Valuable and "Ancient" 12" B&W TV

Well guess what turned up on evilbay? How about an "ancient" 12" B&W TV with a starting bid of over $300!! It is also located in England and guess what the shipping is? The same price of over $300!
A 12" click stop tuner TV is still plentiful around here in thrift stores for about $3 or less but being a PAL set must make it valuable.(?) Looks like the carrying handle is also missing so that's one ugly set that won't be coming over here!

Maybe I should start hoarding them with all the rest of my stuff! Lord, please tell me my B$W 12" TV's are worth over $1000 each! Please! Please!! Please!!!

It could very well be a 405 line set, as I believe Brittan kept 405 monochrome arround untill around 1983.

Wow, my 1961 RCA B&W 19" set in aqua and white must be worth, what, at least $475.00, based on a price of $25.00/inch?
