Screen replaced, TV was turned on after replacement just once to test. Still has plastic film on screen from factory.
Comes with genuine LG brand new remote. Also comes with a brand new aftermarket stand. Original LG stand is available to purchase for around $180 from the supplier. If you want to wall mount then won’t require the stand.
$1450, offers welcome though.

$1300? Surprised no interest. Is it because of the aftermarket stand or older model? Screen is new though and most likely it's a newer generation panel LG has installed.

I'd have been likely to have bought it if you'd lived closer to where I live (PN) or there had been a safe and affordable way to get it down here.

My biggest issue would have been with the magic remote, which my family hates on our current LG!

I have another spare standard remote which works with the unit that I’m happy to throw in. That’s good to know but without original box I don’t think it’s safe to ship unless someone going to PN from Auckland.

Maybe you can plan a weekend trip. I’ve dropped the price which should cover some petrol cost. 😃

What was the reason for needing to replace the screen? Was it burn in?

Possibly because it's a (shudder) "smart" TV :-).

Well that’s the risk you take for enjoying true blacks on OLEDs. Even C1 gets burn in if Netflix screen with logo or any other content with static image left for a long time. Once you are aware you take precaution & burn in shouldn’t occur.

Yeah, the problem is by the time I paid for fuel plus found a place to stay o/n I'd be looking at quite a bit of time and additional cost; given that, I'm happy to pay the extra for a new 65" Panasonic OLED ($2094), given it's fully warrantied and hopefully has better anti-burn-in tech. (Do you know what caused your burn-in, BTW?)

Netflix logo was the main culprit on this TV. As far as I’m aware even Panasonic & newer LG OLEDs can get burn in. It’s best not to leave on the Netflix screen that shows logo or watch channels with logo for a very long time like CNN.
I think this is still a very good deal. Where do you see Pana 65” OLED for $2094??
I thought you could do PN to AK same day return. I understand it’s too much effort for just a TV.

Yeah, as mentioned if it didn't come with the extra cost and hassle I would seriously think about buying it, but not with that. And I wouldn't consider 12.5 hours of driving time in one day a particularly healthy or risk-free activity!

Panasonic's current lineup has slotted in a new model below the previous base model (still numbered '1000'), the JZ980 - https://pricespy.co.nz/product.php?p=5906499
