I purchased an Apex digital 19" lcd TV-model LD1919 for $250.00 in August of 2008. In May of 2008 it has died. I called the company and they told me to send them the TV, pay them $50 and they will fix it. I checked the web and there are many, many owners of this same TV and model that have had the exact problem--some sooner and some on my time table.

This TV is obviously defective and Apex knows this. This model ld1919 should be recalled and Apex needs to take full responsibility for selling a product that breaks and then trying to charge the consumers for the labor in fixing a problem that should not have occurred.

I also think the EPA should get involved because these defective TV's will end up in landfills. I will not try and have it fixed so, that is where mine is going.

Shame on Apex for selling junk to make a quick buck. This same model is still for sale and I want to warn consumers NOT to buy them. They are now cheaper--but it's not worth owning junk even if it's free.
