Last time I was in Miami I went into Best Buy. They had a mountain of Samsung 37" LCD TV's going for $299!
At that price I thought, what the heck. I checked it in with AA in it's original box and wondered if I'd ever see it again, or at least in one piece.
I found it carefully placed in the baggage hall of POP airport and I was politely waved over customs. i showed them my receipt and they charged me RD$5,000. They only issue was that wanted cash and in pesos. Luckily the ATM at the airport was working.
Got the TV home, unboxed it, plugged it in and it works beautifully!
All in all, a good deal for me.
