    Just keep it real on your response about the TV much much appreciated. ...
    Honest, for the price its a great set, I have no complainants at all and like I said the 4 year warranty is a nice touch. I play my xbox one S and the games with HDR look great and the up scaling is well done. Cant speak on the what the pro would look like on it, but I cant imagine it not looking good. Its 4k with HDR support so I think you will be happy. TV watching has been great, honest I could have returned it to best buy if I didn't like it, but I really love the 55".

      Did they do a firmware update? Because I read that HDR could not be achieved through the HDMI but only through USB.

              Holy ****!

              This is one of the best offers yet. I'm stacking multiple $100+ orders right now, and they're all deducing!

                Stupid question. Do you have to use a Visa card? Is it $25 per $100?

                  I think you have to use a Visa card.

                  I just placed four separate orders that were $100+ (before tax), and they all discounted.

                  (Was this going on during all of Black Friday? Son of a... which I could go back to some older orders when they were being discounted!)

                  This promotion ends at Best Buy on 12/25.

                      Did this just start today? This almost makes me want to get the Samsung 4k bluray player that is 199 right now and comes with a $10 gift card. With the $25 after tax the players comes out to about 188 and with getting the $10 in gift card it is like paying 178. I wanted to wait to get a 4k player once they start getting down to 100-150. Do you think the player will get any cheaper this year? I would like to get this $25 thing but I don't really have much to buy at the moment and it does not work one preorders or I would just do that.

                        Ok so I just looked and it does work with preorders. I put Horizon collections edition into a cart just to see and when I get into the check out part it comes up to 77.48 after tax and it normally cost 120 before the gamers club. So after gamers club it would cost $96 plus tax yet it ended up at only 77.48. I still am not sure if I am going to really be able to use this because I am not really playing on getting the collection edition for this just the regular one. I am almost thinking about getting ride of my TLG collections edition per order I put in a few days ago and redoing it so I could at least use this 25 thing once before it ends.

                          It works on pre-orders. I used it on TLG, Don't Breathe, Suicide Squad, and Jason Bourne.

                          You said that something came out at $77.48, and that it didn't apply? That seems to have worked to me.

                            IIRC, it started Saturday. Didn't read about it until today (Sunday)

                            Paid about $75 for a Chromecast 2nd gen , Last Air Bender 3D blu , Star Trek Beyond 4K, Flight of the Butterflies 4K/3D , Divergent 4K , Insurgent 4K
                            stacked the Visa Checkout Promo with the "Save $20 when buying 3 4K UHD blu rays" promo

                            My total before checking out was like $96.XX so my Visa Checkout discount was $24.24
                            Didn't wanna waste 5 minutes trying to find a filler to save 76 cents

                              Dang. I could've saved probably $50 or $75.

                                I ended up buying the LG I mentioned above for my girlfriend (and like 20% for myself). She will be extra happy because the dumb leg design will make it not fit on her TV stand so she'll want to build a new one and dump the $20 Ikea.

                                I also learned that Visio is releasing TVs without an actual remote? They make your download an app, that's insane.
