So, this is the cheapest you can get this set at the moment - plus you get 90 days to return for a full refund and their 5 year guarantee is second to none.
The only drawbacks are you need to be a member (or know someone who is) and finally.. (#sigh) you gotta find the money. :smiley:
Cold voters rarely justify their vote although I understand this isn't for everyone.
For anyone interested in the 65" - Applicance Electronics have it for £3705.00 with 5 year warranty - credit goes to Technikal at AVForums.

What does this mean? About 3 seconds on Google will inform you that the B6 has the same panel as the other 2016 OLEDs. The main difference is design (B6 has a more normal design, E6 and G6 have flashy picture on glass design - super thin) and lack of 3D. I actually have the E6 but if I'd known the B6 was going to be £1000 cheaper I'd have probably waited and got the B6.
Phone OLED is quite different to LG's TV OLED. Phone OLEDs are primarily coloured pixels and the colour can fade over time leading to degradation. This makes the tech unviable for TVs. TV OLEDs are primarily white pixels with coloured sub pixels, so the brightness will fade over time but LG states that the panels have a lifetime of 100,000 hours, so 30 years if you watch TV 10 hours per day. I think they define lifetime as the duration before the brightness reduces to half the original level. Even if you keep a TV for 10 years, you shouldn't have a problem.

Not thought of that/seen any evidence on mine - although it's only 3 months old.
If this turns out to be the case then I'm sure Costco will sort it out as they have 5 year standard warranty on TVs and a 90 day no quibble return policy. I really hope I don't have to use it!

I've been contemplating buying a new tv but this is waay outta my budget but there are people within the hukd community this might suit - so hope it helps at least 1 person and I'll be happy.
Thanks for expressing your appreciation!

Nice deal.
Is it quite entry level though?

: )
Well, certainly not entry level as far as tv's go. The cheapest LG Oled for 2016 is the 55EG910 - its not 4k nor HDR enabled but the blacks and colour will not be beaten by any LCD/LED tv.
So Roadie... no in a manner of speaking it isnt an entry level tv in the traditional sense nor price wise.

Lol the only reason I ask about the entry level is due to your description.
I want a oled 4k tv but going by the prices, I think I need to be a bit more patient.
