Default Best place for a good deal on a TV in SoCal?

My TV just died out so I'm debating on whether to fix it or just pick up a new/used set. Not looking for anything in particular so if you know of some hole in the wall shop or if there's a great deal at some major retailer, let's hear it. Thanks

Haven't decided yet and no particular price range in mind since I'm just doing research at this point.

Current TV is a 32" CRT but if there's a really good deal on a plasma, then I'd consider it. At the price points I've seen, I probably won't go larger than a 42" plasma. If it's a CRT, I probably won't go larger than 36" so I can still use my current stand.

Can you tell I haven't started my research yet?

Looking more for a location at this point so I can walk in and see a few sets in person.

If you don't plan on HDTV, then I'd get a CRT.

If you don't plan on HDTV but need space, Plasma EDTV is for you. EDTV is 768P, and HDTV is 1080i or p.

You still have my screen right?

Seems like Plasma EDTV or CRT at this point from what you're saying since HD will probably be overkill for now.

Yes, I still have it!

I had a feeling you'd be interested when he mentioned Sony.

Do tell.
