I love the tv. On some sites the remotes price at, on average, $25 to $30. That seems high especially since that's almost the price of the tv. I don't need a new remote but it has to work. |

The guy on chat told me it will work for my Sony tv. When I looked around the prices were high---extremely high, like in the hundreds. This one is new, still in the package. I'm going to recheck to see if it's the right one. |
