I’m starting to not trust HSN. The LG 55UB8300 tv at today’s value is not a "new" tv. I tried to research it and it only comes up in Asia, and has older specs than the LG TVs currently available on Amazon. For example, compared to Amazon LG 55UB8500 model, the one here only has a 3X engine Vs current 4X engine, 4HDMI vs. 3HDMI, etc. In the end, probably worth the special value of $1499, but it’s not "new" and it’s not a "great" deal. Shame on you HSN, I’m going to think twice about what I buy there.

This IS a 2014 model, wasn’t even on their website till this week. LG lists a usb 3.0 on this model. The forum won’t allow a link, just google the model number now and the LG page will be one of the first. (Or just goto lg.com and search there)

Mine is coming tomorrow. Gift for my boyfriend. I looked up the stats. They are not sold in United States. It’s the 8300, not the current 8500 or the better, 9500. I’m wondering if I made a mistake. It’s NOT a good deal. The much better 8500 is $100 more, the super 9500 is $400 more. 8300 has standard usb ports, other models have 2.0 and 3.0, wi-fi, etc.

I agree. Two months ago I purchased a 70" Sharp from HSN and found out after mulitple picture quality issues that it was a year old model. I was promised the option to return it by a supervisor, (Nicholas), and when I attempted the return the decision was over ridden by higher management. The reason… Nicholas was incorrect! Sorry.
Shame on HSN! Mis representing product and service. Buyers be cautious. Bottom line …I’m Stuck with a $2,300.00 tv that is still not functioning. Any bets HSN still deducts the value pays? How’s that for "value"?
Much less trusting of HSN now!
