The following three Toshiba TVs are pretty cheap considering the quality and size:

Toshiba 40TL868G 102cm - $534 delivered from Amazon Germany - http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B005K8LALA/ref=ox_sc_act_tit…

Toshiba 40TL963G 101.6cm - $640 delivered from Amazon Germany - http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B007FMOOKI/ref=ox_sc_act_tit…

Toshiba 46TL933G 116.8cm - $737 delivered - http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B007FMOPQQ/ref=noref?ie=UTF8… (credit to ironpaw for that)

They both have the following features:

  • 3D-LED-Backlight-TV (40 Inch)/16:9
  • Resolution 1920 x 1080 Pixel (Full HD) / 3D in Full HD thanks to Active Shutter Technology
  • 200 Hz AMR
  • Reception: Analogue, DVB-T, DVB-C, DVB-C HD (H.264), DVB-S/S2, CI+, Hbb TV
  • Ports: 4 x HDMI, 1 x Scart, 2 x USB, LAN, composite input
  • stand, remote control, manual

The 963 is silver and is WLAN ready (dongle required) and the 868 is black. Apart from the colour, the WIFI, and the fact that the 963 is probably a newer model and user anput 25% less electricity (better energy rating) I cannot see much difference between the two, so please do not ask me. The 46 inch TV (46TL933G) does not have a DVB-S tuner!

ATTENTION:

IF YOU BUY THE 963 or the 933 one pair of 3D glasses is free! To get it scroll down to a bit stating "Hinweise und Aktionen" and then click on "Beides in den Einkaufswagen". Then go through the normal procedure. One step before confirmation you should see the price where it should say "promotion applied". This deal with the glasses might only be valid until the end of 31 July 2012 (in Germany) - this BONUS (free pair of glasses) has now EXPIRED. TVs are still available of course

If you want to know more, please use Google and Chrome when visiting the sites to translate them to English.

I can only put one link in the URL for the picture - I put both links above. So please do not come at me or neg me because of that. Keep in mind that all the people posting are just trying to help you score a bargain and invest their time to do that and so you do not have to.

    • same (vic)… but why now?

  • Confirmed.. Tvs cannot be shipped anymore, pretty pissed off. I wanted to buy one :(

    • yep & looks like its applied to all tvs not just these ones.

    • Shipping is back on!

  • Any way to track my order in English?

    • No, but it's easy to translate using Google translate. When did you order? Give it 5-7 days from your order and your order should arrive.

      • I ordered last night. Pretty excited, despite missing out on the 3d glasses.

    • Huh? You should get an email from Amazon with link to UPS tracking website all in english. At least I did…

      • The email is in German. I can see the estimated delivery date (6aug-18aug) though can't see a tracking/UPS link. Where abouts on the email is it?

        Thanks for your help :)

        • Just google translated it. It has been paid for but not shipped. Shipping is estimated to happen on 3rd aug. let's hope it isn't cancelled…

        • I dunno, when I open mine in Hotmail there's a automated english translation which says "click here to track your UPS package"…

          Probably a hotmail thing. I'm a bit worried though - my TV's in the US? Why'd they send it from Germany to US? no directly flights to AU I guess?

        • It's just the routing UPS use to get it to you based on what's available soonest.

          My vac came that route. It may mean a one day delay instead of if you'd been assigned a Euro/Asia route, but you'll still get it.

  • Shipping is on again!

  • Hey guys, I'm looking at getting the 46inch here: http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B007FMOQDI/ref=noref?ie=UTF8…

    Anyone know if the DVB-S2 will support the asian satellite tv? EG: TVB?

    • this tv could not be shipped to australia yet

      • crap…didn't check that.

  • has anyone found generic 3d glasses that work? or decent prices for genuine Toshiba 3d glasses?

  • TV arrived today…can't wait to check it out!

    • awesome, looking forward to hearing how it goes

      • Well, I don't have anything else to compare it to…but it kills my 3.5 year old Samsung LA46A550 5 series LCD…image quality is awesome. It probably isn't as nice as a Panasonic XXST50A, but for the price I paid this rapes all.

        Now I gotta figure out how to reassign all the channels :S

  • I'm in Newcastle. Seems to have stopped at botany. Who is the local contractor? Will probably have to pick it up from depo after work.

    • Not sure who the local contractor is…but I rang UPS Australia and they told me it was in the van being delivered even though the last scan was yesterday for Tullamarine…

      So I'm guessing it should be the same as you…Sydney Airport's at Botany Bay right?

      Call them and find out :)

      • Just called their number. Got off shore call centre who claims that all deliveries throughout australia get sent back to botany unless they're delivered. Surely this isn't true…

        • Well the girl I spoke to said the item will be returned the Tullamarine Airport if delivery could not be made…

          I dunno…did they tell you it was en route for delivery? what's your ETA for your tracking number?

        • ETA isn't 'til Thursday. Some phillipino lady didn't seem to know.

          surely ups express doesn't take 4 days to get to Newcastle from Sydney.

        • my ETA is the 9th, but its at a depot in Perth, 20kms from my residence. Apparently over the weekend its been to Germany, India, China, Singapore and now Perth.

        • Mine has had a busy weekend too. Germany, Philidelphia, Kentucky and Hawaii.

        • Yeah mine arrived in Melbourne on Sunday. My ETA was today so I guess it got delivered on time!

          If you really want it sooner you can probably call and ask to pick up? But I wouldn't…in case its damaged then you can blame UPS…

        • It's insane that it has travelled 1000s of KMs in 3 days and then it sits in Botany Bay for 2, possibly 5, days… go Australian efficiency.

        • Hey mate, I can't get any digital channels… you have any luck? I've changed region to/from Europe and still nothing?

        • have you tried changing it to country: other, and double check its doing a DTV scan
          I'm using a beyonwiz pvr so I haven't tried tuning myself.

        • Pretty sure they use Australian Air Express, just chuck the ref number UPS gave you into the AAE track and trace (as a reference not consignment). I was able to find some more info out via that. Despite being on the phone for an hour (most of it hold) on their useless customer service line for them to transfer me to Startrack saying they only deliver to airports. Then Startrack to transfer me back to AAE saying the consignment number i have was an AAE one. That company really needs to work out some synergy between their two offices.

          anyways heres the link, worth a try.

          http://trackandtrace.aae.com.au/

          In the end my tv supposedly should arrive tomorrow, however they won't deliver it to my house only to the local PO. So here's hoping it fits in the car. stupid courier companies.

        • Have you got your tv? Enjoy?

          Could you help me to find the original figures of service menu? Thanks,

        • Finally got it, kind of amusing it took 2 days longer to get from Adelaide to here.. 100 or so kms away than it took to get from Germany to Adelaide via Melbourne.

          Anyways PM sent, how do i get into the service menu and i'll try to get the info you need.

          and yeah I'm loving it.. of course its the first non CRT i've had that wasnt a pc monitor so I don't have much to compare it with but the picture is pretty damn nice.

  • Anyone tried the 3D function? I try to play h-sbs movies through HDMI in 3d but get weird sidebars that are not 3d

  • Got it!

    • Doesn't get any digital channels and only gets 8 analog ones… any ideas? No abc 4 kids, news 24, etc…

      • You must have mixed up a setting somewhere. Can you reset it and then try again? SBS is the only one that some TVs cannot get due to the frequency.
        I will post some general info on this shortly.

        This was posted on page one of this threat:

        Cluster on 31/07/2012 - 12:42 ¶
        That's right. I have a 933G with DVB-T. Europe uses 8Mhz for UHF while we use 7Mhz. SBS and 44 won't work at all with the Toshiba tuners. I will have a separate HDD based PVR anyway so I can always use the tuner in that anyway.

        There is no way to get Toshiba Europe TVs to tune 7Mhz UHF as far as I can see.

        • Thread I meant of course!

        • Still nothing. I can get analog fine but no digital tv. Nothing comes up in autoscan and I got to manual scan and I don't really know what to do there, though I followed the directions from the toshiba manual and nothing come up either.

          I'm not technologically incompetent in the slightest… I think I have a dud.

          Any ideas or a complete step by step walk through would be nothing short of amazing :)

        • If you think you have a dud e-mail Toshiba with the problem and see what they say. Everyone else seems to be fine (including myself) so maybe you are right. Shoot them an e-mail, they might be able to help you quickly. Or call them if it's free. Just tell them you recently returned from overseas with your TV and would like to know why you cannot get digital channels while your mates that have the same TV and model can. See what they say.

          Also check this thread and maybe e-mail the people who know how to do it.

  • My sister had the same problem. Just make sure you select country 'other' but more importantly, select 'antenna' NOW CABLE!! My sis selected cable (thinking, well, the antenna is a cable right….) but it didnt work. All good fro her now :)

    • Correct. I just set mine to "other" for country, "Antennae" not cable, and "DTV" not "ATV". Picked up all the channels except for SBS…loving this TV!

  • Can anyone with the 933 or 963 let me know how quickly it changes channels on free to air? Some german reviews say 3 seconds…

  • I would say 1-2 secs. It is faster then some tv's, but slower then others. Acceptable without being annoying :)

  • Just went to buy 933 and:

    Item: EUR 445.35
    Packaging & Shipping: EUR 161.76

    Total amount: EUR 607.11
    Invoice Total: AUD 736.35

    Has the price just gone up or am I doing something wrong?

    • Packaging & Shipping: EUR 161.76

      That looks a lot like they might have adjusted their shipping costs for that product.
      As When I bought mine it was EUR 40.

      Perhaps they finally worked out that they were losing a lot on shipping charges :-(

      • i just sent them an email asking wtf…

      • I tried to do the same. :( It's getting worse:

        Artikel: EUR 586,56
        Verpackung & Versand: EUR 228,02
        Vorauszahlung der Importgebühr: EUR 81,46


        Total: EUR 896,04

    Germany says nein!

    Dear Customer

    thank you for writing to Amazon.de.

    The shipping rate were changed recently. In many cases, the shipping are now lower than before. Unfortunately, in your case the opposite is true. I am really sorry about this. However, the new shipping rate are effectual.

    • Bummer, the good times are over. Glad I ordered mine when I did.

    All items where you can choose the shipping option "Internationale Express-Zustellung" 28.00 EUR, then 8.00 EUR PER KILO

    Probably safe to say TV's from amazon.de aren't all that cheap now.

  • no! the party is over, I hope my Toshiba last a good 5+ years

  • +1

    Might no one looks this, but 46TL933G price is EUR579 now, plus high shipping cost EUR228, at last EUR715, around AUD$850, still not bad deal.

    • hmm roughly around $870, really heart broken. This could have saved me heaps.

      I did put an order originally but they cancelled because of some credit card verification process and wanted me to re order … by that time the shipping went up.

      this price is still not bad, around $140 more than the original.

      • The TV is or was $836 delivered last time I checked (put it in a post last week). Still a pretty good price as compared to OZ. Of course not as much a bargain as before but still a bargain and still good savings.

        • was 736 delivered when I bought it….

  • Any one want the 46TL933? Mine arrived on 7/8/2012 but now I found it is too big for my bed room. It cost me around AU$800 with 2 pair of Toshiba glasses.

    • where you located? and is Amazon warranty transferable or something?

      • I am in Sydney, Auburn area. Better ask Amazon.de about the warranty(email them at their website and they reply within one day) but I can't see why the warranty won't continue. The warranty should come with the product I think, and I haven't registered the TV under my name yet.

        • well problem is I am in Melbourne … so I guess it's gonna cost a fortune on shipping to bring it down here…

        • Warranty is with the product. You just need to have the original proof of purchase.

    • I could definitely take it off your hands, im in sydney as well. I pm'ed you.

    If only the shipping charges could come down. C'mon Amazon.de, you can do better :)

    My only question, Is there any particular reason why everyone is after Toshiba TVs and not looking at other brands?

    • UPDATE: Just found out that the offer on 46inch version is because of a new line up of Toshiba TVs already launched (in UK atleast). Its called Toshiba 42VL963 and is currently the flagship model. This TV to my knowledge is not available on amazon.de as yet but I have found this review here:

      http://www.trustedreviews.com/toshiba-42vl963_TV_review_feat…

      Hope this helps!

    • Only a few brands can be shipped from Amazon - Toshiba is one of them.

  • Is the firmware upgrade for the 933G available yet? The one that allows Timeshift and recording?

  • Damn it, postage went up to 220euro now :( I need a new tv!!!

  • Two postage options now available.
    46" model with dongle and 2 pairs of glasses, delivered for less than $950

  • Late to the party here- trying to get the gist of it- did they put the postage up from zero to 220 euro? Seems a bit of a coincidence. As a result of orders made by Ozbargainers?
