I probably wouldn't buy an open box TV. I guess it's a little bit better that it's been protected by the plastic as you mention, but it's been on for quite a bit of time.

However, if you REALLY want this TV, and the price is good enough for you, then go for it. You mentioned that there's no new ones anywhere else so I'm going to go out on a limb and say that it's probably discontinued. If $150 off is all they are going to give you as a discount, then I'd probably try hit them up for the extended warranty for free as part of the deal. It costs them virtually nothing, and saves you a few bucks plus you have the peace of mind that it's got a longer warranty.
