Most likely only you got it. Even if I saw it at that price brand new, I'm not sure I would have gotten it. Not really good value. Rather just get an OLED TV or use my 49" Ultra ultra widescreen. Not OLED, and IPS, but the benefit outweights the benefit of OLED 27".

Good value is dependent on what you're looking for. The OLED TVs cap at 120Hz, not 240. Having moved from an Odyssey G7 27" to a LG C1 48" as my primary display for gaming, OLED hands-down looks so much better for games, especially for ones that have heavily contrasting areas. While the Odyssey is a VA panel, prior to that I was using a LG 34GK950F-B (IPS) which was still inferior to the C1 for gaming.

Nice deal, probably just local
Don't know if I'd go down from 42" C2 to 27" though

Yeah, I love my OLED TV. I go from a cheap TLC to my LG C1 and it's amazing every time. VA is terrible, but IPS is pretty much good enough that I'll take it if there are some additional benefit like ultra ultra wide.

For me once you go past 120Hz, it's not that big of a difference, but for some I get it. Especially if you are into competitive play.
