What is up with TV's being so expensive in Korea. Smh
Where would be the best place to buy a TV at? Electronic area in Seoul or Gmarket?
Looking at Gmarket seems I am looking at atleast 250 for a 32'. Maybe try to find a used 37-40' in Seoul would be the best bet. |

Off brand stuff is cheaper on G-market/ 11th Street and similar sites. Remember that there is a markup on just about everything on the English side of the website, flip it to Korean to see the real price.
Also, if you dont want to buy used you can usually haggle down the price of a TV at the brick and mortar stores (samsung, LG, HIMART etc) if you bring in a printout of the g-market price. |

Wonder what a used 40 inch would cost.
New one online for 350. Its a shame you can get 40' LED in USA for 250. |

one - look in a korean ads magazine.
two - go to one of those second hand places that are stocked full of fridges, fans tvs etc. Itll cost you about 40-50,000.
three- place an add on fb asking for a tv.
Four - buy a second hand computer monitor and hook it up to your computer |

Looking for a 40inch flat screen to hook up to my laptop and for playing ps4.
Seems as though the cheapest new one will run about 350,000. If I could find a used one for 300,000 or lower that'd be great. |

Check out 중고나라 if you can read Korean. It's the biggest site for used stuff. |
