.

Yellow Freight is only one of the carriers used. It depends on where you live, as Yellow doesn't service all areas.

And the vendor is PC Connection, not Connection PC.

i hope that wii strap doesnt come loose and smack into your new tv[/quoted3458d2a17]
=) I was wondering who would make the first wii comment! It is such a vast difference going from my 32" 43 to this 42" 169! I can't wait to get my xbox 360 elite from gadgetoverstock. That'll look amazing.

Got my tv yesterday. Now just have to wait till Monday for the Dish HD installer to come. Right now im suffering with horrible tv quality. (just moved the black screw in cable from the current dish dvr's tv now to this plasma)

DRay9911

20-10-2007 12:09:20

to those who have received a panasonic this past week (or to those who's friends have received a panasonic), is it still this model

liamazon.comli[=http//www.amazon.com/Panasonic-TH-42PX75U-720p-Plasma-HDTV/dp/B000O321IW/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-0167835-2740743?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1190231436&sr=8-1]liamazon.comli

if so, can someone with a tape measure please measure the base?

i have a dresser i want to put my tv on (it's coming on monday). if the base is too big for the dresser, i'm going to have to start looking for a new entertainment unit (which i'd like to avoid buying if i can).

thank you very much.

the yellow truck came today and i saw the tv in the back...

...but my effing apartment decided today was the day they were going to re-asphalt not only my portion of the parking lot but the next closest section of the parking lot. so there was no way for the truck to get close enough to get the tv to me.

i had to watch the guy close the door to the truck and drive away.

not only that, but the re-delivery is scheduled for freaking wednesday (the mostly likely time the parking lot will be finished and striped).

22-10-2007 15:14:56

i'm mostly pissed that i burned a vacation day because i wasn't sure when they would show up. now i have to cross my fingers come late afternoon/early evening on wednesday because i don't want to have to leave work early.

had the work crew not been working on the next closest piece of parking lot, there wouldn't have been a problem. but it was too much of a bitch to walk through the lot without a tv, it would have been worse with it. i asked the apartment lady if i could load it into a golf cart and drive it through with a maintenance guy, but she said they weren't insured for it.

oh well...another 48 hour wait

Well thankfully I don't go to work lol.

Anyways, DISH HD guy came today. Installed a new HD dish plus HD DVR.


OH MY FREAKING GOSH. Im addicted to the tv now lol. Its so beautiful!!!!!!
I guess no more downloading illegal episodes of tv shows, now I'll watch em in HD.

What I thought was pretty cool are the HD only channels. HDNEWS is awesome! I love it. Plus of course HD pay per view is pretty cool (recordable to the dvr or external hard drive). Cool to watch HD movies without a HD player for blu ray or hd dvd's.

DRay9911

23-10-2007 05:29:19

i currently have an hd-dvr in the living room (with a 50" samsung dlp) and am using it a lot more now that we're into the tv season.

do you (or anyone else) currently have an external hard drive to record hd programming? how does that work and what do you need besides the hard drive?

the tv from this site was going to go into the bedroom and i was debating whether to pay the extra to get another dvr from cox cable or to get an external hard drive.

On 10/12/2007 I sent my redemption certificate and W-9 form from Ohio to the address listed on the redemption form. I sent it USPS with delivery confirmation. As of today, according to the USPS tracking information, there is no record of the item I sent.

I do not want to miss the deadline for submitting my redemption certificate so should I send another copy of the redemption certificate and W9 form?

I sent an email to their customer service but their response did not answer my question.

Maybe I am just worrying too much.

For one of the plasma sites I did the DC tracking info never once updated and said there was no record of it, but I still got processed so the DC tracking was just messed up, i think it happened to tyler too.
