Yes, that's pretty bad. At least it's exposing this garbage for what it really is - garbage! About 3 years ago, a friend bought a 27" Apex TV from walmart for, I think, less than $200! Well, the thing died in a few months. He thought he could just lug it back to walmart and get another set or a refund - WRONG! They told him that it was out of their hands and he'd have to take it up with Apex. They said he'd probably have to ship the TV back to Apex at his expense. Well, I replaced a diode in the power supply and got it going for him. He grumbled about it being only a few months old and his Grandmother had a Zenith for 25 years before it died. I reminded him that the old Zenith was much better quality and cost a lot more than $179.99.
It's really bad when you're trying to sell a quality used TV and the potential buyer tells you that they can get a new one at walmart for $20 more. I don't even argue with them anymore. I just tell them to head to walmart.
