luckily this is just a 32; i had a 70 from the same brand with the same INSANELY FUCKING STUPID STAND DESIGN that i had to find something for…literally at the most extreme edges of the thing, what the fuck is this? this is so fucking stupid, it cannot be meaningfully cheaper than a proper design and it looks fucking dumb as hell and surely this has pissed off 90% of people that wanted a TV and want to put it on a little stand like a normal fucking person right??

    A center stand for a TV this size can be had for less than $25 retail price. If you call it a “monitor stand”, you can find one for $15 or less. That’s hardly “more than the TV itself”.

      It’s a 32" TCL. Those are like $130. We’re talking a 5-10% increase in price which definitely isn’t double, but it’s significant enough to dramatically affect sales.
