Buy or Wait?

[charlotte49er]

I plan on moving out of my dinky apartment into a town home within the next 4-6 months.

I know that you don't want to make any purchases while they are looking at your credit.

Here's my question:

Right now just about everyone has 52"-60" HDTV's on sale for around $1300 + Free shipping! I really want one. Should I go ahead and buy it now before they run my credit, or wait 8-10 months down the road and see if they are the same price or cheaper?

just becareful. prices go down all the time. When buying a house they will run your credit only once or twice depending on who u get the funding from. As long as ure credit is pretty good, an inquiry wont be that big of a deal tho.

Good point. I'm not financing a TV, I will pay cash, so that it won't effect my credit score. Of course, sometimes it's better to finance then pay it off fast. But since it's so close, I rather just pay and be done with it.

$700-$800 of is really tempting right now.

Are you asking about buying a townhouse or a TV?

Are you a first time home-buyer?

just buy the tv

[CarolinaKid704]

Yeah, just buy the friggin TV. 46' LEDs after christmas were 1500. So they keep gettin cheaper as time goes. There will always be sales now that 3D TVs are coming into play.

My bro is actually in the same boat as you though since you see the price drop almost month to month.
