I sold used sets right up until I closed my store (1998). At that time, you couldn't give away a tube type TV, but a decent looking 19" would bring about $40, or if it was a cable ready, remote control model the price might go up to about $60. A console would fetch about $80 (if the cabinet was in good shape).

It's amazing how cheap things got as the 80's and 90's progressed. In 1988, I charged $40 for a "Clean-Lube-and Adjust" repair job on a VCR....in 1998 you could buy a new VCR for about $50.
