I have been in the process of getting rid of my less desireable sets. I have a smaller house, so most are in the basement, which at least has a vent I keep open year round for climate control.
Upstairs I rotate out 2 sets as daily watchers, and my current ones are a
25" System 3 Space phone console and a 19" Space Phone set.

In the basement are:
1965 Zenith Roundie
1965 Sylvania Roundie
1964 RCA CTC-16
1975 23" Chromacolor 2
1697 Magnavox console
1966 21" Admiral mini console
1984 19" Sony Trinitron
1971 19" Zenith 4 tube hybrid
1970's 13" Toshiba (the one that is on a swivel base)
1977 13" Coronado (rebadged Toshiba)
1972 13" Hitachi
1970's RCA 13" CTC-53
GE Portacolor (not sure of the year)

B&W Sets are:
1949 Motorola
1949 Delco
1951 Westinghouse
1967 9" RCA Solid State
1977 Zenith 9"
1970's K-Mart 13"

3 Sets I've adopted out are:
1979 25" Magnavox console
1975 17" Sony
1979 Zenith System 3 Space Command with Zoom
1980 Zenith 25" Space Command table-top set with the factory cart

I'm sure there are a few others I've missed, but that's most of it. I rarely see any tube stuff at estate sales anymore.
The only 2 sets I regret getting rid of are my RCA CTC-31 remote table-top set (but it went to a fellow AK'er) and a RCA CTC-16 with a black Matrix 21FJ in it.
