I was dropping off some computers at the local recycling place, and there was a 65 inch Mitsubishi projection TV with remote there. I commented that it looked to be in great shape and surprised to see it there. The label on the back said it was manufactured in April 2007. The lady running the place that day said that the owner got estimates to get it fixed, but couldn't afford to get the work done on it, so he brought it in. I asked her what was wrong with it, and she said he told her the lamp was burned out. It is one of those DLP TV's (same technology as the ceiling mounted projectors found in offices and churches). I asked her if I can have it if I can fix it, and she said go for it. If I couldn't fix it she said to bring it back, as the recycling fee had already been paid, and she couldn't locate the guy who dropped it off to refund his $12.75. So, the lamp cost me $118 all said and done and 5 minutes of my time and now have a 65 inch 1080p High Definition TV! Had it needed more repairs than just the lamp, the return postage and restocking fee would have been about $40, so I thought it wasn't too big of a gamble.
Glad I went for it!!
