My only advice is don't take Best Buy at their word. I found a x950g set last year listed as "Open Box - Excellent." I got to the store. Not only was there NO STAND and NO REMOTE (floor model), but there was an 8" long gash across the display, about 1/2" wide, very noticable. Yeah... Excellent condition.

@@BTheInstallerI followed your advice and bought a open box JBL 9.1 sound bar from Amazon a couple weeks back with a 90 days warranty for a very good discount from his regular price and everything was in perfect shape. At first it was a nightmare since I live in Puerto Rico and they refuse to ship the package outside the US, but I get lucky and send the package to a friend who lives in Orlando Fla that was coming to PR and he brought me the package along with his luggage. I am very pleased with the sound bar but as soon I can save some more funds I am going to sell it to buy the new Sony HT-A9 sorround system to used it along my new 2021 Samsung AU 8000 65” TV after seeing your great and honest review about this product vs the other top of the line Sonos arc with the sub gen 3 and SL ones rear speakers 👍😊

I have just one story about returning a TV to Best Buy. I always try to be absolutely scrupulous about returning any new product by making sure it is in totally pristine condition and EVERYTHING that was originally included with the product -- down to the last little twistie -- is still intact. The staff at Best Buy inspected my return and seemed reluctant to accept the TV until after they had verified that every screw was present, counting them one by one. I don't know if all Best Buy stores are this meticulous about returns, but it taught me that if I purchase a product from them I need to be confident it will be a "keeper" because it might not pass the stringent scrutiny of their return process.

Bought an open box once and when I got it home it had a clear impact on the panel. I hiked it back to the store immediately and they gave me a hassle and didn't want to take the return. The manager of the best buy said they would only make this exception once - OKaay - hopefully won't have to return this defective product again. So I would say that if its in the box, get it out and test it or get assurance they will take it back if there is any defect.

But I got a great deal and I’ve owned it since June and haven’t had any problems, besides the stand not being included, I made one quick phone call to LG service parts and they shipped the base stand to me for free.

I found an open box and I asked the salesman to look at the TV. He said that it was ordered online and returned. It still had the plastic covering the TV and had the remote with unused batteries and manual. She purchased it for $178. When she tried to pay for it a higher price came up on their screen so the manger gave her an additional discount to $178. We got back to her house and I set it up for her cable and streaming channels and it worked fine. No problems.

TV store owner here, we sale a lot of "refurbished" products, most of the "refurbishing" is just testing. So while you claim they're often sent back and refurbished for defects, that is simply not true. There is nothing to really repair these days, you should know that. A lot of the Best Buy open box TVs you are suggesting are in fact never tested and can yield pretty crappy outcomes, and there is far more grey area in what the particular product has experienced thus far. Not to mention, we stomp their open box "deals" all day man. Other than that, I actually love your suggestion of rtings, we use that a lot for customers to even better understand the real value of their buy.

Open box TV deals seem to be a lot more compelling in the US. Here in Canada, open box incentives are generally in the same ballpark as sale prices, so there really isn't much point taking any risks for marginal savings. Refurbished units are even more iffy because the warranty coverage is often reduced and returned stock is frequently offloaded to third party resellers to get rid of them. Deals can definitely be found but follow your plan.

I recently found a 77” A80J OLED as an “open box” at my local Best Buy. Actually didn’t have a box at all. My experience was the complete opposite of everything you said. They didn’t know any history at all, wouldn’t allow it to be turned on at all (per management). Also they won’t deliver open box items so I’d have to figure that part out. It was listed as “certified excellent” which means it’s in perfect condition. I pointed out a large scratch on the back corner of the unit which they told me should have disqualified it from the certified excellent rating they gave it. They would barely discount it so it was only $200 less than the $3k sale price of a brand new unit. I was also told by one associate that this unit wouldn’t come with a manufacturer warranty, while another said it would be covered by Sony’s warranty. At the end of the day I absolutely bought a brand new one with free delivery.

At home I looked in the service menue and saw, the Sony runs in the store 700 hours in brilliant picture mode. This was over four month, 6days a week over 7 hours a day. I returned the panel and bought a new one for only 200€ more. Afterwards the dealer reduce the price to 4939€. I asked him to reduce my payed prize and so he gave me 340€ back. I like this fair dealer. The prize from the used one (5000€) was much too high, only worth about 4300-4500€. My Tipp, check the hours of a used panel.

I sit 16ft away from my tv now so gotta see what will work better. I absolutely can't wait until this hisense h9g is gone. Ever since the last update the tv just isn't the same... PLUS go big or go home 😆

599.99 lg c1 48 inch oled. Asked the home theater associates if this was a correct price I’ve seen them before for 899 and up. Mentioned yes, took home and come to realize. The last owners took stand out looked inside and said it was to small and returned to store never took it out. I consider it the come up of last year in December

I bought my Emotiva 5 channel Amp (UPA-5) as B-Stock direct from Emotiva for 30% off many (many) years ago. One of the best purchases I've made for my home theater. 2nd would be my left/right floorstanding speakers from Mirage......got them as a closeout, buy 1 get 1 free. Can't pass up a deal son, lol.

I got a $500 stroller for like 240 or 260 can’t remember exactly but yea it was crazy crazy good deal and simply cause the box was taped up instead of stapled like normal. Amazon warehouse man we haven’t paid full price for a single thing for our kids or anything really between bargain hunt, open box on Best Buy, Amazon warehouse. Dirt cheap. TJ max. Electronic express warehouse. There are so so many places for deals there is no reason to buy stuff full priced unless it’s just something your dying to get and don’t care to pay for full price.

Do check the Tv for parts before you leave the store. I have seen the deception on the tag include things that the open box Tv didnt have in the box For buying a replacement stand and remote..Ebay is your best friend

Some big authorized sellers selling open box prob from returns they received, but they claim there’s no manufacturers warranty on them since they open box which makes no sense since TVs were just originally sold 2 months ago

In 2011, I found a open box 42 in LG 1080p at Best Buy. It was a floor model with nearly 3000 hours of use. Spent a couple of hundred dollars ($200) on it. It is still working right now, some 11 years later. In 1998 I bought a new Trinitron CRT that stopped working in 2007. Moving to another Sony this year, the 85 inch X85J 4K 120hz LED. This one i brought new by price matching with Amazon, saving roughly $250 I put towards a mount and BB Total tech warranty. Even though my experience with LG TVs was fantastic one rotten experience with one of their fridges ruined the entire brand for me. Despite this, I do know that they make great panels that last. Just not compressors that do. Make fantastic panels

About 6-7 years ago, I wanted a 3-D TV. So, I was walking into a Best Buy just looking at my options. On the floor was a 65" Vizio 3D-TV, Open Box. No one knew why it was returned, but there was no box. I took it for the full price, but wanted the extended warranty for free, for 3 years. I got the TV home, and it died the next day, Day Three, Best Buy had a brand new machine, at my house. I sold it, it still had the extended warranty, and 3d-TV were no longer available.

Unrelated, but has anyone been affected by TCL pulling their Google TV units from Best Buy? Lots of great reviews but lots of issues as well. If you're sitting on the fence, now would be a good time to send one packing. This situation could end up becoming a lemon law debacle and definitely won't help the tier 2 QLED manufacturers.

Got the Sony X950H 55 inch for 448$ it was either returned to the store by a customer or a display tv in the store. Amazing tv, no visible DSE, Amazing colours and brightness. Some blooming, but that's almost to be expected. It came without the box tho, but i just couldn't pass it up for that price.

I don’t know. It’s just me. I can’t see myself saving 10 percent on a big investment that a tv should last you long time. Plus I love Best Buy’s 5 year warranty. I don’t think they will allow us to put that warranty on a open box product.

LG 48C1, it’s listed as opened box never used and it costs $500 on offer up, the same seller has probably hundreds of tvs listed as opens box but I’m a bit skeptical even though he has 10 “5 star reviews”.
