is my tv worth anything?

hello

I have in older wood panel TV made by electrocolor. I need the rid of it. It works great & has good color. I'm just looking for opinions if this might be worth anything, I plan to sell it or get rid of it locally. Just curious.

Thanks.

It looks nice, these types of sets usually bring in 15-25$ Welcome to the forum.
I'm trying to figure out who actually made it? It looks familiar, Toshiba possibly?? It has that look of a Japanese set.

Arigatou! (Thanks!) Electrohome was a passing thought but it just looks Japanese to me. I'm not familiar with these newer Electrohome sets at all. The name on the front basically told me what it was.....duh! Electrohome Electrocolor.......hmmmm I've got too much on my mind these days.


EDIT: I just looked it up, Mitsubishi made tons of stuff for them at that time. But you say yours is an '80, they say in '84 Mitsubishi took over making the tvs.......Confused again:3 It still looks like a jap set

Electrohome was huge in Canada, but they never made it to the US. Where are you located, anyway?
