Just one more reason I sure hope Best Buy never comes to North Bay or to Canada on my watch. There's already enough problems right here in good ol' Ontario with these so-called E-waste recyclers which I totally despise as a vintage TV collector myself.
To VK members that do have E-waste recyclers in their respective areas-
Get involved and place an ad on Craigslist, your local classifieds, etc, that you're looking for vintage TVs. In your ad, politely advertise you're looking for vintage TVs, include your phone number as well as your email. It works, I have found over 15 vintage TVs in North Bay and area with my ad on our Kijiji here in Canada. Get to know people in your area as well and ask them about vintage TVs as well as word-of-mouth also works. Also, check out any electronics repair places as well and politely ask them about vintage TVs as well. It's always an awesome thing to be at least 1 or 2 steps ahead of E-waste recyclers as you will really reap the awesome rewards of finding those vintage TVs before they do:-)
Some very helpful advice to be well ahead in the vintage TV/electronics game in you're area-you will be glad you did:-)
Happy vintage TV hunting to all:-)
