I have been trying to sell this on Craigslist and some other places for several weeks. No luck. This needs to be sold and picked up asap since I do not want my brother to be using it anymore. He does not deserve it. This set is currently in his room since I filled mine with more aquariums.
The original retail price paid was $1,200. The asking prices were $800, $700, $600, and now $550. I can deliver locally in the metro. Final price is $550, which is way below current value.
I have a very nice big screen TV as stated in the title above. The production date stamped May 2007, so this machine is about 3 years old. I've tried to look up for the specs and here it is. The model # is 50PL9126D/37 and I think it is also 50PL9126D/37B with the firmware/software upgrade. The upgrade is still available online. I don't know how to upgrade the TV, but I don't know what the upgrade is for. Maybe new features.
This TV comes with a stand with glass shelf. I did not use this TV very much, such as occasional movies and emergency weather coverages. The reason for selling is because, I moved back in with my mother and I elected to have more aquariums in my room. The TV is in another room and ready for pick up. I have spent about $1,200 and considering the fairly new conditions and not used much, I will not go any more lower than current price of $550. That is a huge difference from the initial $800.
Cash only.

Pixel Plus
Pixel Plus is a digital picture processing technology that increases the number of lines and the number of pixels. The result is razor sharp pictures with incredible detail and depth, every time from any source.
HDTV
HDTV delivers exceptional picture quality and real movie-viewing experience that makes television more dynamic, truer than anything you've seen before. It is the latest and best television signal available. It features picture quality more than twice that of traditional analog broadcasts. In order to effectively maximize the HDTV signal, a television must incorporate advanced signal input connectivity and circuitry design.
3D Combfilter
The 3D comb filter separates brightness and color signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-color, cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion - all of which detract from your viewing pleasure. The 3D digital comb filter performs field-by-field comparisons of the television image to accurately separate the color from the black-and-white information and remove both horizontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl. The result is a razor sharp image.
Dolby Digital Surround
Because Dolby Digital and DTS, the world's leading digital multi-channel audio standards, make use of the way the human ear naturally processes sound, you experience superb quality surround sound audio with realistic spatial cues.
Widescreen movie modes
Enhance your viewing experience with Widescreen movie modes, which lets you choose the screen format from various options. View your movie the way it is meant to be.
HDMI input
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analog signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.

I have uploaded the picture found online and 3 of my own pictures. I understand that wide screen with black bars on top and bottom will confuse people. It depends on how you set the TV and/or the DVR cable box. It also depend on the camera a show/movie is filmed in. You can edit to show default resolution or to fit the screen. Most people already know how to work with wide screen.
