Cheap TV recommendations

private joker · #1 12-11-2005, 05:05 PM

I'm getting a second TV for my bedroom, and I don't need anything fancy. No plasma screen/LCD/HD, etc. Just a decent 27" box for like $300 or so. Should I stick with Sony, or do we prefer something else?

I recently bought a 24" Sanyo at Wal-Mart and love it. A steal at $164.

A agree, if you're just buying a normal tube TV, no need in buying Sony. There is very little difference between brands.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your opinion) there's no WalMart in L.A. My choices are Target & Best Buy, or Fry's if I want to drive.

Doesn't Target & BB price-match?

I've actually had negative sony experiences for tube tvs

go with the Sanyo...cheaper and more reliable from my anecdotal evidence.

you can probably hit an easy jackpot for something in this range via classified ads
