Buying late model Samsung DLP rear projection TV?


Is it worth considering buying a late model slim Samsung DLP rear projection TV on the used market? Flat panel TVs are coming down in price, but a used DLP is still cheaper. I am aware that a new bulb will cost $150.

Buy one made in the last two years with the LEDs instead of the expensive bulb replacement. I bought the 67" almost a year ago and am just as thrilled with it today as the day it arrived.
As long as it's really cheap & lamp is really only 150, go for it, not a fan of rear projection TV's but the dlps rptv's can look good when calibrated " not so bright". Should be under a thousand, otherwise competing with new 720p plasmas that are priced low in a 1080p world.
Mjcmt,

When someone refers to a LED, they mean a DLP or LCD display with an LED light source instead of a lamp. They provide long life and from what I understand a great picture.

Bought a new 60" Samsung slim DLP w/LED light source (2yrs?) ago from BB (interest free for 3 yrs). Really, really, really like it. Coming from a Sony SBR Videoscope 56" that was still going after 10 yrs. The Samsung is a great value in my opinion. I wanted as big as I could get. My wife wanted slim. The DLP slim (14 - 16" depth at most) was a good compromise. Further, in our great room with sometimes strong daylit conditions while trying to watch early morning F1, the DLP works. We watch a LOT of TV...it's been flawless to date. If you are right about the $150 for the LED (doh! I didn't ask the price for replacing the LED!!), sounds like a good deal.
