I just think that, when it comes to a major purchase, I'd rather not go for the item from the store known for its discounts instead of its quality.

For the record, I have yet to see any of the high-quality brands at Wal-Mart. No Sharp, no Samsung, no Sony. I do have a $59 10'' Orion TV set up in my dorm room, though.

"For the record, I have yet to see any of the high-quality brands at Wal-Mart. No Sharp, no Samsung, no Sony."

Perhaps Wal-Marts' selections vary by location, but Wal-Mart carries those brands in my area, and also on-line.

From the Walmart.com site
1052 items found for “sharp”
50 items found for “samsung”
341 items found for “sony”
 
Wal-Mart sells whatever brands and SKUs its research has determined the most people want. They also sell it cheaper. The Samsung TV in my house came from there for about $30 less than any other retailer in the area.
