Hi,

Just bought a Sony X8500D "(Seconds)" using the eBay code for $1400. Hoping its a good deal?

Also, hope the "seconds" doesn't mean a defective/damaged product?

Seconds from the Sony store will be working.
Could have been a demo, damaged box or returb. All come with full new warranty.
I have bought some big ticket items from them and have been very satisfied.

What size tv?

  I'm also curious as to how your 'seconds' tv is going. What condition did it turn up in?

Since it's been a couple of weeks (or more) - how is your TV going ? I'm also thinking of purchasing this exact model (looked at the X7000D and the X8500D and the latter seems to be a much better tv for the next 2-3 years)

Just been searching around for the best deal and The Good Guys (with 5% off) seems to be about the best at $1420 (or $1470 delivered)

  Did you end up buying it? I'm looking at the X8500D as well. I think i'd rather pay the extra 66 bucks from The Good Guys and know i'm getting a brand new unit though rather than take the slim risk of a seconds unit not being up to scratch.

    I haven't bought one yet as I was trying to decide between a Sony 55" and the Hisense 7000. The more I read the more I am inclined to just buy the Sony.. but I have to budget in a sound bar as well..
