So few alternatives for TVs, or even appliances (fit in, condo)

And if you buy a Sony for instance (who make the best TVs), they offer a 5-year warranty + another year if you use their Costco credit card. If you buy it at Costco.com, they deliver too.

For a TV and a retail location, my 1st choice would be Costco, my 2nd Costco as well as my 3rd choice. It's a no-brainer. Also, if you buy a TV online and they have an incredible price, google that company name followed by the word "scam". See what comes up. Saying that, sometimes BB is irrational and they don't mind losing hundreds of dollars on a transaction!? When they clear out a model or brand, you can score a great deal. But normally, BB is expensive.

I always check Costco 1st. Other than those people who are selling things on your way out the door. If you want to get screwed, I would highly recommend getting a price with the water softener, blind person, etc.

And Costco has their free concierge support.

I think we are overlooking the fact that (based on the many threads she's started) the OP may live in some type of parallel universe or could be stuck in a time warp.

I'm not sure what you are talking about?

Back on topic: I saw a beautiful used TV for sale on a Scottsdale outdoor back patio that had amazing dried fruit snacks so I bought an extra box for a gift. After that, I went over to the Toasted Mallow for dessert and enjoyed it with a super cheap cup of coffee. I learned that my barista at Discount Coffee (home of the $0.49 cup) also hustles as a house cleaner AND a $14 an hour handyman.

Those Vizios at Walmart are pretty darn good. Parents is 10 yo.. better than my last Sony or Toshiba. They did get stiffed by the YouTube upgrade, though, like many others. No longer works on the older smart tvs.

It's all in fun. I must admit, I've always wondered if Pink Jazz's mom is Voebe.

I'm going to disagree on the Vizio. Had one in my office and one in the kids playroom and both had to be replaced due to poor quality. I like Sony OLED personally.

For on line options try:

Crutchfield

Tiger Direct

I have purchased equipment from both...Crutchfield for over 30 years.
