Anyone SE a whole TV? (Costco) LOL - Gertzerroz - 12-16-2024
Anyone SE a TV before? I was thinking Costco? I got quite a lot spent with them and never SE'd them before. DNA would probably be the only method. Anyone done it before?

The easiest method with televisions is to buy a broken TV on Marketplace or a classified ads website, purchase a new one on Amazon, and switch the labels to exchange them. I've done it several times without any issues.

If you return as regular they'll sell it to someone else and then they'll have to take extra steps to bring it back. Try to make it as clean as possible when it comes to regular people.

However, this is for c0stco.ca, if you're American.

American, I might go with what Exodeen said and do the swap. Even DNA seems a bit tough with such a large item but i've heard of people DNA'ing furniture from wayfair so what do i know? I've DNA'd a 34 inch ultrawide monitor that comes in a massive box before so maybe it isn't out of the question.
