Anyone bought one of these? They seem like a good deal, but only getting a 90 day warranty with one makes me wary. I mean if they're only willing to stand behind a product for 90 days, even thought its supposed to be "as good as new", I wonder if I'll hit 120 days and end up with a paperweight. At the same time though, if anything was going to go wrong wouldn't it happen within 90 days? Do you think its worth the $100-$150 i could save on a $700 lcd? 6/25/2007 1:35:05 PM |

Just spend for new.
You are much less likely to be fucked thanks to the longer warranty.

You're better off buying tv's with cosmetic damage than recertified tv's. The discount is larger and you pretty much know what's was wrong with it when you get it. A Cracked speaker panel can get you 70% off and sometimes you can get them with the full original warranty. 6/27/2007 6:12:54 PM |

yeah, i wouldnt want to get a 700$ LCD TV that was refurbished with only a 90 day warranty. these things are too finicky. anything can go wrong with them. its not like a computer where you crack it open and swap boards out. 6/28/2007 3:29:15 AM |
