22" Dynex and 32" Westinghouse flat panel TV's

[radiotvnut]

Today, I was given two flatscreen TV's by a friend, who got them from the estate of a friend of his who passed away.

The Dynex is from 2010 and all I know about the brand is that it was sold by Best Buy. I have no idea who made it. As far as the picture quality, it's not overly impressive; but, if I had no TV to watch, I'd be happy with it. In fact, I think my 1984 Zenith 19" has better color than this set. A while back, I had a similar Dynex that looked the same way.

The other one is a 32" Westinghouse from 2018 and he said that it was bought not long before his friend passed away. I know that it's Westinghouse in name only and I don't know who actually made it. As far as the picture, it looks a lot better than the Dynex.

Right now, they are stashed in the closet for back up, in case one of the flat screen TV's in the house takes a dump. I suppose I could try to sell them; but, when one can buy a low end 32" TV for under $100, I don't think these would bring much, if I could even sell them. A while back, I had an LG that was very similar to the 22" Dynex. I couldn't even get $25 for it and I ended up giving it to one of the flea market guys.

A couple of years ago, the guy at the pawn shop told me that he would not take any TV that was over 2 years old and they had to be a smart TV. He said that people would not buy non-smart TV's or those that were older than a couple of years old.

Things have sure changed since the days when we could drag home just about any old clunker TV, fix it up, and someone would buy it.
