Sony Wega Received: Free Flat Screens Proves To Be True
Posted by Andru Edwards

When the free iPods site became known, many were quick to write it off as a scam, even after proof was presented to show otherwise. Soon after, the free flatscreens promotion started, and again people cried foul. Well, to all the doubters (along with the hopefuls), Gear Live brings you proof of the validity of this promotion. Click for more.
So my freeflatscreens.com account had been in a "Pending" status since 7/19. On 7/26 it finally changed to a "Shipped" status. I expected the unit to arrive in about a week or two - however, this showed up today:

This package arrived today via DHL. The driver recruited my wife to carry the box up the stairs, since apparently, DHL doesn't believe in handtrucks.

Another view of the box, shipping label and J&R Music World catalogue attached.

This is the invoice from the box. As you can see, it shipped from Maspeth, NY. It was billed to an Amazon Payments account, and shipped to me direct. The invoice shows the Sony KV-27FS120 costs 379.99 plus $82.96 shipping and insurance - a total of $462.95, and I didn't pay a cent.

A view of the open box, brand new TV inside along with the remote.

Out of the box, and unwrapped - a brand new Sony Wega 27" Trinitron Flatscreen TV.
If you want to get in on the action and pick up a free flatscreen monitor or TV yourself, check out the Gear Live Boards to grab some referals.

Hey did the tv arrive ok? by the looks of it they send it with the original box which you should never do! You always put the original box inside a bigger box!
Well was it beat up? or did it arrive ok??
Thanks! I just completed my referals so i have to wait 2 days for it to approve..

Yeah good point, Chris. Despite all the insurance and whatnot, did the TV arrive in good shape?

I would have to disagree with shipping inside another box. Have you ever picked up a 27” Wega? Those f*&%ers are heavy! According to bestbuy.com they’re 99.5 lbs. Try to find a box that can hold that much weight without breaking, then try to pick it up with a Wega in it. You’ll definitely drop it since it’s so front-heavy. Ship mine without a second box! Or ship me a monkey! (Just not one with herpes)

Hi everyone, I have also created a site dedicated to all those free electronics sites and I need help. I am trying to establish my site on the net and was wondering what is most effective in getting referrals, referral link trades, gmail invites, or “post your link on my site for a day” type thing? Any help would be appreciated. Also, does anyone have suggestions on how to optimize my site’s ranking (please look at it first, cause I have already done a lot)? I have only been indexed by MSN search so far.
Thanks, clois

Ok, so I have always thought that these free give away, trial, or whatever sites were a scam but the other day my roommate actually recieved a $1300 amazon gift card for a tv, because it was out of stock and we ended up with a better tv and a Xbox 360. So i’m trying this site out and have read a bunch of good reviews on it. Its for a 26in samsung or Panasonic LCD HD tv. All you do on this one is sign up for 1 offer ( i chose blockbuster online for 9.95 a month) and you can cancel it if you want, then all i need after that is 8 referrals of people to just sign up for one thing and then you can do the referral thing too. If your interested just go to http://flatscreens.freepay.com/?r=39243172
It will help me out and then you can do the same thing
and the site my roommate used was www.shopfreepay.com but you have to sign up for several different offers
