If you are away from the country less than 90 days, then you get $ 125 worth items purchased outside the duty free shops in SL(lets say you bought the TV in Dubai) or $187 if you purchased anything from duty free in SL. Rest all same as this, just change the values as seen in my post.

Look IMO, this wont be a big issue. Just talk to the custom guys and tell them the TV is used.
