A good number of thrifts I recall going to in Fl back when I lived there EVEN before the DTV transition seemed to never have video related electronics...Or much of anything that did not relate to food preparation.
Up here there are anywhere from 1/2-3 dozen VCRs and at least two CRT tvs at any given thrift shop. This time of year they get a lot of TVs, and the price drops to .49-.99$ for most of them...Though I've seen them going for that price other times of the year in the last year or so, thus I see a trend forming.
I live in the 'radio belt' as fellow antique radio collectors call it, a place where historically the vast majority have had the funds to purchase electronics over the years...Even into today. This makes the acquisition of anything vintage and electronic practically a matter of looking. ...Heck tube radio consoles even show up at thrifts here on a semi-regular basis.
