Toshiba 30HF84 30" TheaterWide HD-Ready Flat-Screen TV
Do I Feel Lucky??
Ordering this TV from Amazon is a risky venture. The Toshiba model has a spotty reliability history. Amazon will not accept returns or assist in resolving problems. Toshiba is uncooperative in fixing any defects.  <br />   My experience: I purchased this TV from Amazon thinking I had gotten a good deal on a good TV. After turning the set on, the picture became erratic before completely failing soon after. The next day I contacted Amazon and was told there was nothing they could do and I needed to contact Toshiba.  <br />   Toshiba was slightly more helpful. They had a factory authorized service center pick up the TV. The TV has now been gone for six weeks and I still know nothing about its status. My calls to the repair shop go unanswered. My calls to Toshiba are equally unhelpful. Toshiba verifies that the repair shop is a factory authorized outlet and that they pay them for their work, yet Toshiba says they also cannot contact the shop.  <br />   No one is able to tell me when or if I can expect the return of my set. It could be days, weeks, or months, or even longer. If the set still doesn't work correctly, I get to go through this experience again. This is standard acceptable customer service for both Amazon and Toshiba.  <br />   If you are considering purchasing a TV from Amazon, you would be wise to ask yourself a very important question- \\"do I feel lucky?\\" <br />
