It has been some time since Vizio p-series was available. When will they be in stock?

Good Afternoon Neil,

Thank you for your interest in Vizio’s P series!

I took a peek on BestBuy.com, and it looks like we’re only carrying Vizio’s D, E, and M series. The only P series TVs that are currently listed appears to be a clearance TV. If you have a particular item you’re really interested you can use IFTTT to set an alert to let you once it’s back in stock if it's a not clearance item.

Kindly,

I am also interested in the new 2017 Vizio P Series (P75-E1, P65-E1 or P55-E1).  The 2017 Models are denoted by the -E1 rather than -C1 as was the case for the 2016 Models.

The 2017 Vizio P Series were announced via email from Vizio as available for purchase back on June 8, 2017, but I have been waiting for availability from my local Best Buy as I would prefer to purchase it that way versus via mail order.

Will Best Buy eventually (soon, I hope) be carrying the Vizio P Series?

Good Morning friends,

I was hoping to have a more concrete answer for you at this point. It doesn’t appear that we’ve started to carrythis year’s P series yet. I understand that can be concerning!

I’ve reached out to our business partners here at our corporate office to seek clarification if we will. If, and when I get a reply I’d be happy to follow up with you.

Repsectfully,

[crmuni]

Grateful for the assist Mariah. We will keep an eye out for your follow-up on the matter.

So frustrating!  The 2017 Vizio P-Series has been shipping for some time.  You can even buy them from Sam's Club.  So why can't (won't?) BestBuy get them?  

When I contacted BestBuy corporate, I was told that the P-Series in not available yet.  But when I spoke to someone at Vizio corporate, they told me that BestBuy hasn't ordered any.  Something tells me that either: 1) BestBuy wants them but Vizio won't send them any; or 2) BestBuy doesn't want them.  

BestBuy, if you're listening. . . There are countless people who are interested in purchasing this particular TV and want to buy it from you.  Please do everyone a favor and tell us what'e really going on.

Hi Friends!

Thank you for all reaching out about Vizio’s P series 2017 line-up! I haven’t received an answer on this matter yet from our business teams. If they do become available, or an update is available I’d be happy to share it with you as soon I as hear something.

I really appreciate your patience on this matter!

Kindly,

Any news from corporate on whether Best Buy is taking a pass on the 2017 Vizio P Series (P75-E1, P65-E1 or P55-E1)?  The balance between loyalty and patience is tiresome.  There have been several inquiries here as well as several phone calls made locally and to corporate.  An agreement between Vizio and Best Buy for 2017 is either still being actively pursued or has been tabled for the year.  Can anyone help by providing some degree of clarity on which it is?

Hello,

I'm wondering if there are any updates as to why Best Buy isn't stocking any of the 2017 Vizio P-Series? I've got my sights set on a P65-E1, but the scarcity of any P-Series on the Best Buy site is really irritating.

I’ve got $400 in best buy gift cards that I’ve been waiting for 4 months to put toward a VIZIO P-50. Failing that, I’d hoped to put it toward a Dell 3GHz laptop. It’s very disappointing that BestBuy seems to be cutting back on stock of top-end products. I hope this is not the beginning of bad times for BestBuy.
