I've heard some mixed things about buying big screens from Costco, even name brand ones. Make sure you check the model number and compare it to other items on sale elsewhere and read reviews. In my experience (limited as it is), the model numbers at Costco don't match up with any available anywhere else. I went researching a couple years ago to see if I could figure out why, and the only explanation I found (again, not saying for sure this is true) is that Costco purchases the "reject" models at a discount that didn't make the cut for the "official" model, but aren't bad enough to throw away. Just a thought!
