Comparison:

 

[PeterCH]

The THP50Z1 - the best Plasma out right now goes for a whopping ￥452,800!
Link Amazon JP.

That's $5000.00. On the SA market it should translate to R50K.

 

[ToxicBunny]

R50k?.. i think you're smoking something PeterCH...

that would translate into something closer to R100k in this country I reckon, at least for the first 6months while its "new" technology

You're actually right. I was thinking that they'd use a typical markup value of 10x USD to generate the price. But yeah, AudioVision and Co, would rip us off.

Still it may be an idea to self-import. If you do a bank transfer I even know a reputable site which would do it today.
