We have Costco here in Can. ( I heard they are a derivitive of Sams Club, but can't confirm it) anyway, all their large TV's or stereo equip. has model #'s exlusive to Costco. You can't really compare it to the stereo or electronics shops, even though the model #'s are similar and they appear the same, you just don't know? In most cases, Costco buys the equipment with the clause that they handle the warranty, not the manufacturer. Similar to OEM computer equipment, the manufacturer only covers the first 30 days. After that it's up to the vendor to offer longer warranties if they want ?
Not sure if this is what your encountering, but it sounded so similar that I thought I'd pass it along.
