According to a site I use this is a 1080p native display. Does anyone know anything about this display good or bad? I won't divulge what I know about mark up on these but I will say some of you would be shocked. Let me put it to you this way, don't have any sympathy for the sales people at your local electronics store, they are doing quite fine thank you very much. I thought the mark up on clothing was absurd, jeesh!

Yes we are all friends but if I'm not mistaken there
are some people on this board who are equipment
dealers and I didn't want to tick them off.

Heck, I wouldn't hesitate for a second if I knew the actual figures. As an
example, Radio Shack pays less than 14 cents for each AA or AAA battery they
sell. So can you imagine how cheaply Wal-Mart must get them for? And I'm
referring to Duracell and Energizer.

First, let me say I am not longer in the business.....as Hugh can vouch for.
But the profit margins in electronic equipment in general are pretty low.
That is not to say that some exceptions exist. My comment is based on many
years of experience in Retail, as wll as being involved on the Manufacturing
side as well.

Anthony,

This is the professional unit announced in Sep 05 for MSRP $9000, down to $6500 in the internet
shortly after, NO 1080P input, they look good, you can see my review of the regular unit on that
size in my CES 2005 report, I put the unit in first place of 1080ps to be sold (after TI's statement
model not for sale, the best in my opinion, even with wobulation), the JVC was ahead of Sony SXRD
and Samsung 1080p DLP, all in the 70's screen range.

Now the story changes. I hate this part.

My viewing of these set now noticed something you will read on the report coming out next week, it
took me a while to discover it, at first I thought it was the electronics, is an effect caused by
the interaction of the lenticular screen and the type of image, the effect displays itself as an
artificial pixel movement that the image could not have.

I pointed that to JVC, they were not aware, I told them to look closer, and closer, they paid
attention, and there it was, no more first place, darn!

JVC's excuse was: thanks for pointing that out, we notice it now, but we get our lenticular screens
from the same couple of places everyone else does ! how could this be possible? we will look into
it.

I did not tell them my further test because they had enough already, but changes on the room
lighting affected differently the effect, when darker is more difficult to detect, which was exactly
the way I reviewed the set at CES 2005 as a prototype (9 months before it was out), in a perfect
dark theater in a private area.

Regarding the price of you super deal, there is a logical explanation:

In the report you will see why, but I will tell you why:

They are coming out with 3 new units 56, 61, and 70 (the 56 for $3500 MSRP)

The new 70" HD-70FN97 is coming out in 4 months (July 06), MSRP: $5500, and we know that on the
stores that means less than $5000, and on the Internet between $4000 and $4500, if not less.

The line was not announced as the professional replacement, but as a new line that suppose to
replace the current offering (the HD-70FH96 was also on the consumer series).

Watch it though !! STILL NO 1080p INPUTs, I had quite an exchange with JVC about that.

If you decide to wait thinking you will get 1080p inputs do not wait, but price will be better than
the current model you can get now, but time is money, and enjoyment is priceless for some, your
call.



How is this? Enough value on this TIPS list?



Best Regards,

Rodolfo La Maestra

Is it by chance a refurb or a closeout? Typically a TV will not have
anywhere near that type of mark-up. Do worry Anthony, you aren't upsetting
me. But this example is by no means a typical example of TV mark-ups.

Ok here you go. The unit's msrp is 8995.00. I have
seen it discounted online to around 6500.00. I can
purchase it for 4,890.00 plus shipping. I hope I
didn't tick anyone off.

It is neither Mark to my knowledge. The company I
work for is an authorized reseller for two different
distributors and that is the resellers price.

Ok here you go. The unit's msrp is 8995.00. I have
seen it discounted online to around 6500.00. I can
purchase it for 4,890.00 plus shipping. I hope I

But, isn't the price that you can sell it for tightly controlled? Is there
anything in place that would prevent you from selling that set to someone
for any price that you want to? Call me naive but I thought that the major
manufacturers had agreements with their dealers that they would not sell
any set below what they established as the retail price unless they
authorized a sale of a particular model or models. I thought that this
price control policy stayed in effect for at least a guaranteed period of
time. Beyond that time period discounting was allowed as replacement
models were coming to market. OR, is the issue that the dealer can't
advertise the set for sale for less than what the manufacturer sets as the
price but is free to sell it at a lesser price if it isn't advertised?

Can I assume that those on-line prices that you have seen are not from
authorized dealers? Is there really an issue regarding your warranty if
you buy the set from someone who is not a factory authorized
dealer? Denon, for example, claims that they will not honor any warranty
if the gear was not purchased from a factory authorized dealer.

Take the recent 60" and 50" Sony SXRD models that have been available for
several months. When they were first introduced their prices were $5K and
$4K respectively. Within a couple of months Sony dropped the retail price
by $500 on each model. Shortly after that discounting began and I have
seen them for sale for $4K and $3K respectively. In my opinion, biased of
course, you simply can't buy any type of set with a better picture for
those price points assuming you have the space to put them. I probably
would have bought one already for my den IF they had 1080P inputs. I'm
sure that the follow-on products will have 1080P inputs, hopefully multiple
inputs. I would think that the follow-on products are going to be
available very soon.

Be slow to attribute to malice what can be simply explained by ignorance or
stupidity.

This is not a retail situation and no the sets are not
sold at the price by us to the end client. They are
sold by us to them at the market price. We are a
reseller, the same way Best Buy, and Circuit City are.
What I showed you is our price, not what we charge.
