Makro Sinotec Full HD Special

sinc when? usually its when their policy is considered. the policy of 10% less the difference of the lowest price and theirs.

I think these days people tend to use credit cards or overdrafts to buy stuff which is cash and not on HP cos of the insurance, interest etc being so high on HP.

Since always :p I remember many years ago even, when my dad bought things for cash. You can always ask them for a discount.

Eish, my bro-in-law introduced the wife to some rings on bid-or-buy a few days ago. Wont get it past her:(
 
I would really appreciate some help here guys.Samsung plasma at Game sells for
R8999.00 model number PS 42B430.Stax have a Samsung plasma PS 42B450 for R9999.00
It would appear that the 42B450 is a newer model than the 42B430 and has additional features.The other point is the "newer model"worth the extra R1000.00 or I am I mistaken.Help would be much appreciated as well as your input.
 
IMO, and I havent seen the "new features", but i would most certainly take the cheaper one.

how much extra stuff can it possibly have? My guess is when it's sitting in your lounge you won't even notice a difference!

I'd rather take that R1000 and buy something else as well, while your shopping.

(though - if it WAS me who had to choose, i'd take a look at the specs first)
 
(though - if it WAS me who had to choose, i'd take a look at the specs first)I have looked at the spes but being a novice at this game I requested help.It will be in my back room which is 3 by 3 metres only.
 
This has been mentioned else where but is worth repeating.

The Sinotec 5 year warranty is only applicable to sets purchased from Makro. Any where else and it is 24 months..

I bought mine from PnP....:mad:

I purchased my 42" Sinotec LCD at Game on special a few months ago for R6999.00 and I also have a 5 year warranty.
 
Thank you for the information Keeper.I still am not sure what every bit of the specs mean.Furthermore I have certain other specs for both modelswhich were taken from the same website.I went to Stax and Game this afternoon.Stax had a set on display while Game did not.I got a complete idiot at Game who knew nothing except they do have stock of the 430.Both are series 4 models however the R1000.00 difference I will pay on the DVD HD Player.which is R1099.00 at both places.The differences betwwen the 430 and 450 I can live with for R1000.00
 
i agree placebo, not worth it - but i posted the specs for others to see and help you, if they see something worthwhile...seems not.
 
The main difference is certain connections on the side of the 450 plus an extra HDMI input.Furthermore the 450 has an headphone jack and a DC sub.From what I could gather the 430 is the European model while the 450 is for America.The r1000.00 pays for the Samsung HD Player.Will go to Game with the TV license tomorrow and will then see what I must do to fit everything in.My lounge has a Panasonic TV which the MP hogs watching BBC education and BBC movies.Back to the point the Samsung has a magnificent picture quality and better than the LCD sets I saw at Stax.
