Samsung 59" 600Hz 1080p 3D Plasma scam?

Nov 21, 2011 10:04AM PST

This was listed by CNET as a great deal at US Appliance.

Could not get Samsung 59" 600Hz 1080p 3D Plasma HD Television, model no. PN59D550 to come up when i clicked on the link at the US Appliance website, nor could i add to my cart and purchase.

is this just a scam to get traffic to their site? or is their website broken?

Or could they not be selling it?

Products can come and go. When they sell out, they are out?

anything is possible

but the item is listed on the page. it's just when you click to view/buy it, it takes you back to their home screen.

they got front page promotion from CNET for a product that you cannot buy.

not coincidence in my book.

Sorry I can't find it. Next step? Use the phone to the company and ask what's up.
