My worry is that my articulating mount has brackets for the old plasma and LED and I had to tweak the attachment of the bracket when I upsized to 55 inch at 300x200 VESA. This one says 300x300 to maybe it will fit better than 300x200. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Also, there was a remark about the 144Hz gaming - that language was somehow included in the OLED description despite the fact that it states "our miniLED with HC processor can" - if it is not part of the OLED features why cut and paste it from the miniLED page?
Anyway - should be a significant upgrade over C8PUA and I will post any gotchas in the thread after I unbox it. I think we can be OK with FireTV as long as our TV apps can be loaded - I already have an external box for DirecTV stream with Android OS so I doubt I'd want to grab an Onn or similar and never see the TV OS. I have an antenna feed via coax and on the LG those OTA channels look AWESOME - better than the HDR output of the DirecTV box. I loved my Panasonic plasma back in the day so I am fond of the idea of trying their brand again.
Thanks!

Under $1k at Sams and you have 5yr warranty. The LG partner store is a great deal but the wanting your cake and eating it too is the hold up, not the lack of available deals. Woot even has the S90D for $1k. just to name a few, plus these aren't even as cheap as you can get them for. The C4 65" at the partner store is right at $1000 AT and CB and you do have a 14 day return window. This Z85 deal for example is $727 AFTER tax with C1 + CC CB and I'm sure someone could outdo me on that. Seems pretty standard if you want a truly slick deal you have to jump through some hoops.

Yeah but if you trace back the comments the OP was insinuating they were finding a C4 for this Z85 price. Certainly ymmv if so, and even your finds for $1000 which we all knew about are also ymmv, just not as niche, as Sam's not only requires a membership but also only certain stores have them (none around me do) and the LG partner store is the same, need certain access to buy from there.
Also FYI C1 screws people over on CB constantly where I won't bother with them. Constantly changing it to invalid after some of these short return windows are over. Maybe hasn't happened to you yet but has to many of us.

NVM - box dimensions are corrected. Don't know how to take TV out without damaging this outer package - hope there is no need to return
