i've been searching on this forum but it seems like Sharp is not favored by our ppl here...
i wonder why because i'm planning on buying Sharp LCD for my xbox360...
and recently sharp has come out a new model "LC37A66M" for 37" LCD and it has become my target...any comment from all sifu here?

note: After a considerable amount of time spent in surveying...i have narrow my target to either SONY or SHARP.if sharp is not good then i will go for sony, any recomended model for sony? my budget is rm5000 and at least 37"...

thanks all sifu here for the reply.I think i will go for Sharp 37A66.

Yesterday i've been to the shop and viewed the model myself, i'm satisfied with the picture quality especially when displaying the HD movie using the HDMI cable.

dashisiong, i'm getting mine sharp 37A66 for RM 2650, plus another 3 years warranty that'll be RM 2860.

I've gave up the aim on 42A66 because the price gap is so much, RM2650 and RM 3.8K++...

By the way, any recommendation on which brand of HDMI cable that i should get? or anything that i should take into account when choosing HDMI cable? (sorry..i didn't do much research on this...haha)

Bro, where u get your sharp LCD?
The price for A66 37" u get RM 2650 is damn low. (how long is the warranty?)
IF buy at RM 2860 means total 3 years warranty? or total 5 years?

I know sharp is giving first yr all risks warranty...including stolen.

My price i am getting in JB is 2 yrs warranty RM 2980, of course 1 yr is all risk.

Thanks

And yes, the first year all risk warranty is given by sharp...standard..

Good info Ekit..

For me tonite, I got bad experience with this HLK.. 

1st shop, the one at Seksyen 7 Bandar Baru.. after 30 minits of negoing from the price tag.. finally they offered me rm2890 with 1 free gift. Stand Fan & after negoing again, they willing to change to HDMI cable. The price tag of cable, rm199. I pay deposit for rm50 & will be coming tomorrow to pay the balance.

Due to rain, I decided to go to another HLK shop at Seksyen 4, which is just 5 minit drive. There, I asked the salesman for the bet price they can give for the same model. Without any hard negotiation, the best they can give is for rm2650 !!!  What the hack is going on here ??  I'm being con !!  rm2650 + rm199 hdmi cable = rm2849 ...

Why the 1 st shop rob me for another rm41 ???

For Ekit case he getting 5 years warranty with rm2860..  Congrates for the good buy Ekit.

So, guys please don't go to this two shop in Bandar Baru Bangi...  If I refer this posting 1st, for sure I go straight to Balakong...

Well, maybe I should pay just for the HDMI cable & cancel the A66M ..

Here my deposit receipt for proof...

Hi... sory, forgot what brand it is. But, packaging like the one in Jalan Pasar.  Thinking of canceling the order & get refund or bought something else. If they can reduce to rm2650, maybe will take it.

May I know yr Salesman name at HLK Balakong..  So, easy I can refer them to him/her.

Oh...i dun really know his name, in fact, i never have asked... tongue.gif
but he is very easy to recognize, a young guy, short, chinese and the only "young" chinese in the shop. hmm.gif

I went back to the shop at Seksyen 7 yesterday night...  the salesman that attended me yesterday was on leave & nobody know that I had came yesterday.. at that point of time, there were 1 couple, also asking about the same model.. I asked them, what price that they were offered... then came one salesman (not around yesterday) and I asked him, the best price he can give me for that model..

With free S-video cable, he offered me for rm2799...  then, I ask if without any free give & payment with cash / credit card.. Surprisingly, he offered me for using credit card… for rm2,647-00 & asked me to direct confirm. Even cheaper of rm3 from Ekit…  He already very eager to enter the sale into the PC. I asked him to wait, went to my car and get the yesterday receipt & show it to him. As he promised earlier, I insisted on the price he offered me. He became very surprised & went straight to his supervisor, which was around a day before.

I gave some angry face & loud voice, arguing why the hell the other shop can give rm2650 & they cannot!!  Even, the other shop is under the same boss. If not mistaken, at that point of time, the boss was also present at the shop. Takut boss!!

Finally, the salesman agreed, the different of price due to the “free HDMI cable”… hahaha betul la tuu…  He reprints my deposit receipt & omits the so call free HDMI cable. As I promised earlier to the salesman, I paid the full amount. As confirm today, delivery will not later then this Friday.

I checked at Best Denki in Sogo & Times Square, they still don’t have this 66series. Checked at SengHeng Seksyen 9 BBBangi, they also cannot give the above price. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to go to Mines. Some more, will incur fuel & parking charges. Thanks again guys, for the support . thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

Haha. congrat on the purchase Hafez! rclxms.gif

So you purchased at the price of RM2647 without that so called "free gift" or with HDMI cable?
because i got mine for RM2860,5 years warranty, free gift is an iron and an optical cable... yawn.gif
