This does not exactly answer your original question, but as far as "most money spent" on a TV, I do recall seeing a GE mirror in lid set (i think it was from 1939) that was listed on ebay several years ago... it was a beautiful set... the cabinet was awesome... and I recall the highest bid was around 11 grand.

At the time of the auction, condition of the insides was not known, but it did look complete. Seems I recall there were comments about the set later... that it turned out to be okay after the innards were gone thru.

I think I still have a photo of it from the auction (at home, not with me now).

I would think a few others around here might remember the set I am speaking of.

I'm sure that at some point, more money has been laid out for a vintage set, but, that's the most I can remember seeing being spent for the public to see.
