The most I ever paid for an 80s Zenith was 20$ at a thrift store (for a 25" 1983 metal cabinet table top set with the space commander), and I remember almost not getting it, but I'm happy I got it, I watch it all the time, I'm watching it right now. It has been developing a bit of a minor problem lately though, the picture always has a bit of snow in it, even if I'm watching a DVD, but it's really only noticible when the picture is black or dark, but with what little I know about solid state sets I don't think I will mess with it unless it gets worse.
Well, it seems like the people selling the set were kind of snooty, saying they have a 19 inch LCD monitor and all. I think they deserved it. As to System 3's, I keep my eyes open for them on curbs since I have one myself as a daily watcher.
