Most ETF meets have at least one for sale. If you don't live in good TV hunting grounds you will either have to journey there or have a set shipped to you...

You MISSED a CTC-16 or 20 roundie...for 20 BUCKS... at the swap meet..with a GREAT TUBE !! And...one with NO cataracts either !!!!!!

I'm looking for a nice color roundie too. RCA Victor, Zenith, Sylvania, or GE. Anywhere near Alabama.

I have a bunch-20 something. Will be ready to sell some this winter.
I-30 or I-20 makes it easy to get here for both of you.

Got any with metal tubes?

TUD1 10-07-2015 06:30 PM
El Predicta - Awesome! Can you post some pictures to show you what I'm looking for? Maybe around December, we can make a deal.

Here, and various Craiglist ads members post on here.. If you don't mind paying a mover.. Even got one off eBay.. I'm in the same boat as you.. Roundies don't usually pop up locally...

TUD1 10-07-2015 07:42 PM
Here are a couple of samples
 
This is the general idea of what I'm looking for.

I have a metal cabinet CTC-11 console (easily converted to table model) and a CTC-15 in a nice wood cabinet, both working, available for pick up in MD.

TUD1 10-07-2015 10:45 PM
If you were closer to me, I'd jump on that deal. But I just don't have the time or money to go to Maryland. :no:

pac.attack76 10-08-2015 07:34 AM
I could swear i said "i was looking for one". I don't appreciate my thread being hijacked. If someone has one close to me, let me know. I'm looking for a floor model console.

Post free ads where ever you can. Most the time people have
to pay to junk a set and if they cant move it them self pay
more to get it picked up. Usually folk like to see the old set
saved not junked. Go to yard sales especially ones in old
parts of town & places with junk in the yard. ASK if they have
anything. Last you are going to have to sort through a lot of the
wrong stuff as most folks havnt seen a roundy for almost 50 yrs.
if ever ! & dont give up.
