A TV used to cost a few weeks pay and now you can get a TV for the equivalent of a few hours pay. There just isn't much of a market for a $3000+ TV.
Few usually means 3-5 or so, a half decent TV would be at least half a grand. That's rather high hourly pay rate.
Explain to me why this tv for $100 [1] isn't perfectly suitable to replace a 2008 40" 1080p Samsung LCD with florescent backlight that 2was a deal at $1000. Yeah, you could get something bigger and better. Yes, price comparison on a sale week is a bit unfair.
