3D TV Pricing

I am very interested in this, i currently have a 37" TV in my living room, however my living room is very small, I sit around 5ft max away from the screen so its a bit overbearing.

 

This 3DTV at 24" intrigues me a lot, the USA price is $499. I would be happy to pay £399, i feel that any more than that and we are paying waaay over the odds for this item. If it were to be priced at £499 that equates to $819. So please no one roll out the VAT excuse for this item, £399 equates to $655 which still seems excessive. Ideally i would like a price of £349 for this but that is a pipe dream, just please dont shaft us at £499 and you will sell a boat load of these.

Re: 3D TV Pricing

Its pretty clever, Sony must be losing money on it, but its a great way of cornering the market and getting 3D into a lot of homes, a lot like Blu Ray with PS3.

Well apparently...

 

"the 24-inch set will be part of a bundle including a pair of active shutter 3D glasses, an HDMI cable, plus Resistance 3 for the PS3, one of the games equipped for third dimensional action. And all for a very respectable $499 (£304)."

At £304, I think I know what I'll be asking for come Christmas!

Re: 3D TV Pricing

Aye thats my point, it is no doubt awesome! But i will not pay a penny more than £399 for it, even at that price it is massively over the USA price way more than 20% VAT compensation.

 

£350 is a fair price, £399 is what i expect, £499 is a joke.

Re: 3D TV Pricing

Is this a 3dtv with a built in tv tuner or is it just a monitor
