Not able to decide on this 3D tv, help needed

I have LG 3D TV model LM6690 bought for around 78k in 2013.

It has developed horizontal lines a few months back and repair from LG may cost around 20to25K , if I am lucky to get the spares ( as per LG technician).

It's nice TV and exchange with new TV might fetch around 3to4k. The horizontal lines appear after 30 to 40 mins of watch.

I am not able to decide whether to exchange it as there are no 3D tvs now with passive 3d glasses. We occasionally enjoy 3d content may be 2 to 3 times in a year.

Should I wait until it dies and buy another one? Any place in india where I can buy such 3d panels for cheap. Not sure , if 3D is in the panel or hardware or some software. 

Pls pour in your thoughts with above points in mind like cost, 3d TV etc.

Sell it ASAP and get a MI/ VU TV with better specs. Had this same TV, got an exchange value of 12K on Flipkart during a sale and gave it to them.

Thought of. But inorder to buy they have to visit  my home. Assuming they liked and take it they will come to my home with sticks after watching horizontal lines smile. Too dangerous.

If I tell them upfront, they don't buy. Catch 22.

Hmm.. in exchange i may get 3.5k to 4k, if lucky more as well. However the olxions never pay above 2k that to he, for sure will be repairing technician 😄
