Not Telling

I have that Samsung 55in you mention and am very pleased with it.
I got a load of free 3D glasses with it and my PC will output the required signal. I also have a load of 3D material but after several attempts I cant say that I like viewing 3D very much. The effect is generally way over the top and cant be reduced with the TV settings (effectively), and the glasses make the screen much too dark for comfort.
So I am pleased because it does a good job with 2D HD material (as one would expect) and because it does a fantastic job with DVD playback over HDMI from my PC. This last really is stunningly good and nearly as good as HD. But the 3D is a bit of a non-starter as far as I'm concerned.
Sophon cable quality is still the worst analogue crap, of course. Hard to imagine that improving in my lifetime.
For me your loss would be the extra 10 inches, and them (plus the great SD picture quality) are certainly worth 30K as far as I'm concerned.

LG 2012 models (and probably 2011 models) have multiple 3D setting options. Think that LG passive 3D is better than Samsung's Active 3D .... if you turn the glasses 90 degrees they go black.
