Most thrift shops in san diego have an ewaste pile that is picked up weekly. This is usually all the TVs and monitors that don't work or don't pass muster.
I was just about to leave one when I spotted two sets. One of which looks to be a late 50s RCA, the other a later 60s RCA. You can see the 60s RCA in another thread.
They of course wouldn't give them to me, however I was able to talk the floor manager into selling them to me for $10 each. Both a fairly beat, but hopefully don't have too much wrong that makes them unrepairable.
I haven't checked anything on either yet. At the moment I had to move quite abit around to squeeze them in the hosue.
