Ya- know When I worked at my first shop we did factory service for Sharp, and we use to drive down to Sharp-World in Paramus NJ to pick up and drop off the factory sets. We had a lot, but I don't remember seeing them in local stores.....

This was back around '81 - 85. I don't remember what Caldor sold, or any of the other local stores, back then dad got our tv's at Sears, we got lots of stuff at Sears.....
