Hey all;

With all the recent hype about UHDTV, I thought this eBay ad might be of interest. Look at the super cheap shipping price too!!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Genuine-Samsung-UN110S9AF-Ultra-HD-110-Full-UHD-S9-Series-LED-LCD-Smart-TV-/111353904851?pt=Televisions&hash=item19ed35bed3

I'm ready to move to this next generation :banana::banana:

Don't let this one get "away"......

DID ANY new consumer tv EVER cost this much legitimately ??

And I would think a "UHDTV" would be 4K res.--NOT 2160...

Check out the reviews of the smaller model on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-UN85S9-85-Inch-Ultra-120Hz/dp/B00CMEN95U/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1401075030&sr=8-5&keywords=samsung+4k+tv

:lmao: that has got to be the funniest thing I've read on Amazon.

IIRC the CT-100 was 5,000$ in 1954 when the average car cost about 2,000$, and that UHD set is 40,000 when and average cost of a car last year was about 30,000$. If you look at the cost to be on the cutting(bleeding?) edge of television over the years in terms of how many new cars you could have bought instead (2.5 in '54 vs. 1.3 today) then we are saving about half the cars that we would have to give up to get the TV 60 years ago...

I believe you are WRONG about this. Somone here may know for sure--but I THINK the CT-100 was about ONE thousand--1250 in 1954. NOT FIVE thousand.

That is why there is an IIRC (short for If I Recall Correctly) in front of that that price....
It's been a few years since I last saw the original price quoted.

The sad part is, many will be stupid enough to actually buy these.

amazon reviews are a hoot...

And I would think a "UHDTV" would be 4K res.--NOT 2160...
2160p is the vertical resolution of "4K" or "UHD" displays. The horizontal resolution is 3840, which is rounded to get the "4K" number. Both resolution numbers are exactly twice the resolution of a 1080p "Full HD" display.

Geez, I ought to just sell my Canon digital camera with "Full HD" video and wi-fi for what I can get for it while that model is still being sold new. Someone else is giving me a camera that shoots in standard def, all I'll ever want.

Panasonic has a 152 inch plasma that sells for $100,000. They had it at one of the CEDIA shows. They provided the installation and if my memory is correct, it needs 3 phase electricity to operate. It was 2200P if memory isn't too cloudy.

I have one of those Seiki 4k sets, 55" paid like $600 for it. Nice TV, not much content unless you hook it up to a computer. My viewing distance is about 9 feet, you can notice the smaller pixels at that distance if your vision is good enough.

Oh, Prunella... I want/need at least 5 of 'em, wonder what kinda Deal would he make me ?!? Lessee now.. One for the Living Room, one for my Office, one in the Bedroom, one in the Ship's Radio Room, one in the Chithouse, maybe one in the Kitchen...Of course, the Junky Old Porthole Zenith, & that fugly l'il 621 will HAVE TO GO...(grin)

I'd think that the heat cycles and shower steam in the can would make it crap out prematurely, like in one year instead of two. Better to leave the door open while on the throne and mount it on the opposite wall.

Saved me from a bad decision.
By Michael Wolfangeron January 27, 2014
My fiancee said the money I spent on this TV was supposed to be for our wedding and to either take it back or she's leaving. The TV would never make me choose, so the choice practically made itself. Samsung saved me from what surely would have been a loveless marriage to a bitter, selfish wench.

Convertible G4
By Clay Leonon November 28, 2013
With the $5000 discount provided by Amazon, I couldn't help but buy 10 of these bad boys. I had my servants mount them to the ceiling of my G4 jet and wired GoPro cameras to the roof. Now it's like I'm flying in a convertible G4. Get on my level. BALLING OUT OF CONTROL!


Yah I know it's all property of Amazon now, and I stole coppyrighted stuff
..... I wonder how much they makin off the ads people click on reading
this stuff for hours...... Anyone tell these poor souls they loosin out on
enough ad revenue in a year to actually BUY this thing.....

It turned out cheaper to buy a 40" TV and ...
By Simon Thornellon September 1, 2014
It turned out cheaper to buy a 40" TV and replace everything I own with halve size replicas. I married into a family of Hobbits and moved to Hobbittown in the west farthing of the Shire. I only walk around on my knees and I moved the sofa 3 feet closer to the television. Problem solved. 20k saved.


An observation reading all these reviews..... People DO have a way to find the money for true Necessities....
another observation...... in '56 RCA really F'd up going from a 15" roundie that they had a hard time selling,
to that 21" That was just stupid !

They should have jumped over 50 years of itty bitty sets and made their second roundie a 56"er.........
I'M Sure people would have found ways to afford it ! ! ! and Kidney operations today would be Much
Much cheaper given all the advancements that would have been made.....

Just think of how much happier all of you guys would be if these roundies showing up on CL would be a little
more realistic in their screen size.....


CL / for sale / UHDTV 56" round screen portable tv from 1959?? $2,000. you have to move it.

This one is a better deal as it comes with free shipping. :)

I beleive the Panasonic 152" is a good bit higher than $100,000. Panasonic only showed still images on it at CEDIA a few years ago and wouldn't put anything full motion on it :nono:.
