People still try to sell those 300 pound TVs from the 90s. There is no way I would go into their house to lift that huge TV up so I can put in my house. I love the fact that I no longer have to use a dolly to move my TV. I can now carry it with one hand. 😂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's crazy someone would still want one. Glad you were able to get rid of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Uncle Buck 3,301 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I had a huge one of those old TV's. It was a 65 incher. It was beastly heavy, and I was very grateful to find someone who would take it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glad you were able to get rid of it. the capacitors and CRT's inside those old tube TV's are worth something if you know what you are doing. also can kill you pretty quickly if you don't know what you are doing....

y*so*blu 1,349 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 My grandparents had this huge, impossibly heavy TV in their basement. Grandpa bought it as a retirement present for himself in the early 90s. According to him, it was one of the first big-screen models ever released. I have no idea what happened to it. I imagined it being immovable, like Stonehenge. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
