Cute little 9" CRT at Salvation Army
At the local Salvation Army they have a small 9" Dial Tuned CRT tv. Not sure of the brand (mabye Emerson), but it is part of the "Celebrity" model line (I'm assuming it was a basic line similar to "Zenith Custom Series". It had seperate VHF and UHF inputs with a 75ohm VHF input and a 300 ohm UHF input. Price tag of $5. Should I spring for it?

Regarding the price, if it's in perfect condition, go for it. :banana: |

I am very very tempted. If I were a single man I'd have a house full of tvs lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Depends on how well it matches your taste, and how much space you have. Knowing what you want and saving room for it is not a bad thing.

Being a niner it won't take over a room. Well, it would if you're spending some time in the dog house for bringing it home. :D In that case, cheap big screen!

Haha. I have my eyes on a few 80s vintage console sets that would be more worthwhile. I am tempted to buy a couple for a Mario Kart tournament that I am planning, then put them all in the garage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Now look at the name! It seems to be the most sought after and desired product line and the performance proves it. When that small B&W set was built, most any make stood up rather well. :scratch2: |

It was on the free pile, along with a 13" Zenith color portable and a 27" Zenith console color set. I only took the Chinese cheapie and the 13" System 3 portable. :yes: |

Shake, rattle and roll! Reminds me of a washing machine at my building, one of many units that have been through here since the GEs finally wore out. If a load was unbalanced even a little it would make a tremendous noise, meaning it was noisy all the time as it neared its demise. Two ladies overloaded it one day while I was down there. It shook violently, started moving away from the wall and finally blew off its front panel. Darn thing was still going after that and was quickly unplugged. |

My $20 Samsung Tracphone is just fine. My laundry equipment has always been Whirlpool. Good value for the money. I look at these fancy over priced products, when I'm at Menards or Home Depot and wonder why some people could spend that kind of money on extra features, they'll probably never use. :D |
