Ok so here's some inside info: Most of these prices have been the same or off-and-on every week since Thanksgiving. Also, all mid-level and up TV's are UMRP so every authorized retailer is required to sell them at the same price, so shopping around is a waste of time for those items. Go with the place that is the most convenient and has the best support.
