New LCD - Samsung LN40B550

After waiting 2 months, finally Bestbuy let me exchange the "crap" Westinghouse 42" LCD for another LCD because they weren't able to order the part to repair the TV(actually Geek Squad guy never came to my house to check TV and I just said with him to phone" my TV has non-working HDMI ports" and he said he ordered the mainboard to repair it which never came). They didn't let me get 120Hz set so I decided to go with Samsung Ln40B550(new 2009 model) Paid $70 more and brought it home.(Just google it if you wanna know the price :)




I tried to play some Jp PS2 games and the pictures look better than my previous Westinghouse TV. Yeah, these are 480i pictures, no HD yet.

Anime Haul at Bestbuy - Part 2 -

Last week, I drove over 200 miles to other Bestbuy stores(thanks to GPS) which I never came before and luckily their anime sections were better than my local Bestbuy store.





Finally I was able to score Akira,Gunbuster vs. Diebuster and Arfo Samurai Resurrection on Bluray for 50% off. A young guy cashier adjusted the price manually without asking unlike other **** girl cashiers.


I already spent totally $1k for this sale until now. It looks like I won't buy a new LCD because of this crazzzyyy sale.

Anime Haul at Bestbuy - Part 1 -

Monday:Due to snowstorm , I called out of work,stayed at home,played some games and slept. I didn't want to take a risk to drive to Bestbuy for anime sale in bad weather.




For anyboday who ask me where I sleep, this is it.



Tuesday: Snowstorm was stopped, I took a drive to Bestbuy and got a huge anime DVDs. I already spent over $400 on this sale but it'll be more when I come back. Here is the haul:



Very happy when I got 4 Dragon Ball Z Seasons that I missed for a good price. Shakugan No Shana Boxset for the OVA(I still have 5 singel DVDs,miss vol.3)....



3 volumes of When They Cry to complete the set. Clannad,Death Note Vol.7 & 8, Karin 5& 6(need to find vol.4).I really wanted Gunbuster vs.Diebuster Bluray and Akira Bluray but I got denied when I tried to get 50% off.



I also picked up Halo Wars which I already pre-ordered and some 1 cent guides. The last stop was Circuitcity, I bought some DVD movies with 70% off.




See ya at next haul:)
