    Great price, if only it had local warranty support.

    Btw, does anyone know if Sony TVs can play .mkvs, avis?

    yeah warrnty the issue but I bought an onyko amp from these guys and the savings from buying it here was more than half price so worth the risk as I could just buy another one from amazon.de after the first one broke and still be saving money than buying local!

    Shipping is amazing fast via DHL, i got my amp in under 5 days, however they did leave it at the front door unattended but I did get confirmation it was sitting there so was able to race home

    Just be careful buying TVs from Europe. I brought my tv back from the UK and it had trouble picking up channels/sound with the inbuilt digital tuner. That was a couple of years ago so may now be fixed but remember it being a hassle at the time.

    • [Deactivated] on 27/07/2012 - 14:33

      That should not happen anymore - my TV works fine.

    • Make it so on 27/07/2012 - 15:02
      +1

      Europe uses different frequencies for digital TV. These frequencies are not compatible. So unless the tv supports both standards, it will not work. I found out by buying a set top box for someone in another country (fortunately it could be flashed to different firmware).

      I would not buy this tv unless I knew for sure it would work here.

      • snow36009 on 27/07/2012 - 15:07
        +1

        i install these all the time and it asks you which region of the world your in, then your country, then your area/state before starting the channel tuning process. so it can tune all channels worldwide fine.

      • Commonwealth Pig on 27/07/2012 - 15:27

        Worst case scenario you could just plug in a set top box and watch tv through that.

    • icheema on 27/07/2012 - 14:49

      its the AUD price I think, VAT will be taken out at checkout, off the advertised price of EUR 749.

          Yes, I went to www.oanda.com (this is what European Commission uses officially) and id a conversion. I never use the Amazon conversion service as they (and other companies) try to make some money off that, too.

  • kabigon on 27/07/2012 - 14:57

    Great TV and good price too, got mine for around $850 during the infamous Auspost/Good Guys gift card sale. Doesn't look like there's anywhere selling it locally within $2-300 at the moment. This model also has the USB recording function that was taken out of the Aussie version for who knows what reason.

    also just beware of differences in DVB-T technologies used in different countries.. I'm not familiar with what they use in Germany, but check that it works with Australia!

    You might end up getting a TV that you can't watch free-to-air TV with!

    • [Deactivated] on 27/07/2012 - 15:38

      Again, it should be fine. Mine works so I assume the standard is the same. One can always read up on DVD-T on wikipedia.
      Australia is normally very much the same as Europe (except for DVD region) - Bluray is the same, PAL, game discs are the same etc.

    • wbeer on 27/07/2012 - 15:44

      Use the savings to buy a PVR and use that as a tuner.

      It was never $800. You probably used the gift cards that were being sold at Australia Post for 20% less than face value.

      If you're after 3D glasses, check eBay. There are a few Australian sellers selling the rechargeable Sony TDG-BR250 glasses for around AU $80.

      That's a plasma for one. More of a personal thing, but I dislike plasmas, would always choose an LCD LED over plasma.

        I know its a plasma, But I'm thinking it includes 3d glasses, Full AUSTRALIAN warranty, 51 inches compared to 46. Im just wondering about the difference in PQ between the 2. and also 3d quality difference.

        • cdundee on 27/07/2012 - 18:32

          My old 42" pana plasma gave up just recently and I'm after a new one, anything will do, LED/LCD/Plasma. It is hard to find any stock with any retailer at the moment for ps51e550 (around $800), AFAIK possibly mid august in places I've called in Sydney but nothing confirmed. This seems to be a good deal and I find it hard not to go for it. Of course it is fairly oldish model already and I'd prefer to have those extra few inches…don't we always… most likely will see if there will be any stock for Samsung in few weeks time and if not, then wait for another killer deal from Germany :o)

    • ItsMeAgro on 27/07/2012 - 16:46

      If you want that price on a 50 inch, I think plasma or no-name-bad-quality are your only options.

  • sunaus on 27/07/2012 - 16:33

    Great deal.

    some brand TV in Germany might not receive australia channels, and you can have a look LG 47LK950S, which need hack setting.

    But some working well, like Toshiba TV.

    hopefully sony TV also working.

    • idontalwaysnotlie on 27/07/2012 - 20:30

      I brought that LG one and it works fine. It got all of the channels out of the box, without being "Hacked". 95% of modern TV's use the C-13 plug which is the same one on your desktop computer and many appliances.
      I have dealt with amazon before and they have amazing customer service.
      I prefer the passive LG 3D over this Sony active shutter vision and with a large family forking out $50 for a set of glasses is another issue.

  • giggles on 27/07/2012 - 16:37

  • tryonthis on 27/07/2012 - 16:46

    A few quick Q's before I drop some $$$ on this TV.

    1) Warranty. Would it be Sony International warranty?

    2) Any issues with picking up Australian TV channels?

    EDIT: Whilst still a good price, it appears it was going for $699 EUR a few months ago D:

  • Trishool on 27/07/2012 - 16:50

    Does this use an Aussie or German plug?

    • tryonthis on 27/07/2012 - 16:55

      Definitely not an Aust plug.

      • odysseus on 27/07/2012 - 17:06

        Euro plug. You'd need an adapter (as a minimum) to use this set here.

        • PinzVidz on 27/07/2012 - 19:25

          A lot of TVs these days have a C-13 type connection for the AC plug. Just ditch the Euro cable and use an Australian one (same as one for a PC power supply). Not sure if this would be the case for this Sony?

  • dookun on 27/07/2012 - 16:54

    this might be a silly question, but how do I find out what can or cannot be delivered from amazon.de to Aus

  • [Deactivated] on 27/07/2012 - 17:17
    +1

    To tryonthis: Yes, German plug but all you need is an adaptor for the plug. Even if it has been cheaper before that is no good to you if you cannot get it anymore for this price. The Xbox Kinect bundles have been cheaper last Christmas, too but that is no good if you want to buy it now, or is it?!?

    To mgowen: I read German fluently and this is just one review (many others are very postive hence the overall assessment). It also actually states that it has a beautiful picture with the Samsung panel. I would think that Sony has taken the problem on and just uses Samsung now. Also, there is manufacturer warranty (which should be global) and two year "warranty" prescribed by law in Germany. As stated before, I believe I have read that Amazon will pay for returning it should you not be satisfied (see my post above).

    To dookun: It is just try and error - that is what I do. Generally Samsung, LG, Philipps, Acer, Asus, Thomson, Sandisk products will not be sent to OZ by Amazon. However, Sony, Microsoft, and Toshiba products seem to be OK to be sent to Australia. I might be wrong but that is my experience so far.

        • MondaySleeper on 27/07/2012 - 23:15

          These LGs are Polish-built TVs, much better than the rubbish we get here in Oz. Good quality IMHO as I have the LCD version of the 47". 7 3D glasses included too, plugs can be changed, has a triple tuner and region can be changed to Australia, about $100 cheaper than the Sony which by no means is an outstanding TV, MCI400Hz. I'd do it. In fact I did it!

          A very good purchase then!

          As someone who is new to using Euro appliances, what adapter will I need in order for it work in Aust? Any old one off eBay or are there better alternatives?

          Pinch your spare computer cable and you'll be sorted! Yes same voltage. LG TVs are built Chinese style with generic software and hardware components where possible.

      • lostn on 28/07/2012 - 02:00

        $100~ cheaper, LG 47" LCD/LED 100hz, 3D Smart TV

        One caveat. If you care about 3D, LG uses passive 3D, which is only half resolution. Active 3D looks a lot better. The glasses are expensive, but you do get a pair with your TV.

    Re: post back shipping for warranty purposes with amazon, anything under $40 (US I guess), item is yours to keep and they will send you the new one. Anything above, you ship and pay then they will refund the cost. This I can confirm after a long chat with Amazon rep confirming warranty/shipping cost. FYI
