The 55" LG I purchased at Costco for less than $400 a couple of years ago works great and I've never connected it to the internet.

[edit] looked it up, it's this one: https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-55UM7300AUE-4k-uhd-tv

Of course, who knows if they've since updated the OS and make it impossible to use without establishing a network connection..

I have a C1 from a few years ago and a C2 from a few months ago, and they both work perfectly offline.
C1 owner never internet
I too have a LG C1 55" from Costco but it did have a few nag screens to connect to the internet during setup. I ignored those and eventually an image appeared on HDMI 1 but the process wasn't really clear. That's my recollection.
