[sf-lug] equivalent of newegg for buying a new/refurbished TV?

[Nathan Hoover]

Check out www.dealnews.com - they frequently have deals from a variety of
sites.

excellent service too; they frequently have good deals on Vizio
refurbs.
(disclosure: that's my affiliate link, I will get a little kickback if you
order from there).

I have a Philips 37" LCD that I got from the Philips Outlet for $605
shipped, found it on DealNews.
