Buying TV locally will be better option as you can bargain You can easily get Samsung 32EH5000 for 31-32k try different dealers.
If every thing fails try flipkart.

Yes it is safe to buy online.
Apart from that do try some other shops/showrooms, as it is easily available for 31-32k in local market as well as online.

I don’t think so is there any issue or any problem to buy LED tv through online shopping. 2 months back when my cousin brother in Dehradun decided to buy a new tv then he never thought that it was possible through online, until I convinced him. His mind was stuck with LG 32LM6200 but when i check out the price from their official site it showed as 51 k which was above his budget. Then i checked out online shopping site like flipkart and snapdeal and found there was a price difference. Eventually I got this tv for him at 42k without any extra charges.

So, i would suggest you to go and check out the deals of tv in flipkart, snapdeal and other such reputed online sites. They are quite genuine and give you new and packed products at a discounted price.

How can a user trust an unknown site especially when the buyer is going to invest a big amount on buying a high end product like 3D LED TV be it from Samsung, LG or any other company. I think firstly you need to find out the genuineness of the site. Check out users review about the delivery of the products and only then go for the online shopping.

Well, There are a lot of good genuine sites here in India from which you can get any product. I agree that getting a TV is slight different than getting any other product as you are spending a lot of amount on getting the TV.
You can choose site like Flipkat, Ebay or Naaptol which provide 100% genuine products.

I haven't heard any good reviews about Naaptol.
Anyone in TDF here, purchased anything from Naaptol?

As far as getting the same product for a cheaper price, I think, most of the times, it's a good option to buy online, sans, the waiting with anxiety.
If you're gonna buy the product from online marketplaces like Ebay, or Naaptol, or Shopclues, etc., then there are a few things you need to carefully look at:
1. The Warranty/Return Policy: This is very common on Ebay that sellers import the products from abroad and sell off here in India at somewhat lower prices. Though this seems to be a good deal considering the price difference between local stores and the online store. You need to check out the type of warranty that comes with the product, you're about to purchase. You need to have a Manufacturer's Warranty, and also carefully check the duration of the warranty as well as the type of warranty. On, ebay for example, an LED TV selling locally for 42,000, may be selling for as low as 36,000, with a clause (1 Year Dealers Warranty), instead of a 1 year manufacturer's warranty, and IMO, in all possibilities, a manufacturer's warranty will be much better than a dealer's warranty.
2. The Bill: The bill (VAT Paid Bill), in most cases, will help you, claim warranty services, in an unfortunate case of your device goes bad. So, make sure that you're getting a VAT Paid bill with your device.
3. Item Condition: Also, check the item condition (in case you're purchasing it from Ebay).
So, IMO, its a good deal as long as you're getting a brand new item with a manufacturer's warranty and a VAT Paid Bill.
As, gearbox has suggested, if you can't be sure of the seller's/site's reputation, try Cash On Delivery wherever possible.
I've tried Naaptol and for that particular purchase, my feedback is to be 100%.

In such a case, you can always search for that site's online reviews. There are sites like mouthshut.com, but you can't always base your opinion on such sites with user generated content and reviews and in case of any doubts, you can always opt for COD (atleast your money is safe till the time you receive the product.

As a rule of thumb, always try to get a product with manufacturer warranty. There's a very simple reason for this: if it is broken, you can bring it to any repair center in the country to get it fixed. However, not all products come with a manufacturer warranty, and a dealer warranty is your only option. If this is the case, then if your product is broken, you must ship it back to the seller/dealer to get it serviced. If you do not live close to the where you purchased the product, it can create a big hassle -- especially if it's a large item such as a TV. With a manufacturer warranty, if it is a large item such as refrigerators or a TV, they will send a repairman to your house instead.
I hope this answers your question!

I had a small question.
Flipkart sells the LG 3D Tv at a much cheaper price than what it is quoted at the LG India Website. How they manage to do so?
Are the Tv's available online are the same as getting them offline or there are some difference in terms of specs and feature.

The prices listed on the official LG site are simply MRP, or maximum retail price. This means that a dealer should not sell the TV for more than that listed price. This number is merely used as a gauge to see general ballpark range a dealer should sell his products.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!

oh, Thanks for the info.
So it's like that we know the maximum price we have to pay for a TV but there is no definite minimum price.
It depends on one negotiation skills.

Thanks, LGWRSherlock for explaining the thing quite elaborately.
If you opt for a dealer warranty, you'll have to bear all costs of transporting the product to the dealer and back. That will definitely create problem if the dealer is in some other city or state; even if the dealer is in your state or city you'll still have the headache of transporting the product to avail the warranty, which will add to the costs. Moreover, dealers might not be authorized (that means that the dealer may be incompatible) to carry on repairs on your product, and there's a possibility that he might use cheap, local components for the repairs.

You are very welcome (although you already did most of the work with your own post!)!
Yes, you are correct! Of course, since you don't know how much the dealer actually paid for the TV, you have no idea how low you can actually go, but I have seen some people buy a TV 15,000 Rs. below the MRP!

You can purchase from online, because online sites cost is less then showrooms cast and warranty is not matter, you will get warranty from both side. this time is not more different between online shopping and window shopping.
