For everyone else; thanks for your opinions. I was upgrading from a 27" tube TV on a budget and for the value, this is a great quality TV for me. I was in the market for a mid-range one and it fits that bill perfectly. I actually got it for $200 so for me it was a steal.
For this guy:
I found it new for under 400, so you can do the math.
if you like it great, but don't ask my opinion and think you are all high and mighty because you already made up your mind.
LCD and vizio are the two main reasons I wouldn't buy it. the $$ just makes it very objective decision.
you bought what I consider a crap display. I wouldn't buy it for $50, but simple minds, simple pleasures. enjoy
1. I posted a $400 new price. The TV was posted at $240, which new based off of my posted Amazon price, would have been $160 savings. How the hell was I supposed to know you found it somewhere else cheaper and therefore saved more than $150 (you sure you included tax too?) I am a math major and can do math just fine; maybe you shouldn't assume I knew your hidden source.
2. I wasn't acting high and mighty, nor did I make a decision before asking your opinion. You didn't even properly respond until the next day, which was too late for the deal.
3. I see you are a TV enthusiast, so for you the quality/price doesn't justify it, and that iss fine.
4. I respect your opinion, and just wanted an honest reason as to why you felt that way. But, with your "simple minds, simple pleasures" comment (ironic that you called me high and mighty), I lost all respect I previously had. I deeply apologize for presenting my simple mind and 3rd world TV in your presence.
