Olevia 65 inch 1080p lcd - Page 59

Wow, this brings back the memories!

Every once in a while I search for Olevia 747i and 265 on ebay and craigslist. Nice sets!

I have one of each of those sets. They are both still very fine sets. The 747i has one stuck green subpixel now:mad:, but I can't see it from viewing distance:D. They are both still really heavy, but they have only been moved once since I owned them. The last of the 265's that I know of sold at retail by Microcenter for ~$1,300 (what a steal) !

Yep, there's a 265 on ebay right now for $599 if you happen to be in Ca. It is one heavy TV, I actually took down the wall and put a 2x10 behind the drywall to support it, went ahead and put a pvc tube back there as well so i could change/add cables. I had to hire movers to get it up on the wall cause the thing weighs so much and I mounted it over a fireplace. Currently a blank spot:(

Replaced inverter #4, mines back up and running!

Anyone had to make a warranty call recently? I believe I purchased my TV back in 09 and got the 3 year warranty + 1 with my plus membership (Currently looking for my receipt). Occasionally the picture will freeze or completely go black. Very bad red ghosting on a lot of TV shows (always kind of been there but its getting worse). The TV is up on our wall where it has lived for the last 4 years. I am just curious how many times I will have to try to get help to get it off the wall for one of their techs to look at / fix. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance! Glad to see this forum still has a little life. Been following it from page 1.

I would just go ahead take it down and have it on something if its not that big of a deal and you're going to replace it anyway.

If you're plan is to keep it and wait til its all the way dead, just leave it up. When the repair man comes out and looks at it, he's gonna make a call. Or say I'll get back to you. When he gets off that call or gets back to you, he's gonna say there's no parts for that TV. and you're extended warranty company will be issuing a check for your full amount and the TV is yours to dispose of.

Also, double check with repair company they initially set you up with. If they have sent you some one from over 100 miles away when there's 2 places in town that are certified. Demand to use the company close.

End of an era, just saw my Olevia leaving on the back of my carpenter's truck. Traded it for labor on a few projects. A new Vizio E70 will be here Monday. These things were so much trouble I lived in terror for four and a half years waiting for it to break and it never did. Never a minute's trouble, the picture was as good today as the day I got it on Woot. 8/28/08-01/22/13

I have not yet called them just trying to get a little information before I do. There are no parts available to fix these sets? If I knew for sure I would go ahead and replace it and I can find a place to store it for now until they get around to looking at it. If there is a chance they can fix it I dont have a place to put it but also still use it while I wait. Also do you know if they will wait around for the issue to occure? Some time it doesnt happen all day others multiple times a day (the loss of signal). Thanks for the info!

Has anyone sold one of these recently on CL? If so, what kind of prices are they bringing? $600?
