Deal Details
AAFES has the LG 65" CX OLED on sale for $1849 for eligible patrons, and this is a TAX FREE purchase. Pulled this trigger this morning and will be picking it up at my local AAFES PX later today.

I had already ordered the Amazon deal from 2 days ago which came out to about $1920 for me after sales tax.... This beats that deal given no sales tax at AAFES. I canceled my Amazon order.

This is still not good as Target were I got the 65" inch LG CX ror $1,519.99 with 20% circle one item coupon and red card. Even with tax that is still $200 savings over this deal if you don't have to pay it.
How do you get the 20% coupon?

Makes me wonder if the Costco deal is better even after tax (also if you are an executive member with Costco Visa 4% back) because they include the $100 Hulu gift card and 3 year Allstate protection ($100). Can't decide if I should buy here or Costco.... first world problems obviously.

Just imagine if the CX dropped to $1700 retail and you had to pay tax, you'd probably be close to $1850 mark 😁

Btw, lowest C9 went to was $2100 according to camel. Lowest CX discount window is probably April/May, and you'd be able to price match this if it drops within 30 days.
Historically lg TVs drop to lowest price in June before the November / BF drop btw.

If you need a major repair such as board replacement or non panel replacement the insurance will offer 3 non oled TVs to choose from for a swap/replacement if the repairs get too expensive.

If you take the cash instead they will deduct all labor and parts prices from the initial tv value and pay out remaining plan value.

Not sure how that is a good deal if you need to use the warranty. However, Lg will replace the panel but that service call labor will deduct from warranty value per online comments on people who have had warranty claims.

The people who bought oleds are upset since each of the three replacement choices aren't the same quality as the tv they purchased. I think the best tv they were offered was a q80, but research it yourself, maybe I misunderstood.

Example: Tv purchase price 1700
Year 2 repair - board (350 labor (3 service calls and parts of 400 for the board).
Year 3 another board fails (2 service calls). They offer you a swap of a non oled tv or cash you out 1700-350-400-200=800-100 insurance plan cost=700 dollars cash value remaining/settlement on your insurance plan for you to buy a new tv. Of course labor will be much higher if you live in the middle of nowhere or need repeat visits (wrong parts/etc.)

Most people won't have these issues, but if you do I don't see how the insurance is any good versus getting full tv paid amount as gift card from geek squad.

OLEDs perform much better in a dark room. If you put it in a living room with a lot of windows, you'll want to get blackout curtains.

Everyone who said TV sales would go on during superbowl were full of it. Reference point during BF best deals historically speaking. Unless its a extreme YMMV brick and mortar.

I typically have found BF deals to be a red herring. Like you said, they are a good reference point, but rarely the lowest of the year. For example, the 55" CX was $1199.99 from AAFES back in January: https://slickdeals.net/f/14789068-lg-cx-55-oled-1199-military-only

Edit: Speculating on why, but the new LG OLEDs were announce at CES in early January, and the new ones are rolling out now. The new 55" C1 (OLED55C1PUB) is available now, and the premium 55" (OLED55G1PUA) hits in April.

I blame the alchol lol. Or to warn potential buyers what they are in for?

I actually almost bought this TV on a Black Friday deal from Amazon and it was better than this military only deal with the cashback (somewhere around $1600 for the 65). Would have been good in a darker/theater room for movies. I waited too long and missed the deal so was checking this one out and it's pretty good but not good enough.

I've been waiting for an AAFES drop. $1700 is my sweet spot for the 65". The temptation is strong.
Pull the freaking trigger and quit talking about it. "Sweet spot" lol. You are going to wait numerous months, if ever, for it to reach $1700. What's the point? It's a measly $150 you are debating over. You could be enjoying the TV this whole time, but no, gotta hit that sweet spot.

Just buy the TV soon. You'll be glad you did and you can quit coming here and talking about itSmilie
