A Home Depot deal? A Buy.com deal? Haven't we learned anything about these places from Consumerist?

Oh, go easy on him, these stories don't just happen by themselves. Ben just needs more victims so he has more posts to fill up the site with, that's why he's urging you to those disreputable blackguards for your daily deal fix.

Olevia may be a newer brand, but I recommend it. I bought two of them and they're pretty good. For the two I bought, I would've only gotten one "big name" brand. Just don't expect to find a universal remote that can power it on or off.

@Optimistic Prime: buy a learning remote, so that it can pick up the factory remotes signal. I love my Olevia tv, hate the remote that came with it with a passion, very unresponsive. Programmed my learning remote, it works 2x as well.

@Optimistic Prime: And some, like the kameleon's, can be upgraded over the phone. You just call the customer service center, and they have you hold the remote to the phone, and it upgrades it.

isn't olevia that tv brand for lesbians?

@muckpond: don't quit your day job, if you actually have one.

@muckpond: Is your mom named Olevia?

Yeah, um, I see at least three companies up there that haven't exactly won the hearts of Consumerist readers and writers.

What's the deal, Ben?
