Yep , for some reason the myth of those little console looking TVs being a "Salesman Sample" was really pervasive for a while and every so often someone still does advertise one as such on Ebay . I knew right from the beginning of that "Urban Myth" that it was false , Back when console sets were popular there were exactly 0 people going door to door selling TVs ! Now people selling "Rainbow" Vacuum cleaners and Encyclopedias , oh yea once a week at least they'd be ringing the doorbell , but from my earliest recollections TVs were sold in specialty TV stores and then later in places like Sears , and never door to door .....
