For everyone who keeps questioning the warranty information:

The boxes in the warehouse have an additional packet of warranty information attached to the boxes. (At least they do here locally.)

So even though the box is printed with a 3-year warranty on it, the additional information explains the extension of the 3 year warranty to 5 years.

(And yes, if you use the Costco Visa credit card, that tacks on an additional 2 years, making it 7 years total.)

Hope this helps clarify things a bit...

Sony's pushing it as part of their "PS5 Ready" series and is actually one of the few TV's capable of gaming 4K at 120 Frames...however this tv will not do it out the box until a firmware update Sony has yet to push. It's assumed they'll do it closer to PS5 launch Source: https://www.techradar.com/news/sony-ps5-ready-tv

I mean you bought this way back in July. So you've enjoyed this TV for about 2 months while others patiently waited. Maybe just go to Costco and see if they will price adjust without all the hassles of returning. Cause you returning will just cause your TV to get sent back to Sony and they will then have to sell it as refurbished and then reship it somewhere else to sell. The carbon footprint of all this is huge.

Pick up in store tomorrow morning or ship and save $58 dollars in tax? I know the SD answer is to save $58 but I'm a bit worried about shipping issues or damage that could occur. Never had a TV shipped before...
I mean it had to be shipped to the store too...

I noticed Costco just upped the warranty from 3 years to 5 years on both 55 inch and 65 inch. Question- how does one go about obtaining warranty service at Costco in the event it fails within 5 years?

Product page was changed to state 5 years yesterday but still has 3 I believe until tomorrow's sale. The details have 3 listed if you go further down. Service is through Sony (manufacturer). Check out their site:

Ha, true. My assumption would be they are on a pallet and shipped differently from Sony to the store than they would be from a warehouse to my home.

Possibly, but who knows if one way could cause more damage than the other. Two of my family members have had 80+ inch TVs shipped to them from Costco lately and didn't have any issues. Just some food for thought.

If you get it shipped you don't pay taxes?

Having a really hard trying to decide between this 65" tv and their 75" LG UN8570 also on sale for $849. There are no reviews for the tv on rtings so I'm really hoping you guy can give me an idea of how it compares to this Sony. I would be using it for about 40% video gaming and 60% Netflix/Hulu/YouTube

Any advice is appreciated, thank you!
If you can wait a few days, RTINGS finished their UN8570 tests yesterday, so the review should be available late this week or early next week. If you have insider access you can see the preliminary test results now. Unfortunately I don't have access.

Because I don't live in the city limits Costco collects the state tax of 4% when they ship and not the total 9.5%. So basically I save 5.5% by having it delivered, which is $53 and not the $58 I had in my other post. I'm in Alabama and our sales tax is ridiculous!

Quote from Maxed_CreditCards :
The fact that Sony built the 950G and 950H both equipped with HDMI 2.1 hardware but won't deploy the firmware update to activate its features says it all. I'm not even convinced this 900H will be getting the update in time for the November console launch, if ever. Either they're having problems with the firmware or are just plain greedy forcing folks to purchase next year models that will most likely come with 2.1 ports activated out of box. They pulled this shit with Dolby Vision a few years back, similar scenario
Pretty sure it has to do with the release of Android 11, and not much on Sony's side.

Does anyone know for sure how Costco ships the TV if you order online? Is it from their distribution center directly to your home or they take the inventory from the nearest warehouse to your home?

Two scenarios:

1 – Sony > Costco Distribution Center > Costco Warehouse > Your home

2 - Sony > Costco Distribution Center > Your home

If it's the second case, you might be safer getting the TV that way rather than at the warehouse where more hands touching it (including you and your buddy trying to shove the big 65 inch TV onto the back of the truck/SUV).

I just tried and was able to add it to my cart. It was at the $1370 though since this sale doesn't go live until tomorrow.

I chatted with Costco today and they told me my order will have a 5 year Sony warranty, ordered on September 25th . If you used a Costco visa it adds and additional 2 years.

Tip: TVs should always be transported standing upright to avoid screen damage. Laying the TV flat while transporting can cause screen excessive stress on the screen, especially if traveling on a rough road.
