I have to take that back. Prices are still close to twice as much as in the US since prices are falling there as well, and in the US you know if you are getting a refurbished model.
Search Results for 32 inch lcd tv at TigerDirect.com
Where do you see Plaza Lama prices online. Did search and went to plazalama.com and nothing.
Go to Plaza Lama's facebook page.
The prices here have come down while shipping is still $500.
You REALLY need to know what you are buying!
Many of the "LCD" TVs sold here are older models that do not have the picture definition, or "refresh rate" of those now being sold in the USA.
Prices ARE lower, but still nowhere near prices, or quality, of "First World Countries".
AND, as was mentioned already, they are sometimes "Re-Furbished" units.
That, it itself is not a major drawback, but is not reflected by a lower price.
"LED" units, with "Full High Definition" are still very over priced.
"Buyer Beware"!....and, "EDUCATED"!

I got a really good deal at La Sirena almost a year ago for a 32 inch sony bravia flatscreen, 17.5k pesos more or less, it was the same exact price as buying the US counterpart online.. it was for some sale they were having with 20% off all electronics.
I don't think its that much.... my last shipment in Sept was $750 for a tanque, 40"LED TV, Weed Whacker, stereo and many other things.
Tanque plus 6/7 items......... all for $750.... I complained and he pointed to all my electronics.... + coffee maker, car repair parts.
Awilda was the shipper
you are, as usual, right on point. try buying some laptops here. write the model number down, then do a google. sometimes you find that it is some model that was discontinued 5 years ago. you cannot even buy it in the States, only in places like Guatemala. second thing is that they never tell you if you are getting new, or refurbished. i am aware that refurbished sometimes can be every bit as good as new, but tell me the truth , and do not charge me for a new unit.
100 % correct. And to add, stay away from Plaza Lama, they are the biggest contributor to the above post.
Yesterday, after I fought over my wife's passion for Korean drama and my son's hot dog chants wanting to see Mickey's Playhouse. I gave up and watched the NYG-WAS game over Slingbox. I am talking to my wife about getting new TV for master bedroom. I am kicking myself now for not bringing LED TV like many have suggested.
why is shipping so much? is it the taxes??? Is it insurance??? The new generation LED screens are feather weight, so it's not the weight.
I am sure it is the duty. When I asked casually to EncargoPaq about bringing in TV's they said it was a major hassle with customs.
Shipping prices are from where to where and door to door?
The prices I received it didn't make sense to ship as in the end the final cost was the same. I understand you take a gamble of possibly getting refurbished but you also take a chance shipping a TV which will not be under any guarantee.
I just purchased an LG 42LS3400 basic LED TV. I could have bought the TV from Amazon for $500 plus let's just say $500 shipping from NYC area. I paid a little under $1,000 here and after opening the box and checking my serial number with LG I did indeed purchase a new TV and not refurbished. I didn't have to wait three weeks for delivery so I was pleased with my purchase here.
