Something I posted about last year-I was pulling into the parking lot of Goodwill just as another guy left. He had dropped off some things, including a pair of very clean 70s color portables. (a 19" Sony and a 13" CC2) I tried very hard to buy them but all the staff would tell me was that they had to be tested first and to come back later. I checked and checked but they never made it to the floor. I guess I should have demanded to see the manager. That was the last time I ever donated anything to that store. I have picked up a couple tube sets in recent years-an Airline 12" color hybrid (Taiwanese Admiral) at the Salvation Army and a late 60s 19" RCA color (forget the CTC #) at Goodwill. When I carried that one to the front the cashier said it must have been put out by mistake. Both of those sets worked fine.
