Epson Home Cinema 3100 Full HD 1080p 3LCD Projector $999

This is a pretty good projector...note that the refurbished models from epson are frequently pretty new as well and do come with full warranty, so the $999 is pretty much paying for shipping and costco's return policy, but still a good deal.

Is there any other coupons available to bring even further down?

No, I tried everything. Most coupons don't apply to clearance. I've heard great stuff about Epson support though.

Projector counts as electronics and fall in the 90 days period at Costco.
On the other hand, the refurb 1060 is $500 on Epson, pretty good price for a shorter throw daylight projector, black level is worst than my 2040 however.

I was thinking about it from Costco for $800.
I cannot find it on Epson site.
Please share link if you have it?

Here is the link for 1060 but it is sold out now: https://epson.ca/Clearance-Centre/Home- ... 1H849020-N

This projector was available for $650 on Costco.ca till yesterday and the price has returned to 'normal' today. I am not sure how frequently is it discounted by Costco, but you may want to wait for it.

The same projector is available for $650 at Amazon.ca (though only 2 are left right now) https://www.amazon.ca/HOME-CINEMA-1060- ... 123&sr=8-3

1080p?

What is this 2010?

4k projectors are still expensive, between 4k on a large TV and 1080p on a humongous projected screen, I'll take the later lol
Eg 65" vs 120", 240% larger area

Thank you.
I see amazon has it for $650 still. But after knowing it was available for $500, I am not happy to pull the trigger

I dont think your explanation will make any sense to them.

It will get restocked if you're patient, at least in the past when I was shopping for the 2040

65" 4k OLED sitting 6 feet away all the way! Sure you can have 120 inch but sit too close and you can see the pixels and the picture won't compare to 4k HDR 120Hz OLED. But to each his own

Do you also post on Hyundai forums that you prefer to drive a BMW?

For the price of a 4k OLED 65" you can jump a little higher and buy the 4K Sony projector which makes any tv sub $20k look a joke from 6ft or 60ft.

I got this for the basement: staples-viewsonic-px747-4k-projector-84 ... s-2348918/

Dlp, 4k (ish) and Hdr10 (not atmos). Very happy with the picture quality. Says a lot since my main set in a lg c8 OLED

Seems like Epson 5040UB is still the best bang for the buck, but viewsonic 747 is cheapest '4k' projector, right?

Awesome, you saved me a lot of research! I’m finishing our basement right now, and have been planning to buy a decent refurb projector. Read a bunch of reviews, and the 5040UB seems like a great projector for the price. Thank you @number17!

Same ... but i think it's getting to a point where 4k projector is more affordable. So you can have the cake and eat it too

Viewsonice 747 was on sale for under $1k after tax, and yes, that is a cheap 4k projector and you get what you pay for, but it *is* a very affordable 4k projector.

BenQ TK800m (not 800, but 800m) and HT3550 are in the $1k-1.5k range when on sale, and those are better projectors.

I still think the Epson 5040UB refurb from Epson.ca is the best bang for the buck at $1.6k all in, has a 2 year warranty and is a far superior "4k" projector. Yes it's faux 4k, but it is a great projector and still has way more details than a 1080p projector

I have it, and it's excellent...on the epson site I think it's about as good back for your buck as you're going to get. Note that the stock changes on the epson site almost daily, so if one is sold out, just keep checking back.
