I wouldn't recommend the sets to anyone, when there are other options in the price range. The 42" I recommended to you was the only 42" at that price range, at regular price on the unit I would be the Vizio everytime.

Get the Vizio, its a great set from a great manufacturer at a great price.
No, I've told you who I was.. I guess you forgot.. I've check with the folks who I know at Wal-Mart where they cell the Emerson version of Funai the 37" really didn't come back as much. I can't say that the ones that Sears and Circuit City carries come back on not. As with all TVs they do get return. Right now a lot of people can't buy sets that are over $1,000. I could sell a lot of Funai since I own one and know a lot about Funai Japan, unlike Funai New Jersey who don't really know what the heck they cell or carry. Funai CA is just as band. There marketing is terrible and the product are all over the place at Wal-Mart.

Sear pushes the Samsung like crazy.. I am not crazy about Samsung produces. SONY isn't any better. Philips does try but their outlet site tells more about how long their brand holds up.

The new limited Edition series is brand new for Funai USA, but the hum problem on the MOBO is not a good sign. Might be better to stick with non LES. But how come you have trouble selling them..

Could be your displays of it though. Why are the Samsung pushed more at Sears.
