What do you think of Panasonic TH-42PA20?

P_LO13 · May 21, 2007

I know the Panny TH-42PA20 is kind of old from couple years ago, but a friend of mine is selling it for $1300 (asking price), what do you guys think of the TV? Is it still worth it...or better get something else?

I'm currently looking for a TV under $1500, possibility with only standard cable, but might upgrade to HD soon.

Thanks everyone

I predict you'll be able to pick up the current 42PX75U for around $1500 by fall, or boxing day at the latest. IMO $1300's a lot for a 2-year-old plasma.

Your friend is trying to rip you off.

You lose alot of the advantages of the newer plasmas by getting the PA20 (it's not just about SD vs HD, it's also panel quality - the key player.)

The PA20 is older, repairs and parts are far more expensive. I'd wait a few weeks, save up the extra $400 or so, and get a brand new TH42PX75 w/ full warranty and nice new panel.

PS - The price is too high but your friend did pay alot more for that set than you would for a better set today.
