Do NOT buy from here
November 25, 2018

I was looking for a very specific tv and supposedly ABCTVs had it. I typed in the exact model number that i wanted. Once i places the order i got a call from Al at *******739. Al asked me to call him back at *******986. He the proceed to try and upcharge me for the tv i had already purchased because even though the model numbers are the same i was "buying an inferior tv to what Best Buy sells that's why there is a big price difference". The tv i already decided to purchase from them is a commercial version and that if i wanted the same as Best Buy has i should have picked the more expensive version on their site. So he then offered me that tv for a few hundred less than Best Buy. No where on the site does it describe any differences between the same model numbers. Very shady and completely unprofessional.

I have been trying to contact this company to arrange someone to stay home for the 5-7day delivery I chose. I ordered on Saturday, it should arrive in 2-3 days at most. After 5 days it still shows processing on the website.

I placed the order. Was called to confirm the next day. Was told they only had the 8-bit and asked if I wanted to upgrade to the 10-bit. LG never made an 8-bit in OLED C9. I said I would take the 8-bit. Waited 9 days. Called to find out where my TV was. They told me the order was cancelled because LG didn't have any more C9 in stock but they could get me the CX for $2199 (their cost) which was almost $700 more than my original TV. I said no thank you. They said I was supposed to receive an email telling my order was cancelled. I did not. At least they did not charge my card.

Too good to be true
August 28, 2018

I searched Google shopping for the best price on an LG OLED tv. ABCtvs had everyone beat by several hundred $$, so I ordered from them. I received an order confirmation shortly afterwards. Several days went by with no shipping notification or update of any kind. I decided to cal and ask about the status of my order. When I finally spoke to a person after being on hold for a long time, he said my order had been canceled. I asked why. He then said they only had one available at that price because the box was damaged, and someone else ordered it before me. I had printed the page for the TV when I ordered, and there was no mention of any damage, and it was listed as in stock when I ordered. I said, "So you are not going to honor the pricing on my invoice?". He said,"No. Deal with it." WOW! The worst customer service ever.

The obvious support the ALP & the negative comments, sneered comments, critisism towards the NLP is absolutely obvious and unbearable. Not just in one program, but across the board in all programs. It's insidious. As a frequent ABC viewer, I'm over it & unable to support the ABC any further. Where is your unbiased reporting? I'm done. No more ABC for me. Bye bye.

I placed an order for a new Samsung TV. The website said in-stock, usually ships in 1-2 business days. After about 2 weeks I emailed to find out the status on my order, no response from them. Waited another week and emailed again... again no response. Finally I called and was told that they were unable to deliver the TV because they are not an authorized seller for Samsung and they had to get the product from another company. That company refused to sell it to them because the price they advertised was too low.

Now the sameTV is advertised at a slightly higher price, but he said that I couldn't buy it for that price either. What a joke and a complete waste of time. Their website is clearly a scam.

ABCTV--not trustworthy
January 14, 2019

ABCTV is making misleading advertising. I bought a TV from them. When I called to check on delivery date, they canceled my purchase. I was told the price was a typographic mistake. I spoke with numerous people at ABCTV, including the manager, but they did not want to resolve the matter. I will never trust them.

Ripoff
August 27, 2020

Bought a 86? LG Nano Cell, the day it came had problems called that day, they wouldn't take it back. They wanted to charge me 750 to ship back and 750 for restocking. Total ripoff. I called a company to delivery itv, they told mec175 dollars. They kept sending me to one person then another, huge scam. Go to best buy or Amazon, where they will do returns and cost you nothing. Worst purchase I have ever made.

Terrible business model
November 7, 2019

When I ordered my product, it showed as available on their site. Soon after I received a call where they tried to upsell me. When I declined, they put my order on "backorder" for 3 weeks. STILL shows available, but don't believe them.

These guys are total scam. Gave me a different answer every time I called. They are phishing for info and credit cards. They lie about everything!
1. To talk you into paying more, they tell you that the higher price model of a TV that they sell is ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT from the manufacturer (OEM) and the cheaper one is made in China with cheaper parts. BUT it's a LIE.
2. That MAGNOLIA from Best Buy is the same as OEM. Total lie. MAGNOLIA is Best Buy's own brand.
3. They make up ALL kinds of excuses as to why your TV hasn't shipped.
4. Every day a new excuse as to why order has not shipped.
5. They lie about who works there or who is sick or at another location.
6 Customer service NEVER answers the phone. EVER
7. All voice mailboxes are full and cannot accept msgs
8. Claimed I "did not pay for 3-day shipping even though it says so on my receipt.
9. Claimed I did not pay for 5 year service plan even though it says so on my invoice/receipt

OLEG65E9 scam
April 8, 2020

This is a scam. Here is the email I got 1 day later:
When an LTL driver arrives at your home with your TV. Customer must inpect and plug in TV while driver is waiting. Please Do not sign BOL without proper inspection. Once BOL is signed insurance is waved unfortunately and the Sale is final and non refundable. If the Tv is damaged call us while the driver is present. Tv must be refused and noted on BOL that it is damaged. We do our best to ship safely however things can happen.

I purchased an OLED TV on this site on Friday, July 24 and logged in to see the status on Tuesday, July 28 to find it marked cancelled. No explanation, no email, the pending charge on my credit card was removed.
Won't be buying from them again.

I purchase a LG OLED55C88PUA on November 26,2018. I never received my order. Started calling them after 2 weeks and was told it was on order. Called a week later, same answer. This went on for the month of December with the same answer. I called every week in January & February and it was either on back order or would ship any day. I stopped calling but when I log in to their site, my order is still there so I wrote a nice letter to the Better Business Bureau and they never received a response from ABCTVs. When you go on their site and look up the exact TV, it is still listed in stock, will ship within 5 days but for a higher price than what they sold one to me. I would strongly advise everyone to stay away from this company unless you like being scammed.

SCAMMERS RUN!
December 27, 2019

Ordered a 65" Samsung q80r for $1,178.00. Amazing price. Get a phone call the next day saying this tv is 8 bit like a corporate boardroom monitor. The 10 bit is 500 more. I called bs on the guy then called Samsung. They said ALL Q80rs are 10 bit. The guy also said shipping the next day. I got a bad feeling and called back the next day. Guy said would be shipping in a MONTH! Said tv was coming from a different company. I cancelled order. DO NOT BUY FROM ABC TVS!

Seems like a real scam
August 31, 2018

Their prices are, indeed, too good to be true. Dound a great deal on a new TV. Ordered it, several days went by, nothing. So I called, and they tried to tell me that tue TV I ordered was a commercial grade TV (even though the model number was identical to the TVs at Best Buy), and tried to upsell me to the residential grade TV (same model). However, even right now, their site doesn't list what I ordered as a "commercial grade" TV. Total scam.

February 16,2019 Don't trust them; I ordered TV from them in December of 2018 for unbelievable price but when TV came it was different than I ordered. Guy by name Mike Franklin tried to tell me it was what I ordered; however, I kept e-mail from them which they sent me to confirm my order. It clearly mentioned different model which I ordered. After I sent them this e-mail as proof they canceled my order altogether. Stay away from them!

Scam outfit
August 31, 2018

Purchased a OLED TV. Two days later they told me what I had bought was a Commercial LG OLED and that it need a special chip to activate it. Then they said the TV I wanted was about $1,600 dollars more and that they could adjust the order.

They do not advertise Commercial TVs (for hotel lobbies etc.) on their web sit "ABCTVS.com. I checked this several times to make sure I didn't miss something. After reading other REVIEWS, I discovered that this was not a mistake but rather a scam. Scam and a waste of my time.
