    We've pretty much hit a point where non HDMI 2.1 TVs are cheap and worth getting in larger sizes for the entry point.

    But those HDMI 2.1 TVs man...I want the OLEDs so bad but I can't justify it just yet.

    It's more expensive (brother in law used employee discount) and the geek squad warranty covers burn in (costco doesn't). $1,820 out the door with 5 yr warranty.

    So with Costco Visa I thought TVs were 7 year warranty plus 2 to 3% cash back and you can just walk in and return it at any time for any reason because Costco is stupid.

    Come to think of it I think that certain brands are excluded though, I remember I could have purchased an ultra wide monitor and used it for a few years and returned it for full price.

    In another year or so, I'm going for the 77 OLED. They're finally coming down to a somewhat reasonable price. I have the 65 OLEd now and don't regret getting it one bit.

    The return period is 90ndays. Can be extended by concierge for extenuating circumstances, but def not by years. The extended warranty isn't administered by Costco. The terms of that warranty exclude burn-in. And you aren't going to get burn-in in the first 90 days.

    The best buy warranty is really good, that's why they're so damn expensive.

    Must be brand specific then I know you can bring back a used couch and get a full refund as well on several electronics and things. LG may be
    excluded along with Sony or something.

    There is a big Reddit thread about a monitor that one sale that you can return anytime within like 5 to 10 years for full refund used because of their stupid amazing policies. Monitors just might not count as TV so they don't fall under the same policy.

    So I love my 70 and while I want another I now have it mounted above my fireplace and I'm convinced I would be happier with a 55 to 65 which is what I'll get when I replace it.

    The 70s like 3" from the ceiling lol, has to be really high due to the facade and mantle.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    My Costco is the one that made the news last year because a lady was able to return a dead Xmas tree in January.

    Now my Costco doesn’t sell Xmas trees.

    Their policies are dumb, and you can probably return it.
