So, we’ve been looking into a big TV for some time. Looking at places like Futureshop and Bestbuy. However, they were always too expensive. So, we checked out Openbox.ca

We got a 60″ Smart TV !!!! for $1000. I dunno anywhere else you can get such a enormous TV for cheaper! This price is if you  purchase with cash/debit card. Otherwise, it’s $1019.99. But even then, that’s a huge bargain!

Just because it’s cheap doesn’t mean want cheap products. We took a USB loaded with test files (ie. high res videos, images, different colour panels, etc) since the previous TV had dead pixels that only showed in certain colours. So we had to test it out! We didn’t want to bring back a 60″ back to the store again, so we desperately asked the hesitant manager if we could take it out of the box and try it out.

We went to the Richmond location, and the manager and one staff works there. The manager speaks absolutely no English, so the staff had to keep translating everything both ways. The manager wasn’t happy with us testing out the product, he kept complaining in Mandarin, but we didn’t care. Even if it was significantly cheaper, we weren’t going to buy damaged goods.

We had a bit of trouble with the new remote control, but it’s all been resolved by googling for answers. Yay! Now it’s time to watch some HD movies!!

Oh, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
