			I've bought 4 tv's from them all legit, just make sure you check the date on the back of the tv to make sure they're not super old.
 great deals though

			Im bumping this old thread.
 Thinking of getting a tv from them shortly. Any others with experiences through openbox?
 Is it worth it to save a few $$$?

			i was to purchase a 55' tv last year from them. the top model from the states the previous year. what bothered me was that it had no warranty ( i think it was like 3mo's or something) and it cannot be returned if there was a issue. 
 didn't wanna chance it so since i was dropping 1k (it's a lot to me) so I bought a new 50' for 1k. compromised on size for intangible value.

on topic - I've bought some smaller ticket items from them (printer, desktop monitor) with no problems. just have to know what to look for as far as defects and damage are concerned.

			Just bought a 27 inch samsung monitor couple months ago. Still works fine to this day. The warranty with them ia a year, if there is any problem with it within the year you can exchange it.Posted via RS Mobile
