Definitely wouldn't suggest the 8000. Actually have it sitting here for the second of video tests for another HDR primer video and its light pillaring, bad local dimming, and so forth just don't make it worth it compared to the nicer tech coming soon. If we were swimming in media maybe. But better tech is coming. Still ok if you want to say your doing HDR and just can't wait at all for better tv's because you will be doing HDR.
If your set on it, the numbers of returns is high and you can probably get one cheap on Amazon from their warehouse. This one here was 999 for a 65 inch. Prices come and go as folks get and return them.
Then again I am playing games on them and not just movies and that display IS different at times especially with stationary center mass focusing and such(characters right in the center never moving but the land does).
Also was astonished at how bad the light pillar was in Batman today. Got it to go away but by then a good deal of the improved picture(of course none HDR) was gone. Just no reason to cheap out.

Thanks that's mine.Suggested viewing before you decide whether or not to spend the cash on it.
i think i'll wait to see if next year they'll have a better solution w/ full array.
