wonder if the free 4k blu ray of the martian will be included in all samsung player boxes. or just the early ones? i want to wait for it to come down in price but i also want the martian included..

Martian blu ray is only £20. The first price drop of this player will be to £399. Still cheaper to buy them separately if you wait (even Martian will drop in price by then).

i guess, but the martian is a fox release and not available to pre-order anywhere still! worrying..hope it comes out soon as that was one of my day 1 purchases. i might get this player at £400 but still feels like a ripoff at that price..but who knows how long i would be waiting for a £350 price.

I reckon this player will drop to £250 - £300 by Christmas.

We will probably get the Panasonic first then.

NEED ADVICE !!!!!

You may or may not know that my panasonic blu-ray player arrived in the 17th april but without the two free blu-ray films, i have complained about it and currys have phoned me and said that they will collect it on tuesday and once they have recieved it they will send a new one out, not sure if i'm being a bit funny but i have to box it up and be without a blu-ray player for a few days which i'm not happy about for the sake of two missing films that i already own on standard blu-ray.

Do i a) box it up and send it back for a replacement or b) cut my losses and keep the blu-ray player. (not sure what to do as i already have these discs).

I would send it back and buy the Samsung 8500 from BestAVdeals.com for £400 - I am on the waiting list for one. Get The Martian free. They are both the same.

Speak to Currys and ask them for a straight swap. Take it to the shop yourself. You can sell the discs on as new.

I have been doing a rawing trade on AV Forums selling my ultra hd 4k blu rays.
