Early color TVs were a major purchase, like a car. I have seen a 1957 dealer ad that offered 3-year financing for a new RCA color TV. They also offered to pay original list price for most trade-ins. In 1957, the price of a low-end color set had been brought down to $495, but that was still a lot of money for the average person.
