Buying a TV

The info is so confusing--I think I've narrowed it down to a 46" LED flat panel without CD--we don't watch CD movies; we're not going to watch CD TV.  But then there's Internet ready (?).  Even trying to get the best price--you have to know the exact model for comparison, and then different stores different model number where the differences between the models isn't clear.  What's the difference between the Samsung 46" LED 6300 vs 6500 (that warrants a $200 price difference).   The 6500 has something called "2010 Internet content service".  What is that?  I don't think the store I went to--Belmont TV--had the 6500, just the 6300.  And the guy there told me plasmas don't come in sizes under 50", which turns out not to be true.  But then the Big Screen TV store doesn't post prices on line like Belmont and HHGreg do, so I can't price compare with them.  And then there are the armoires--not one but two.  We never imagined they wold become obsolete.  I tried to sell them at Upscale Resale, but they emailed me with this message:   "Unfortunately, we cannot accept this item for consignment.  As much as we would like to be of service, this style of furniture just doesn’t sell well in this environment."  Translation, which I gleaned from reviewing a bund of articles from 2008 about what to do with obsolete TV armoires:  no one will buy these dinosaurs--it will cost us more to pick them up and display them than we'll get from resale.

So we're keeping the armoires--we'll continue to use the one in the basement for our (old style) TV, and move the one from the family room to our basement yoga/workout room.  How we'll get it down there is another story--we'll have to take it out the front door (won't go down curved basement steps) and through the garage into the basement.  That reminds me--I'll check to see if RentalWorks rents furniture dollies--that might help.  I've cleaned out both armoires and moved all the game systems to the armoire downstairs (to my son's chagrin, even though he hasn't touched them in years).  Hence the dust and the wheezing and sneezing.  But I can't move the armoire by myself, or I would.  I'll just store a bunch of stuff in it that's currently lying on the basement floor--games and legos.

This (before Christmas) is supposed to be a good time of year to buy a TV, or I wouldn't be pursing this. Prices are supposed to go up some time after the first of the year.  So much easier if I could do all of this myself...but everything's too heavy.
