Let me explain how they refurbish TV.

A customer buys a TV and discovers it has bad DSE, blooming, banding (oled) and returns it to the store.

The store sends it back

Someone at the return center inspects it for cracks and checks to see if it turns on,

Then they get a 22 year old college kid to pack it up in the box.

Then it is sold online.

If you think they have a 200K TV engineer to replace the panel or electronics...you are fooling yourself.

Refurbished TV are rejected TV. Period. Just like buying a refurbished projector..same thing.

Now, if you bought a Canon refurbished SLR camera it will be pure mint condition. In fact so mint it looks new. That is with Canon directly. I always do that since I get a new SLR for the price of refurbished. Or I bought a refurbished bissell steam carpet cleaner from bissell. Now you think you might see some left over hairs on the roller brush or dirt in the tank. No way. The unit was so clean I could drink beer out of the receiving dirty water tank. The roller brush was so new I could lick the bristles.

But a TV...same goes for open box at Best Buy. No thanks

Walmart use to be big on selling refurbished TV. The reviews of the condition of the tv was horrible.

This is my view. You work hard all your life. Get the TV you really want. You waste your money spending 50-70 bucks on drinks for a girl that wont go home with you or split a $500 bottle of vodka for table service. Or spend 30 bucks on HDMI cable at best buy you can get on amazon for 3 bucks.

Based on my research a 65 inch oled tv of this vintage goes for around $1200-1300. Good deal if this is what you're looking for, however this model is getting on 3 years old now... It's about what I would expect to pay for a used tv. And also who did the refurbishing?

It doesn't seem to come with any warranty (even though its refurbished)...seems risky for a 2018. OLED prices are estimated to come down over the next year or two thanks to miniLED and other competition.

Yep plus Vizio just released their 2020 OLED tv too. Of course just like plasma, and LED the prices will come down but it may take a while... Currently though this is a fair price for what you're getting

It looks like a 90 day warranty from what I see

That'd make sense, as most refurbs are 90 days. Does anyone know, can you add 2 yrs warranty onto this w a costco credit card?

There are so many things right about this deal that I can almost ignore all the things wrong with it.

Almost...

Not sure where the confusion is. It clearly says 90 warranty under the description. Is there somewhere else on the page that says no warranty?

Item Description:
OLED TV 8 million pixels
X1 Extreme processor, 4K X-Reality PRO
4K HDR, HDR10, HLG, Dolby Vision
Sony's Acoustic Surface
TRILUMINOS Display
4K HDR Super Bit Mapping
Vertical one slate design
90 Day Warranty

No, you're correct. 90 days, which is pretty standard for a refurb.

The VISIO OLED tvs are not good and people should stay way from them. They been having many problem since they have been coming out.

Costco credit card will extend 2 years warranty only if the product is NEW
