Default BRAG: Went Crazy with Stars FPPs

50 inch Toshiba plasma TV

24 inch Samsung Monitor

not to mention the 26" plasma, Ipod Nano, Digital Camera, and Books that I purchased last summer...

Despite Lee hating me and not letting me win real money, he still lets me win in some way, form, or shape at least...


ship it...

dude sorry to rain on your parade but as far as i can tell that 50 inch plasma is a huge ripoff. They sell for like $1600 or something at best buy and cost far more than $1600 worth of fpps.

I got 2 decks of plastic cards. I was not impressed. They feel like slabs of plastic.

I just looked in the vpp store at NL soldier is absolutely right, the Toshiba 50 plasma is 140k fpps and is worth about 1600. Whereas you can get a $1000 Neiman marcus gift card for 60k points and a $1500 cash for 100k points. This doesnt add up. I just emailed them to update the model for the tv, I suggest others to do the same pllzz

Yeah, I was looking at this. You can just get CASH (which is highly unlikely to be the best value) of $1500 for 100K FPP, right? And that's pretty close to enough to buy this TV which costs an extra 40K FPPs. Seems like the TV sucks from a value perspective. But what's good??? [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
