I bought a 65C2 refurb from Microcenter last year about this time.

A few weeks into ownership, the main board died.

LG support was next to useless as there are no repair techs in my area, so in the end, LG ended up refunding me the cost of the TV.

I did some research online, watched a couple YouTube videos, and ended up swapping a new main board in by myself. Took about 20 minutes and a screwdriver, but was an easy process.

Still works perfectly now. So in the end, I paid about $100 for a 65C2.

If I had the chance to do it again, knowing how easy these TV's are to do, I'd 100% do it again.
The 90 day warranty kills it for me
The warranty issue is a big deal.

Hey, how can you tell how many hours are on your LG?
Go to Settings --> Support --> TV Information. Usage hours appear under Total Power On Time.

I bought the 77" yesterday, assembled it, the only 'issue' is that on the stand, its missing the steel cover to make it looks 'sexy'....other than that its in fine working condition as of right now. its annoying, but i my sound bar will cover it up so im not too worried about it.

Trying to figure out if the 77 C3 would be worth it refurbished or new from Greentoe.

Anyone know what's the accepted price for the 77 C3 on GT?

Oh man I would jump at the 55 if it was a bit cheaper
Wasn't this $800 at 55" that was the same price that I paid for my C1 in this situation 2 years ago. Unless you are looking for a better warranty for burn-in, this is about as good as it gets. As a windows users I've tried to be as gentle as a windows used can be. but i am pretty satisfied with how this worked out for me.

I'm wondering the same thing. I'm thinking about taking a gamble on it.
Bought a refurb 48CX from them when the C1s came out. No issues, game on it frequently. Paid $700, would buy this if I had use for it.

I bought the 55" last month. TV had 36 hours on it and was pretty much new. The stand was missing a cover plastic piece in the back, but it's not needed and you won't see it anyways if it's against a wall. I opted for the microcenter warranty that covers accidental damage for peace of mind. Overall happy with my purchase.

Good thing it only cost you over a grand for that look, it's the picture that counts, but in a month once you see a new in box for the same tv it will be a little more noticeable

I bought a LG 55" C1 "refurb" back in ' 22. Came in sealed OEM packaging, 0 watch hours, all accessories new/unopened. I registered it on LGs warranty page and they gave me a full year warranty. Still going strong, never had an issue and had the benefit of the LG warranty after the one with Micro Center expired even though I never needed it.

It's great that worked out so well for you. However, others have not had your luck. I live an hour's drive from the nearest Micro Center, so it's not worth the risk for me. I'll wait for the next deal.

Thanks.
Now that the C4 is launched, we should see many retailers accepting lower prices soon.

Curious if these come with the 1-year LG warranty as well. I recently purchased an open-box LG monitor from MicroCenter that had power issues. LG support stated that technically the warranty associated with the serial number was expired. However, after providing a valid purchase receipt, I was still able to get it fixed for free.

Interesting. Did your receipt say "open box" or anything like that on it?

No, their open-box and some refurbished items say "CLEARANCE MARKDOWN" on the purchase receipt. I'd be interested to know exactly where/who refurbished these TVs. Likely they are either used/returned units that they acquired from some other retailer, or returned/exchanged units from MC that were defective and then repaired by MC or some other (probably local) 3rd party repair shop.

For example, the "refurbished" Apple Watch Series 6 I recently purchased from MC was actually just a used watch from PCS Wireless.

Has anyone had good luck with these refurb oled purchases from Microcenter?

Just got one with the 3 years screen protection just in case. Panel has 150hrs and seems good so far in. I'll update if anything changes.
