    I'm not sure where to purchase screws that will fit my for my TV stand. It was a refurbished TV from Walmart. Walmart says to call LG, LG says I have to pay for the screws myself. :rolleyes:

    If you can get the sizes etc, you can go to home depot or lowes and get them cheap.

    I'd say: (1) look for specs or product details in the owner's manual or manufacturer's website for the size of the screws. (2) Go to Home Depot to pick up, or search on Amazon.

    If its a 40" or smaller, get one of the light duty mounts instead of one of those expensive hi tech swivel ones.

    I got one at wal mart for about 20 bucks that basically works like hanging a picture. You just drill these 2 small caps into the back of the tv and then drill 2 small metal mounts into your wall and the tv just sits on the mounts. You can easily take off if needed and puts minimal holes in your wall.

    Buy a bunch machine screws at a hardware store, see what fits, and return what you don't need.

    This, can get full swivel mount for cheap and good quality. I mean vs local.

    As mentioned... Other option is to get screw sizes, hell depending on size just bring it with you, lol. It's pretty easy to get screws at Lowes/HD

    I'm gonna laugh when you buy a refurbished wall mount and it's missing parts.

    :grin:

    Ok, kidding... I'll be sad. :(
