I am not a TV expert, I don't care to go to another thread. I know that many of you know what you are talking about. Plain and simple... I don't.

I am looking at (probably) a 32-37" LED TV. Is there a better option out there for my price? Probably looking under $500.


1) I know that I should have done this during black Friday, to get a better deal.
2) I know that I suck.
3) I know that I'm gay.
4) /ETFail
5) I'll go f*ck myself.

A tv that size just go with something cheap. We have a 26" Insignia LCD in our bedroom that has a built-in dvd player. It's 720p but has a decent picture and we've had no issues with it. You shouldn't need to come close to $500 for a tv that small.

You can get a good 42" Panasonic Plasma for around $500. Just an FYI.

You guys are missing an opportunity to rip him off.

ETB I have a TV with the specs you're looking for, I suppose since you're an OCer I could be swayed to give it away for $500. PM me for the details.

Do you want a personal check, or would you like me to send you my bank account card, so you can just have the money wired?

Just tell me everything you need, and I probably just scan it and put it on this thread.

Don't bother with scanning the check, it would just bounce.

Depends on your setup (e.g., room lighting).

IMO, yes.

Not necessarily.

For example, the Panasonic VIERA TC-P50S30, which is a 50" plasma, uses $21/year at 5 hours per day.
