No, but I did get a 3D bluray player for half price, after the fad died. Plays 2d blurays great.

Didn't buy one myself, but had access to one for a while. Was a cool gimmick but not really that appealing as a regular thing.

Yes. Still have my 4k LG 3D TV. Wish they still made them, would've been cool to have a newer OLED 3D TV.
LG made them, but OLED's were in their infancy.
2021-22 OLED w/3D would really pop, picture-wise.

I saved a ton of money and got a 1D TV instead. Lol @ suckers paying for the 2nd dimension that they don't even need.

Kinda wanted one but was gonna wait for a deep price drop. Then the concept died, so I never did.

My Samsung plasma is a 3D TV, but I almost never use that functionality. The thing about 3D TVs was they were also the best 2D TVs at the time.

It's kind of a shame they got rid of that functionality because 4K solved one of its biggest issues. If you were using a 3D TV with passive glasses you were limited to 720p resolution in 3D. If your 3D TV had active 3D glasses it could do 3D in 1080p , but your glasses required power and the shutter of the glasses made some people sick. A 4K TV could do 1080p in 3D with passive glasses thanks to its screen resolution.

The real gimmick was curved TVs. At least 3D doesn't ruin your viewing experience since you didn't need to use it. A curved TV is going to have that stupid curve forever.

I got one, not for the 3D itself, but for the higher refresh rate it supported.

But i am going full hog on those paper thin tvs in the coming years.

No. There never was enough content for them to justify it.

I did play around with some anaglyph 3D video games though. It was alright.
