Reviews seem very poor. Just saying.

Just got this player, and watched Top Gun and Days of Thunder. No problems so far, looked FANTASTIC!

Tega Cay, SC Walmart had it for this price and had a ton of them.

Just picked one up at 98$, chicagoland area, along with lord of war and reservoir dogs for 10$ each

Friend of mine got one at St. Charles store in Missouri last night

I tried clicking both links and neither seem to work. I also tried putting in the model number and that does not work either. Can anyone provide a working link? Thanks. Would not mind a sub $100 blu-ray for the bedroom.

I picked one up in Vestal, NY last night. That had about 10 left on the shelf.

This is the link I used to look at it, but it lists it at $168.

picked up one myself, watched the Bolt. No problems so far. But does anybody know if the player decodes all the audio codecs?

 

[Vulcan2422]

Thinking of picking one up just cause I want a cheap blu-ray with good upconverting. As long as it upconverts nicely (like my Toshiba HD-A2 actually does nicely but that's IMHO) with the HDMI and the pictures look awesome I'm sold. I saw the Wal-mart had a CRAP load of them today actually. Crap load is like more than 50 on a pallet lol.

 

[jro787]

so is this worth a buy

 

[bill123]

unfortunately they were 168 by me so definitely YMMV.

 

[jro787]

ok but is it worth it lol is it a good one

 

[Mako1215]

I think I saw tons of these at my WM

 

[two tyma]

Bought one last week. Plays every movie from old to new that I've put in it. The picture quality is pretty good, the sound is okay. Dvd upconversion is not really that impressive.

 

[Mako1215]

About to buy one for when I get my tv soon. There's 3 at one of the wal-marts near me so i might bite.

 

[Penguin1084]

manville nj had a boatload of them for $98. I would like a blu ray player, but I think i'll hold out for a cheaper ps3 in the years to come.

They're in South St. Louis County as well for that price, but you really have to make a decision between quality and price.

 

[Mako1215]

Huge end cap of these at my WM. I'm deciding to save my $$$ and buy the 1000W rms Samsung system they have.

 

[riddler]

anyone find any around socal?

 

[lawdood]

Found some for $98 at my local Walmart in the Sacramento area. Picked one up for my parents, who don't need a 2.0 player, and tested it out. Played my True Blood Season 1 BD with no problems.

Seems like a great deal for the price.
