I just go to costco and shop on size and price. They don't seem to carry any junk.


Do be aware that the sleazier stores often steer you to the TV's they want you to buy, the ones that make them the most profit.
They do this by messing with the colour, brightness and contrast controls. They also may mess with the sound but not as often.
If a TV you liked in another store looks washed out in the next for sure they have messed with the controls.

Costco has Haier TV's, bought the girl one for her room, great picture, but very poor sound. She runs it through her ghettoblaster for better sound.
She has a $200 TV with a with a 5 year warranty, she's happy and I'm happy with the price.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
