[Costco] IN STOCK Hisense 70-in. 4K HDR Roku Smart TV 70R6209 for 797.99 + Eco Fee [FS]

Deal Link:: https://www.costco.ca/hisense-70-in.-4k ... 26425.html
Price:: 797.99
Retailer:: Costco

This is NOT a sale price. But a great price for a 70 inch TV. Probably lowest from all retailers, including refurbished

I have been tracking this for a while now. 2 weeks ago it was in stock for less than 24 hours.

There are multiple threads about this product in RFD with positive reviews from previous RFD buyers. The lowest it went down to was $767 back in Nov 2019 (I think)

Could not find rtings review for this exact model. But overall well-rated

PS: First (original) post. Really big fan of RFD and all contributors.

Tempted also. I've been waiting for the 75R61G to drop...even by just $100....and I was going to jump on it.

Newer model, a bit bigger....it seems worth the extra $200 if it dropped to $999. Any opinions?

Just realized that the 90 days return (or Price match) window is awfully close to Black Friday. Off by 1 day. Meh! Still a decent deal.

the return window starts from when you receive the TV so you should be good

Isn't $10 more a better option for being shipped to home (it says room of choice, so even better)? Especially a TV of this size.

does this mean the feet of the stands are 89cm apart at the furthest point?

Isn't that the height measurement?

Looking at the display unit and box the legs look pretty close to each edge of the TV so probably ~55-60in distance

Back in stock at $797, 63 units available.

I would give my life to protect your right to say something really funking stupid.

Respect your OP's. They don't get paid to do this, and don't have to come here to post their deals for you. They can all just hoard their deals in silence, if you prefer?

Thanks for posting this deal.

Been cruising the multiple TV threads on here and was really scratching my head on the two TCL 65" Series 6 vs Series 5 debate.

Decided to give this 70" one and have it delivered for less $ than me picking it up and driving it home. For the price it was too hard to pass up.

Didn't buy the warranty yet...figured I have 90 days to decide so I'll figure that out later.

We're all bozos on the bus until we find a way to express ourselves...

Failure is always an option...just not the preferred one!

Does this have HDMI 2.1? Looking for a decently priced TV that is solid for watching sports, movies and playing PS5.

Family member picked up this TV and are trying to get it running.

Issue is that it gets stuck at the Roku “Activate your TV” screen. The field where the code should appear just keeps on spinning.

The TV is connected to internet via wireless, which I know is working since the first thing the TV did was do a software update.

Next step is trying to contact customer support, and will try connecting via Ethernet and then wireless hot spot.

Edit: Problem was solved by using Ethernet. Hoping can switch back to wireless after setup is done.
