I keep getting them due to my work-on-anything reputation: I get a call from someone with "an old tv" and I cannot ask too many questions, just go and look only to find something much newer than imagined. Usually I end up taking it just because I don't want to miss that rare call for the real antique set.
Within a week, I got a 1980 Zenith, 1984 Zenith and 1986 Zenith, all great-working 19" color sets and then gave them all away.

I did the same thing awhile back. We had planned on moving and i condensed my collection. gave away over 10 sets including a 86 Zenith console, a couple 88 model Zenith sets and some 86-87 models. Several weeks later, the idiot posts them on the internet for free saying for parts or whatever. I message him figuring i could get them back. He then tells me that all of them have been sitting in the rain and the big Zenith had the back off and they kicked the back of the tube off.
