    Hi Friends,

    Even i suggest to buy thereitself.

    Because recently my sister family thought of sending LCD TV through my brother who came here for office trip to their inlaws. But after thinking of the customs in chennai and how our suitcase willbe handled during shifting they dropped it.

    They ordered in chennai itself in show room, it was some 28 or 30" Samsung with other accessories was 34k itseems. Recently my parents even got thereitself Sonybrand, but i guess they got in gray market(Burma Bazaar), so price was little less compare to showroom.

    Dad had many genuine friends in Burma Bazaar so he was able to get goodone ,orelse buying in gray market is sometimes risky.But showroom is best, as you get warranty and customer service.

    She is not sending it in a suitcase...just inlieu of a suitcase...

    Most TVs bought in US won't work in India due to the difference in Video standards (US --NTSC (30 frames with 525 scan lines) /(India--PAL (25/625)) --as per DH)

    I think it is better to buy in India itself,as TVs manufactured in Japan are widely available in the Indian market as against the substandard Chinese ones in US.

    If you still want to ship one,take the cargo route...
