How LONG do LCD TV's Last????

Question

i am about to buy a 30" LCD TV from Gateway in an estate sale for 225, the price is definitely low for that kind of tv. The auctioneers say the tv is approx. 6 yrs old but works perfectly. SO if its already 6 years old how much more life can I expect out of it???

thanks!!!!!! is Gateway brand any good as well?

Answer 1

Is the Gateway good? NO!

Should I buy a 6 yr. old Gateway? NO!

Continued life expectancy could be anywhere form seconds to years, perhaps as many as another 6 years, but not worth the chance. Too expensive to fix.
