[QUOTE="BlackOutUT, post: 14030602, member: 132719"] I have mounted probably 10+ TVs and never had a problem. But I've never dealt with metal studs. I called my friend over who has a construction background to try and help me out. Apparently we both didn't know as much as we thought about mounting TVs. What really kills me is we had it up. Tried pulling on it very hard and it didn't come out. BUT, we decided it needed more support, so we left it up, but made sure the tv was actually resting on some file boxes. Never thought it would come out with the support under it. We were wrong. We should have just taken it back down. Costly mistake. The discount is a long shot, but it actually has a chance of happening as we're going through my friends brother in law who actually sells TVs. IDK we'll see. On another note, I'm checking into using my parents homeowners insurance as long as it doesn't mess with their policy. Other than that I've began the search for a new TV. Things are getting interesting as I try to track down a new TV. Might need to start a new thread on this, but heres where I'm at... The 4k TVs that are out now are nice, but the next way will really be a step up. Panasonic is claiming better black levels in their new 4K tvs than the previous plasmas. Great! But they are not scheduled to be out for a few more months. The new wave of 4k tvs will be costly, but shit, so are the VT60s & ZT60s! They are going for 4k on Amazon and other similar sites. The exact same company I ordered from is selling them for $3800. Paid $2800 last June. Nuts. I found a small shop selling a demo that was on the floor a week for $2700. That might be the best available deal I'm seen. (This one kills me) I found a guy selling a 3 month old VT60 with receipt for $1800 about 15 miles from me. Sold it 3 days ago. Other than that these plasmas are nowhere. I can get a pretty good deal through my friends brother in law on a TV that is actually available. So I'm thinking I'm going to buy a Samsung plasma as suggested or something similar. Sharp seems to have really improved their Aquis line now that they're 4k. I'm just hoping that if I go with a current 4k, I'll be able to sell it for around what I bought it for when the new ones come out in a few months. What a mess... [/QUOTE]
