Thumb Score: +4 At $151 discount from Costo's new, this seems like a bargain. You don't get Costco's return policy, but the seller has 369k 99.9% positive rating, and includes a 1 year seller backed warranty. A good alternative if you want to save vs new. I'll be returning a tx-sr494 i purchased during the holidays since this is a big upgrade and costs less than what i paid.
