Well I can clear the air about this TV once and for all! I went to the local Goodwill store today (and while I was there I saw a lot of electronic goodies there for once including a Zenith DTV Converter box that was brand new in its original box never opened for $15, I also saw a DVD/VCR Combo unit which was an early one that had the NTSC Tuner built into it for recording over the air, I also saw 2 first Generation DVD players, a DVD Hometheather in a box unit minus the original speakers, a Sony Prosumer grade 4-Head HiFi VCR that had the VCR Plus+ cable box controller system built in and shuttle jog and some other stuff (I only had $14 to spend on me) so I ended up getting an old 1960s vintage Timex Electric alarm clock for 99 cents and after I went up to pay for the alarm clock I told the woman at the counter that I wanted to make a $5 donation to them which she acted kind of surprised about that, almost as if she never gets people offering donations to them very often, and then I explained to her why I was giving the donation to which she replied "Oh don't worry about it, the TV would of more than likely been thrown out anyways since we don't take TVs anymore and don't put them out on the floor anymore, but if we would of been still putting TVs out on the floor then that would of been another story, but since we don't sell them or take them anymore you're fine". To which I had explained to her that if they would of still been selling and taking TVs yet I wouldn't of taken it but since I knew you guys weren't taking tvs anymore I kind of figured you guys wouldn't of minded if I would of hauled off the TV for you.
So There you have it, from goodwill themselves, its ok to take a CRT TV from the Donation bin area if there's one that was dumped out in front of the donation bin area, you don't even have to give them a donation for it.
