    Is that Prime members only? I couldn't find that one.

    Oh maybe, yeah I do have prime

    Also only $1300 for the 55 inch, not too bad. Still happy with the $1099 deal I got on my 55 inch C2 a few months ago tho

    My surplus store didnt have the C3 anymore (no surprise), but they did have a bunch of Samsung S90Cs. Picked up a 65” for just about $1200 after tax. Hard to beat that.

    I’d sworn off Samsung for the most part, but the price was too good to pass up and this thing is gorgeous. Insanely bright, too. The QD-OLED hype is legitimate.

    I randomly decided to look at this again and realized the door was stuck in the port! I used a knife to get it out (got hit in the face in the process) and now it works!

    When it comes to obscure, curved TVs are out, transparent TVs are in.

    That new transparent tv looked pretty cool. Eyes would definitely have to adjust

    Isn’t the transparent tv for specialized use cases and not necessarily for watching tv? More for decor?

    Is green toe trustworthy? 42 inch LG C3 for only $849 right now. Guessing they don't have some sort of protection plan like Best Buy would, though?

    They're just a middle-man. You'll get the TV delivered from a legitimate, authorized retailer. It's just a way for those sites to sell below LG's protected pricing without being revealed. BuyDig is one of their big sellers. You'd have to go third-party for a warranty, but, no issues otherwise.

    Just a heads up, though: a lot of people have been having success scoring the 42" C2 for $500 from Best Buy in stores by asking an employee to place an order for them. They're sold out online, but stores have access to some in warehouses. You have to order in store, but then they're shipped to you directly. YMMV, of course, but if you have a location real close, I'd say it's definitely worth the shot!
