he San Diego County area? =A0If so,
more details, make and model of the tv, etc
Diego County area? If so,
Ummm.... if it's an LED TV (presumably LED back or side lighting), then it's probably no more than about 10 months old. Didn't you get a warranty?
Also, all TV repairmen lie. For example, the line "that's a great TV you have there and well worth fixing" is usually intended to reassure the customer that they didn't buy a total piece of junk that's probably going to fail sporadically for its entire useful life. Forget about honest. I'm not sure what you mean by "safe" but I haven't heard of any TV electrocutions for a few years. Reliable is also questionable as nobody shows up or delivers on time any more. I don't know any repairman that qualifies, including myself. Sorry.

What about the manufacturer's "official" repair shops?
Diego County area? If so,
I told a lot of customers that their electronics weren't worth wasting money to repair. TVs, two way radios, VCRs it didn't matter. If it was junk, I told them to replace it. people would still call me for other repair work, so I still had more work than I could handle until my health failed and I had to shut down the shop.

First of all, how has it failed? If it has failed due to impact damage and the screen is broken, it isnt econoical to fix it. As others have stated it should be covered under the manufacturers warranty still.

Mike: According to Samsung, it's not covered under their warranty. I guess I will have to either live with it or buy another one. Thank you anyway.
Keith
Didn't you say the set was about 10 months old? Or did I misunderstand?
And just what isn't covered?

If your screen is Dark(!) it may be repairable for a reasonable amount of money. But if you are missing groups of pixels (or groups of LED backlight) you may be SOL.
On another thread, he reported that the screen's anti- reflective coating was accidentally torn. Warranties usually only cover manufacturing defects, not damage due to accidents.

Duh. Right. I forgot.
Ah ok. I don't think any kind of tear could be classified as a defect in workmanship. And it's doubtful that this is something that can be replaced without replacing the entire panel.
