whew. after lurking the forums for quite a while, naka pili narin ako which 32" lcd to buy.
before i was choosing between pana 32c10x2 or lg 32lh20. upon finding out na cheaper (may nabasa ako dito na pwedeng 20k cash or 22k 12mos to pay) and lower wattage ang panasonic, then i was decided on getting it.
i went to western trinoma. kita ko agad un pana 32c10x2. priced at 22,900 12mos to pay. i asked kung pwede 20k cash. papa approved pa daw muna. (which later on na approved.) and i also asked kung sagad na un 22,900 installment, coz i thought 22k lang. inapprove din na 22K then 12mos to pay. sabi ko cge pahanda mo nalang un lcd. pag uuwi na ako babalik ako to pay credit card.
so i went out the store, napa daan ako sa ansons. pumasok ako. kita ko 21,900k 12mos to pay. so mas mura ng 100 pesos agad w/out haggling. tinanong ko pano kung cash? 21k daw.(weird?) btw, the salesman sa ansons was not too much entertaining me. basta isang tanong. isang sagot lang.(which i like, rather than those sales man na kahit sinabi mo na titingin tingin ka lang eh hindi ka tinitigilan sa sales talk).
so i went out the store, told my wife about it. she said bilhin ko na daw para maya pag balik naten, pickup unit agad.
i went back in. look for the salesman(marlon). and told him to get a unit for me. sabi ko i'll use my credit card. then he quickly blurted out na sige po bigay ko nalang ng 21k! (whaw! ok ah) i gave him my credit card and my id. tapos sabi ko baka pwede pa babaan? sabi nya titignan daw nya. off he went to check my card.
pag balik nya sabi ok na daw un credit card. then i asked again (2x time to ask) kung pwede pa babaan. icip cya cguro mga 5 secs. sabi nya "umm sige bigay ko 20,500k"(alright! pero bigla ako napa isip, baka akala nya straight charge not installment.) so clinarify ko "20.5k in 12mos?" he said "yes."
there you go. i got panasonic th l32c10x2 for php20,500, 12mos to pay. from ansons trinoma. free delivery hanggang parking lot. haha.
* OT. i bought my lcd few days back lang. but i still read these forums. i found out again na binebenta na ang LG 32lf20 (full HD) for only 22k cash. parang nanghinayang ako kasi kakabili ko lang nitong panasonic HD ready only. (their difference are the number of pixels tama diba?) pero inicip ko ulet, 720 or 1080 won't make a difference on 32" lcd. and hindi ako maselan sobra. as long as i could play my xbox360 and play mkv files to view Hi Def quality movies is my goal already. and for only php1,708 a month, magaan sa bulsa sobra. Good buy indeed!
