I personally abhor all flat screen sets and would not be caught dead with one.
When color TV really started selling in the mid-60's, I seen people trading in one or two year old B/W sets. Good sets, like 23" Zeniths and others. Back then, dealers took in trades. Once in a while, you could get a non-working roundie, anywhere from a CTC4 to a CTC11. Dealers, generally sold working color trades.
