Samsung PAVV 40" (LN40A650A1F/W) purchased in late May last year so it's less than a year old. The picture is beautiful. At the time I spent 1.9 M Won, more than the average price for an LCD of that size because this particular TV is among their higher end models. It is full HD 1080P, 120Hz with a 3ms refresh rate, 70,000:1 contrast. With my Blu-Ray player it looks amazing. Also included is the Indiana Jones trilogy DVD box-set that came with the TV as a promotion. It comes from a clean, non-smoking apt. A price check about a month ago priced this model at 1.75 to 1.8. I'm sure that will be corrected if I'm wrong. I bought the wall mount rather than the stand. I can help transport but the cost is the responsibility of the buyer. Don't worry about scams. I won't request money until the TV has been delivered. I live in Anyang.

Jeff's Cigarettes - if your offer of 1Mil still stands it's a welcome offer but I would like to post this for a couple of weeks to see if someone may offer a little more. Hope you understand.

The included discs are they dvd or blue ray? Are you also looking to sell your blue ray player as a bundle with the Pavv?

The discs are dvd, region 3. I was actually thinking about throwing in my blu-ray player but there is one problem. Region 3 dvds-no problem and most of my blu-rays will play without fail but a couple of titles (The Police Reunion Concert for example) load only half the time. I don't think it's a mechanical issue rather a firmware issue but I don't know for sure. I've updated it with the latest firmware from Samsung. Perhaps a few more bugs need to be worked out. But yeah, if someone wants me to throw it in I'll do that for a reasonable price for the entire bundle. The machine will also upconvert dvds by the way. Will not play region 1's though. **Note: For those who don't know, Blu-Rays are not as region specific as dvd's. They are region encoded but Korea and North America are part of the same region unlike dvds. All of my Blu-Rays have been imported from Amazon in the U.S. and play just fine on my player.

I would like to know more about your TV.

I sent you a PM.

But can you answer the following.....

1) Do you know how much it would cost for me to get a stand for the TV?

2) Should we assume you're including the wall mount?

3) Do you have any wires that come with it, for example to hook up a laptop?

4) Do you still have the receipt?

Thanks

Yes, the mount is included. Yes, I have the receipt for both the tv and the blu-ray player. I'm guessing around 200K Won for a stand. I remember inquiring at the time but I knew it was going on the wall so I didn't make a mental note of it. An HDMI cable is included with the blu-ray player but I can't quite remember if the TV came with any. I found a new component cable in my junk drawer but I can't remember if it came with the tv or the pc that I bought around the same time. I'll find out. I don't think it did come with any cables but I have all the manuals and documents that came with it and I'll give everything a thorough check.

So just to be clear, what movies come with the Blu-Ray dvd player? Are the Indiana Jones movies Blu-Ray? Are they in English?

Are there any other Blu-Rays in English that you have?

Also, what's the current bid on your TV?

How does HiDef porn look on it?

The current bid is 1150K Won for the tv itself. The player is extra. I'm not selling any blu-rays with the player. The Indy Jones set is DVD not Blu-Ray and is region 3. All movies are in English with optional subtitles in Korean, English and a few others. In response to a question about regions - If you want to buy the player to start a blu-ray collection basically don't worry about regions anymore. Region A includes North America, Korea and I think Europe among others. Implosion, never used it for porn. I just use my laptop for that.
