Lep Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 [hide]My tv stand is fitting with the height being 24.5" exactly. The tv I'm looking at is 23" with the stand which is 1.5" from the top of the tv to the roof of the tv stand. Tv I'm looking at Will 1.5" be enough room for ventilation space for the tv I'm looking at? I'm not exactly sure where the vents are located on these things. I'm pretty sure I've never seen any tv with the vents at the very top though. Unless anyone knows an even better/smaller sized tv that I can buy somewhere, or even a 36" tv if that even exists.[/hide] Continuing my question... I've never even been to the website in my life until just right now. They have a very similar tv to the one I was looking for but I'm not sure if it's safe to buy from Amazon. Here's the link to the tv. I don't understand that it says 'New'. If it's new, how did they get it? Did some random guy buy the tv from a store somewhere and then decide he didn't want it after all, then sell it to amazon? Or did amazon buy the tv and can't get rid of it so they sell it cheaper? I have no idea how the website/company works so some information would be nice. I don't trust buying used things... especially expensive things like this.

Swiller2 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 I have 3 TV's similar to this in my house, one is a Panasonic very close to the one you linked. On all of them the fans/vents are on the rear panel (back). 2 of them are in entertainment units with pretty tight fits (not a lot of room around them in the stand/cabinet) and operate fine. One is on like 24/7 and never seems to get warm or overheat. So I think you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das1330 Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 This should go in tech & computers, but the TV should be fine - they really don't get terribly hot in most cases. So long you don't live in an area where the outside temperature regularly tops 100 degrees there should be no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3PointMan Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 We fit a 32" tv in a spot 32.5", and it was fine. There was little room and there were only slight holes in the back of the stand. You'll be fine. http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/tt206/samtheninja/Tags/FEARLESStag.jpg http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy156/song4thedeaf/stuff.png what i'm doing now: https://linktr.ee/student1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giordano Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Yes, Amazon is quite safe. It's new because they buy it off the manufacturer and sell it as a retail. Think of it like how Best Buy sells new things but they don't make nothing. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."

Lep Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 Okay sounds good to me. So where it says 'New' it's never been opened before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faux Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Amazon has their own warehouses, like any other store (i.e. Wal-mart). If it's new, it's new. Make sure if you're buying something that it's from amazon (under seller information) :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star_Fox Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Buying from online retailers is entirely based on YOUR CONFIDENCE. That means you're responsible for anything that goes wrong between youand the other party you were dealing with. If you take action against someone online, you can technically file a lawsuit or just report it. Butfiling a lawsuit over failing to receive a 20 dollar item you bought (inexpensive I know), it might cost you more in the long run. Which is whyfor some, buying or selling online is discouraged. As for me, I've been using ebay to buy and sell for 3 years and had no problems with it. Although one time, I bought a pair of cheap earphones for 99 cents and as I got it, the left bud came off and it didn't work. But like they say, you get what you pay for. lol. The bestthing you can do to make sure the transactions go right is to look at feedbacks and look at how long they've been on the website.I always make sure the buyer or seller contacts me before the transaction so I know who I am dealing with. If you're looking to buy more expensive goods like cars or property, use Craigslist. You can still use ebay although you might not be getting good deals and plus the fact that 99% of them are dealers waiting to rip you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure if you're buying something that it's from amazon (under seller information) Buying direct from amazon is buying it new. I order from them almost biweekly (mostly toys, dvd's and video games). I choose Amazon for DVD's, Video Games, etc over a retailer usually. I've learned to love them.13 orders so far in 201127 orders in 201022 in 2009 14 in 20082 in 2007 Amazon has slowly became my go to place for media I say this as an ebayer with 760+ feedback - avoid it for big $$$ electronics "Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better.

The_Gabe Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Amazon is very reliable. We order from it almost every week. Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
