- r***t (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseProduct is exactly what I expected, packaged well. Arrived on time and is good value. The seller realized they didn’t have the remote (per listing it said it did) but the seller reached out quickly and asked if I’d like a full refund or take it without the remote with a $20 refund. Really appreciated the honesty and options they provided. I chose to take the tv with the $20 refund for missing remote. Tv is in REALLY good condition.

- n***r (97)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseShipping was rather quick and the packaging was done really well. It protected the tv set fine. Said set was as described, I also appreciated the fact they included a video to ensure buyers that it does indeed work. Thought it was a good value overall, it was a fair one. Just wanted this for a long time and now I got it. If you’re on the fence of getting a tv here, don’t hesitate because they do a great job with everything. Highly recommend this seller for sure!
