priceses dropping?

It's interesting to see no one's bidding yet. Are the prices for these sets dropping? Wrong color, unknown status of electronics, weird "fire sale" of set all of a sudden that's been sitting around for years. The only thing these people know is that they want $2K and need it moved in less than a week. Sounds like a dream to me.

Many people use esnipe or similar software to place a bid in the last few seconds of an auction.

The cabinet color should not be a huge negative. Toning lacquer is cheap.

I only mentioned it so that people don't get the idea this is a common cabinet color (or good refinishing practice). If you're going to refinish a cabinet, why not make it look authentic? In the overhead view, looking down at the CRT, you can see the original color on the inside edge.

prices dropping?

talked to a contact today about the ct100. They were honest when talking about the set.At some point, one tube was replaced w/ a diode. Turning on the set recently caused the diode to melt and liquify. A proper replacement tube was used and no HV present. The FBT has bad arcing out of the side of it now to the HV reg. tube. IS there anyone with ANY spare FBT for these sets? New or used.
