Plasma televisions aren't cheap but there are many units out there that are being sold at discounted prices.  If you'd like to take advantage of slashed down prices, here are some of the sources you can use to look for discount plasma TVs:

Discount stores

Discount stores such as Costco, Tesco, Best Buy and Asda are some of the best places to find discounted plasma TVs.  A warning, though: most of the brands you'll find here aren't the top brands.  If you don't mind paying for products made by generic brands, you certainly won't mind going this route.

Although you've probably never encountered any of the brands before (do Maxent, Kreisen, Syntax Olevia and Vizio ring a bell?), with a little research, there's a high likelihood that you'll give one of these manufacturers a chance – especially once you've seen the tag prices on their products.

Refurbished units

Another great source of discount plasma flat panel televisions are retailers and manufacturers who sell refurbished units.  Re-furbs are mostly brand new units that have undergone some minor repairs and refinishing before getting repacked and sold as such.  If you've been pining for a unit but don't have £1,500 to spend, you'll be glad to know that discounted plasma TVs sold as re-furbs can only set you back by about £600 or even less.

On-line sites and discount on-line stores

Ever since plasma TVs exploded in the market several years ago, there hasn't been a lack in on-line sources for discounted units.  You could use these sites as references if you wish to compare prices for certain models.  Just make sure to read the description of the items so you can protect yourself from any unreliable sellers or less-than-desirable units.
