Man, I remember a chain called Grants from when I was a kid 40 years ago.... I thought the chain went out. Wonder if your store was part of the same chain? Hadn't heard that name in a while!


(Don't mind the old guy mumbling to himself in the corner...)

Carry on...carry on....

I'm late for the 'telling you what TV to buy' party but you'll come to really like the 50" set ... in due time you'll be wanting a larger set. \:\)

Congrats old man!

This is the chain I went to as a kid.... probably not the same!

And, more on topic, I sit ~8.5' feet away from a 46" and don't find it too big at all. It's amazing how something that seems too big initially seems perfect after a month!







Shut up, Peter.







And the rest of you, too.

I remember that Grant's chain of stores, 'been a while. We sit 12' from our 73" and while watching TV I find myself more and more often giving the installer (me!) a gold star and a several cold Heineken's for pre-wiring our in-wall runs for a front projector.

Rick, what 73 in. TV do you have?


The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.

Rick - just a very late reply to say congrats on getting the issue resolved. Better late (and free) than never!

Cam, it's a Mitsubishi WD-73727, we've had it for over three years and are happy with it so far. Our next one will be a front projector though.
