Maybe it's just the Costco models are inherently cheaper/different. I know they carry store specific budget models that most other retailers don't touch or get.
I'm starting to think this as well. It seems highly illogical, but I don't understand why I continue to get defective panel after defective panel. I waded through the terrible drivers to check out what they had on the floor (again), and it is slim to none. Seems I have tried every model they have in my price range.

Thankfully, most of the electronic stores in Red Deer are huddled together on the south end so I was able to check out a few stores. There are some nice deals, but again not a whole bunch in my price range.

I appreciate everyone's virtual support and I don't want to drone on and on about my decision process and bad luck. All I can say is that as a gamer I am too paranoid about plasma, and too paranoid about Costco. I'm going to take this Samsung back after the weekend. If I can afford an additional in-store warranty I will get one, otherwise I am not going to worry too much about it at this point.
