Immediately i was mad because i knew at that point, all i was going to get was my money back, and lose the great deal.. BUT.. I called Vizio about the issue, and within 4 days, they had a truck at my door, along with 2 guys that were there to remove my broken TV and replace it with a brand new one! Imagine my level of happiness
I bought a 65" and 50" Samsung 4K HDR TV (6300 series) from Dell last summer. Net cost after promo codes, gift cards, and before tax was around $650. You should try harder with your superior haggling skills! =)

All pun aside. OP, spend some time on slickdeals.net, and use rtings.com to look up TV set reviews. The best TV really depends on what you're expecting to get overall (price, picture quality, value, size, name brand, and etc).

One of the better valued TVs right now is the Hisense H8 series, which has 4K 10-bit HDR capability, unlike most HDR TVs that only come with 8-bit panels.

See link for an example: https://slickdeals.net/f/9775531-his...12am-to-public

Here's another pretty solid deal on an LG 75" 4K set if you're looking to go bigger: https://slickdeals.net/f/9830303-75-...-free-shipping

Best of luck with the search, and remember that technology is ever changing, and newer models are being pushed out every year. You'll be sure to find a great deal on a nice TV if you wait long enough.
