hey all, i have this 12kp4a RCA crt that is a NOS and was missing the dag because of it being stored in a damp location but i since replaced the dag. it measures 600 on the bk 440 crt tester well into the good zone as well as other test functions are perfect. question here is what this tube is worth as i am thinking of posting it on ebay. another thing is i really dont want to ship it for fear of it getting broken in shipment so if i list it i will probably take a chance with the pick up only option. unless someone here may be interested because i thought about holding on to it for a possible future project but i really like the round color sets better.

Nice dag replacement.

they can be boxed and shipped if done right and will make it much easier to sell.

You just need to try and duplicate the normal orig CRT boxing with the hash tag looking neck protection, then double box with correct cushioning material on all sides. New quality boxes of course.

Yes, nice looking application.

If you are trying to sell it on eBay as NOS, a lot of people won't be convinced it is truly NOS without the warranty tags and a brand matching box and date code. Could be a tough sell, or go for far less than it's worth. And then you have all their fees to pay.

I'd try as Dave suggested. Build a sturdy container, and then try to sell it in the classifieds here.

if you want to guarantee finding a local tv, sell the CRT you have, then the next day a set will show up at your front door needing a CRT.

If you really want to sell this set by eBay, the shipping will kill us..:no:
