Sony A80J 77" Refurb TV from eBay for $5k - Is This a Good Deal?

I found a refurb (seconds) A80J 77" from Sony Australia eBay store and bought it for $5k.

I'm now having second thoughts because I can essentially get a brand new 75" X90J for more than $2k less. I know the A80J is OLED but I mostly use it to watch Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube and I'm not sure if I can appreciate the $2k OLED difference.

Thoughts before I cancel the order? Thanks!

  • Not a good deal, refund if you can

  • +1

    Two different tech, depend on your needs, and its your money. But I'm happy with my OLED.

  • The A90 is the best tv available right now. I'd love to be able to drop 5k on one. Why buy it if you don't want it? Bit of a strange question really, either you want the best tv or you don't.
    Are you a bit of an impulse buyer?

    • Not an impulse buyer. Have been researching for a while. Happened to see only 1 stock in Ebay so pulled the trigger quickly. But then started thinking that maybe I don't need an OLED after all.

  • I would go OLED if you can afford it and it seems like you can.

  • I would just buy it new as they are on sale 5888 right now. You can most likely get a salesman to knock off a bit more if you're nice to them.

    Mixed reviews on the ebay refurbs. A bit extra for peace of mind when you're already dropping 5g. Do once do right. 3 to 5 years (maybe longer)

    • Yeah currently brand new it's too close to the price I bought. The item is still not shipped but Sony ebay team is not responsive to my requests to cancel :(
