Jumbo at GIP, Noida offered discounting on both E550 and E8000. I was enquiring about it, extended warranty and all, and suddenly he said I'll give you a nice deal - I was not expecting that as they have been very cold on price earlier. He did not say how much but will give if I decide to buy asap. Apart from discount, offered to buy back tab for around 10k which I said was too low. He said he'll give appropriate discount and will make it worthwhile.
He even asked me to do my research on price at other shops and assured he can offer me best deal.
They were pushing me to go for E8000 saying it is a better TV despite my telling them that even 78k is high for me. Maybe they can offer me E8000 in that price. Seems like sales is not picking and they are getting panicky. E8000 is available on order only and will be delivered in 3-4 days - there was no unit on display. He had only 2-3 enquiries written in his notebook for E8000 and took down my no.
Checked audio from E550 - was pretty basic and low but should do ok for watching TV in home environment. A home theatre was blasting away nearby and he had to put it at 100% level to be able to hear it. Its a mirror, I was able to read everything in reflection - too bad, what were they thinking.
There was no extended warranty neither through Samsung nor Bajaj Finance.
I intend to visit again tomorrow for Skyfall
If I go and get a good deal, might pay up. EMI option is good, no interest. But it has be around 78k for me to pick E8000.
