Hi PNG/K...yes the 60" SonyNoBaloney, while still our tv, has been overcome by the ubiquitous green cast so prevalent in those models. A light engine/optical block repair is ~ $grand and takes a few weeks. So, we have been searching though not up against the wall as we have almost gotten used to the 'Algae Vision' Sony; still razor sharp, but like viewing from 6 feet under a frog pond,

Not a member of Costco, (neighbor is), but they have a surprisingly very small 'selection' of 65 and 70 inch top line sets, from my perusal. That, and they have camo'd/renumbered cat numbers on the few items in my interest range: even harder for comparo.

Looking at 65 or 70, Sammie or Sharp respectively, both LED/LCD, though I don't give a fook about 3 fooking D.

For the FL Starter Shack...

Yes, some kind of 'warranty', though reading through them makes the BMW CPO 'warranty' feel like a bullet proof vest by comparo; the TV policies suck. We had a 3rd party warr on the Sony, for 5 years, but it started going toes up a few weeks ago, going into its 8th 'season'. Natch...

Shoppers nightmare, and the few brick & mortar joints are not very helpful with pitch dark viewing rooms, sound jacked louder than movie theaters, and sales punques that can't spell white balance.
