Sony Bravia LCD/Blu-ray Combo: $850 (free delivery)

February 1, 2010 8:00pm by Barry Ritholtz

The TV in the bedroom — the one we got as a wedding present 17 years ago — started giving out a month or two ago. Its now in its final death throes. We should really put her out of her misery, and put her down . . . Its the humane thing to do.

This gave me an excuse to upgrade to a decent size flattie. Left to my own devices, I can go a little over the top. The bosslady makes me keep it modest and and reasonably priced.

I stumbled across this combo on Amazon (it was also on sale at J&R) — and it fit what we needed perfectly:

Sony Bravia V-Series KDL-40V5100 40-Inch 1080p LCD Flat Panel HDTV & Sony BDP-N460 Blu-ray Disc Player Bundle

Total price: $853.00 + including free shipping

I thought that was a good deal for a bedroom set (where I prefer not to watch hi-def movies or sports). I’ll move the Blue-ray player to the den, where it will keep company with one of my favorite toys, and I’ll use the regular DVD in the bedroom.

I ordered the Sony combo last night . . .
