If you have any old crt tube styled tvs that are 19 inch (yes, has to be 19 inch model measured diagonally or usually has a 19 in the model number) and you don't want them then please shoot me a message before taking them to a dump etc. I'll take them for free or pay a few bucks for them. Let me know what you think is reasonable if you wanted to sell them. The old 80's fake wood paneled tvs are the best for my needs but I would like any.
At the moment no Sony's please...
I would be using these to take apart and remove the actual tubes from them to use as replacements for my arcade machines that don't work or have bad screen burn. Half the tv's I get likely won't be a match and I'll have to take them to a recycling center, dump, or goodwill.
If you know of any friends looking to ditch their tvs then please let them know about me. I'd be happy to pass on my email address.
Thanks!

I have an RCA color trac that is 19 inch you can have. Works fine.
Another great day in the adventure of exploration and sight.

JLS, I have an old 19" Magnavox and the picture tube just went out. You want it, you can have it. Let me know.
If JLS doesn't want it does anyone else want it for parts?

camay2327... the tube is the part I need. What's it doing to make you say it's bad? No picture but sound? Darkened picture? Rainbowing?
Thanks!

Sorry Folsom500. I still hope to get your tv. I've been very tied up with things but I'll message you as soon as I can to verify it's still available and I can pick it up...camay2327... the tube is the part I need.

JLS the last I saw was a small white dot in the center of the tv, no sound or anything.
I assumed the picture tube. You can have it if you want it.
