So I had my eye on a PN58B540 at auctions dot samslub dot com as it was ending in an hour. The bid was very low at the time(in the 9's) before $100 shipping and tax. Well, the bid hardly moved throughout the hour, and I gave serious consideration to placing a bid. I even got the confirmation from the boss
.
I looked throughout the item page, but never saw what condition the set was in. I thought htis was odd, so I googled this and found 1 complaint of these auctions passing off refurbs items as new w/o warranty and not accepting returns.
I called and spoke to a rep, WHO CONFIRMED THE ITEMS ON THEIR AUCTIONS CAN BE OVERSTOCKS, RETURNS, OR REFURBS.
Long story short, I didnt bid and the set went for a FANTASTIC price, but sadly, the winner could get a buzzer or another issue that he/she is stuck with.
