Where should I buy an LCD HDTV?

Question

We are looking for the best deal we can find and don't mind buying a refurbished one.

What we want is:

40" or more

1080p

10,000:1 or more contrast ratio

In-home warranty (for at least a few years)

Answer 1

Outlet stores have the best deals, and will frequently provide an in-home warranty that is just as good as the manufacturer's (I also bought my washer and dryer there at a great price).

They get items that are overstocked, returned, or discontinued, and a reputable outlet store will list the precise reason that it's marked down.

Last week, I bought a 42" 1080p flat-panel LCD HDTV at an outlet store, an LG with a 15,000:1 contrast. Best Buy was selling them for $1500, but I got it (including an in-store special that week) for $650. They also threw in a TV stand and a six-disc CD player for free, and a two-year in-home warranty was only $100 extra.

Essentially an $1800 value for $750, less than half price. Now THAT'S a good deal.
