So he shows up and advertised looks great, little old man probably 65 ish. We plug it in and it turns on. Really bright fuss with nothing plugged in. So I plug my HDMI into it and still fuzz. The old man was puzzled. I am a pretty good read of people so I think he was for real. So out of morbid curiosity I plug it into my RCA cables and boom it works fine. The picture was pretty good really but not HDMI. I really think that this guy was taken. No doubt a scam like it said but I don't think he knew any better himself.

Moral to the story always post on the mane. I figure someday someone on here will invent the cure to aids, cancer and world starvation.

Thanks again for bailing my ass out.

I wondered if it wasn't a second hand scam. Hope the old guy didn't get soaked too badly.
