Waste of time
June 29, 2019

I ordered LG OLED TV, which they claimed in stock and available at the moment. But, several days later, one of the rep called me that the model is out of stock and tried to recommend another model of TV. What a waste of time.

Very deceptive, STAY AWAY
February 13, 2019

I ordered the LG Electronics OLED65C8PUA 65-Inch 4K Ultra HD Smart OLED TV on their website yesterday for $1647. 00, and today they called me and said that this TV was a "Commercial" model not the "Consumer" model. The Commercial model was for use only in airports, and closed circuit applications, and was not designed to work with cable boxes, like Dish, or DirecTv. Etc. However if I wanted the consumer model the price magically jumped up to $2590. 00. Their website is very deceptive as it doesn't give the details on the differences as the model number is listed exactly the same on both models. When they called me today, it was a very high pressure attempt to get me to change my order. I told them to cancel my order and would order from Abe's of Maine, who has a great price of $2,069.00 shipped which is the lowest price I have found so far.

They Came Through
July 18, 2020

Freaked out after reading several bad reviews of both ABC and their delivery company AM Home Delivery. I called and spoke to Al who dismissed the bad reviews and said he couldn't cancel the order because it had already been shipped. Was supposed to take 5-7 business days to deliver but because of COVID we learned everything was taking an extra week. 19 days later, the TV arrived and it was everything that was promised. A very good 65" Oled TV. Several inquiries with ABC and AM were answered promptly and they were helpful in tracking down the order. I was grateful that in spite of all the bad reviews, I had a good experience.

Trash TV

ABC produces trash tv. Liberal nonsense parading as real journalism and pitiful tv shows with low quality.

Bait and switch tactics... ordered an LG 77" TV and was called and told that my TV was inferior to another model they were trying to push on me. They encouraged me to buy the other model which I didnt want to do. Asked them to cancel order and was hung up on. Called back, talked to manager and asked to cancel order... hung up on again. Canceled the sale with CC company. DONT ORDER FROM ABC TVs

I ordered a tv 6 business days ago, I only received an email after the order. So I called them up. Finally got a hold of them (located in Delaware). They said the order has been canceled because we did not get a shipment in, we will call you if and when they come in.
I asked are these TVs and components the same as if I were to buy directly from LG? Answer was Yes.
Poor Communications
#1 Why don't they update their website so that people don't order TVs that are not available. Isn't their a federal trade law about advertising where by the store must keep a certain level of inventory per ad?
#2 Why don't they send their customers and email after 2 days saying that your order cannot be processed, etc?
Great Business Model: We advertise TVs that we do not stock, that you may or may not receive, but there at a at a great price. Don't forget, If your order is canceled we will not inform you. We love customer complaints, phone calls, and bad reviews! Were here to waste your time and chit chat about your order. Have a nice day and shop with us again.

I ORDERED OLED65C8PUA. I even called them first, they said order can also be picked up but when busy season ends. In 1 wk.
3 days after ordering, they call me for $800 extra since the TV i ordered was commercial.
They said there were 2 TV's on their website. So what they did was, they added another TV on their website same model- stating OEM, then they called me saying there are 2 different TVs

This is a scam site
October 3, 2018

I called about purchasing an 82" Samsung TV. Their online price is $1,000 lower than the next best deal I could find. My Daddy always taught me that if it looks too good to be true, it probably is - so I called the number listed. It took forever to get someone on the phone because it's apparently a one man operation. I asked how he managed to sell at such a low price and his response was that he is a large operation that works on lower margins. BS! His price is WAY BELOW COST. The gentleman wanted me to place my order on line and said it would ship immediately. He said there were two in stock in Edison, NJ and offered free shipping. I offered instead if I could pick it up as Edison isn't that far. He attempted to talk me out of that, stating that if I picked up in NJ that I'd have to pay NJ sales tax. I agreed to pay sales tax and he gave me an address to go to. The address he provided was a vacant lot. That's kinda what I figured! I also suspect that whatever positive five star reviews you see on line, HE POSTED. Buyer Beware. If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Ordered an LG OLED TV online, got an email "please call us about your order" and the guy lied to me, tried to get me to believe the model # for the USA-version was really intended to be used as a display for airports, so the sound and brightness would not be good for watching movies at home. He tried hard to upsell me to a "better" version for $800 more. I refused, told him to send me the TV I ordered, at the price on the website, and (you guessed it) the TV never came because he'd lose money if he sold it that cheap. Waste of time and money.

Researched the LG OLED line and settled on the 77" C9 model. Searched MANY web sites for this exact unit and ABC TVs had it (at a ridiculously low price) but after ordering, they said that wasn't the OEM build and that the OEM build would be $1,000 more. Since I already knew that was coming (after reading the other reviews here) I agreed and I still got the lowest price available from all retailers and the TV came two weeks later. Just exactly what I wanted and at the correct price. So, just remember there isn't such thing as OEM build and you will be just fine with these people (not sure why they feel they need to bait people this way).

Thank you Jack
March 5, 2019

I was looking on-line for a specific SAMSUNG 55 inch tv. After reviewing many sites, I found abctvs.com. They were the lowest price by approx $300. Since I never ordered from them, I decided to call instead of placing an order. I reached a sales person by the name of Jack. I wanted to make sure there were no hidden charges like some other company do by charging you insurance after you place the order. Jack stated no hidden charges and free delivery. Samsung had three TVs that appear to be the same TVs and yet a consumer magazine rated all three TVs. When I spoke to Jack, there was a fourth TV that was the newer model and said it would cost me an additional $100 if I wanted to order. He also stated that TV sells for much more. I checked and he was correct. That TV had a much higher price. But the TV I wanted had the features so I stayed with the original. The TV was delivered with 5 days and in perfect shape. I greatly appreciate working with Jack and will recommend abctvs to friends and family.

BAIT AND SWITCH
December 19, 2018

I ordered a TV from this site earlier this month. I called several times to make sure my order was okay. The guy I spoke with said that the order was fine and that my TV should be shipping any day, this went on for 17 days. On the last call I was told that the model I ordered was a "commercial model" and that I wouldn't be able to use it like a residential TV in my house. Their website says absolutely nothing about this in the product description, but he did point out to me that there's another listing for considerably more with "RESIDENTIAL PANEL" in the description. He then tried to sell me that TV instead.

After voicing my frustration, I cancelled the order. I'm not sure what the difference would be between the two versions. The product description and model # I ordered was exactly the same when viewed on other web sites. THIS WAS A TEXTBOOK BAIT AND SWITCH.

My order
November 29, 2019

I ordered a Sony XBR series 85 inch, I had an awesome price they wanted to tack on an extra shipping charge, I refused. Two days later I went online to check o the status and the sale was canceled no email, no phone call nothing THE PRICE WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE! IT SEEMS THAT THIS RETAILER LIKE OTHER RETAILERS EITHER TRY TO TACK ON EXTRA CHARGES OR THEY THEY DO A BAIT AND SWITCH AND IF THEY CANT DO EITHER, THEY WILL CANCEL THE SALE, STAY AWAY FROM SMALL ONLINE RETAILERS THAT OFFER TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE PRICING!

I purchased the 85 inch Sony Bravio, when I placed the order they called to verify what I wanted in the TV. There is more to it than you know and they were very transparent and explained the difference. It was a brand new TV and was about 25% lower cost than what I could find elsewhere and with no tax and shipping included it was a great price! It took 8 days from the date I ordered for it to be delivered but it was worth the wait due to quality of ABCTV customer service and the price. I highly recommend this company and would suggest to any one looking for a large TV or electronic to check out ABCTV!

Liar and scam site.
September 18, 2018

I ordered a Tv 12 days ago per their advertisement in the Internet. They send me a confirmation email for model number and my cost, I never got my tv, I emailed them twice and no response, I called and talked to jack and he told me that the TV I had ordered is not residential TV and it is for commercial. I did not believe him what he said, I called to Sony tech support and they told me that they are laying, both of are them the same, ABCTVS is a scam and they lie to the customer, beware and do not buy any product from this site..
