So I have the opportunity to buy a 32" Aconda by Leowe. I checked the set out and the picture just blew my mind. The Super mode glued my eyes to the TV and completely sold me. But, I hear parts are no longer available in America since they're not sold here anymore, however, there is a 3rd party company that provides service somewhere in NY or New Jersey or something. The TV is being sold used for $600 and works fine. What do you guys think? If something breaks on it, what options will I have, if any?! :confused:

Never heard of that TV but that doesn't mean anything.:D
Where did you see it? Is it properly calibrated when you saw it or just a wow factor appearance?

If it breaks, you have two choices, send it to NY/NJ for repair, not cheap, of junk it. So, is that $600 worth it on an unknown quantity, no warranty?

That's a tough call; on the one hand a Leowe Aconda is one of the finest direct view TVs you can buy at any price. On the other, service might be a problem. Provided you can simply carry it to your car (ie avoid having shippers/gorillas toss it around) it should work fine for years. They're a good brand with a good reputation for reliability. You'd have to pay a lot of $$$ to get a new TV that could come close to the Aconda.

I saw one of those sets two years ago and you are right about the image, pretty stunning. It was been sold in a high end store and they were NOT cheap. Depending on the age/use it has had, for $600 it is a steal.
