In the other post, Buckeyefan1 said "LG is supposedly dropping production of LCD sets this year after losing millions."
It was $579.99 last week and $549.99 yesterday (2/10/2020). Who know if this TV might be less than $400 next week at this price decreasing trend.
You can always request a price adjustment at Costco or return within 90 days and buy a cheaper one.

I'm tempted to get the 65R625 but it's $250 more.
LCD is a color changing layer, LED is (currently) a solid white backlight. LCDs don't produce their own light, and nobody can make colored LEDs small and tightly packed enough to make a consumer-sized TV with a decent resolution
An LED is a Light Emitting Diode. It's what creates the light you see on your TV. LCD is short for a liquid crystal display. It's the kind of display we've all been used to for the last years. This would be comparable to older tech like plasma, and in the old days, CRT (Cathode Ray Tubes). Before LCD TVs were backlit by LEDs, they were backlit by CFL (compact florescent light.) That's why LCD TVs used to be so much thicker like 10 or more years ago. I hope that makes sense.
TL;DR LCD TVs typically make their light with LEDs.
