The low entry price targets gamers and families seeking an oversized viewing experience without the usual premium cost.

The steep discount aligns with a weekend sales window, suggesting further promotional activity before the holiday season.
Market observers will watch whether the price pressure prompts broader price adjustments or shifts in consumer preference toward Costco’s exclusive offering.
