Before I opened this thread, I had a sneaky suspicion that you brought home a '90's Zenith TV. One of the flea market vendors that I deal with brought over such a set and said it didn't work and I could have it for $5. I told him I didn't want it, PERIOD.
I can tell you from much experience that you can never bank on what the owner says about it having a "good picture". I've heard this time and time again only to see sets with horrible pictures. I've had sets for sale with not-so-great pictures that the buyer would jump all over; despite the fact that they could have bought a much better set for just a little more money. My friends in the TV repair business tell me that they never adjust the picture unless the customer request that they do so. They said that too many times, they've adjusted a customer's TV for a proper picture, just to have them raise sand and talk about how bad it now looks.
