Yep, there's a place here in town that had one of the Sharp 45" panels
mounted about 6' high. It's a place that charges insane amounts for
anything they sell, and their labor is sky high too. I would have doubts
about hiring them if I came in there and saw that panel way up there.
I about passed out when I went in and asked them what they wanted for a
wall bracket. $399.95 for the exact same mount I bought for $50,
including ****pping, on ebay was just ridiculous. The only difference was
the colors on the box were reversed, and the name was altered a little.
Even had the same horrible photocopied instruction sheet, complete with
the funny English translation.
