Selling my TV
Figured I would give you guys first dibs on it. I'm listing my two month old 47" LG TV for $800 on Craigslist. It's still selling for $999.99 at Bestbuy, (where I bought it). I need to pay off a ticket and pay a payment of college tuition so only reason I'm selling it (unfortunately).
It's located in Corpus Christi.

Click on "ADD TO CART" and you can plainly see the $787.99 price.
This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

It's not surprising at the very least. TVs have been dropping in price big time.

Call the Best Buy you purchased the TV from.
Tell them the date you bought the TV and you still have the original receipt and ask them if they will refund the difference since it is now on sale.
The worst thing that can happen is they say "No."

I had to sell my Panasonic 52" that was 4 months old for 600 dollars on Craigslist due to financial issues as well. So good luck trying to get that price when they can just go get a brand new one for a little more.
Hope the best for you bro.

I feel like $650 is low balling myself so I don't think this will ever sell. This is an amazing TV and honestly I don't even think I could make myself sell it for $650. I feel like I'm screwing myself over for that price.

I felt the exact same way, imagine my situation. But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I think I was in more of a pickle than you seem to be if your not willing to part with it lol. For me it was sell the TV or your on the street. (rent).

I'm in that situation to a T.. lol.
I paid off a speeding ticket today ($211), have rent in two weeks, phone bill next week, gas, food, and a girlfriend that lives five hours away. It costs, gas alone, $120 to see her for a weekend. Things are tight.
