This is actually a pretty good deal. There are only three manufacturers that make panels this size: Sharp, LG and Samsung so you’re getting a top tier panel with a crappy name brand on the front.
I took a chance on a Coby 19" LCD earlier this year. Figured I would take a chance for a hundred bucks. It died, won’t power on, 95 days into a 90 day warranty.
Buyer beware on big $$$ off-brand purchases… No chance I would buy Coby again.
Geez - wish I could buy three, too! Anyway, seems like a fairly good deal. If I was really in the market for a 3D TV, I’d go for it. Still, don’t like the 120Hz refresh rate. I want a minimum of 240Hz for a 3D TV, but would prefer higher than 400Hz.
I hope Woot has a Cash Grab on 12/26 when I have Christmas money to spend…
We are talking real Slooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. I have been waiting all day for the Altec Lansing ear plugs, the golf club and the darn toaster to go and I now feel the three will outlive me and possibly my grandchildren.
Now tomorrow, I will be away from a computer almost all day so I am sure there will be a Woot off then.
OH, did I mention lamps? geesh, that too. So, so boring. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The brand name “Coby” was a marketing decision for this electronics company. They chose that name because it is similar to Sony. I’ve known people that actually bought a Coby product because they didn’t pay attention and thought it was Sony.
That is exactly the type of person they are marketing toward. Those that don’t pay attention. I used to work in retail and I’ve seen countless crappy products put out by this brand. Avoid Coby.
Then get a plasma or something . . . (they’re 600 Hz)
Really, what use could someone have for a 480 Hz refresh rate? I have the feeling you fell for marketing hype, hard.
