I know I'm going to tick people off on this post..... I love OLD tv's., just like you guys do. I like to tinker,collect, whatever. But......in my opinion, just like ALL collectables, they are only worth what someone will pay. eBay is not a standard of pricing something by any means. But to most people, old tv's (especially consoles) are worthless, and in alot of cases they are. I'm glad that we all like them and keep them around, as they are rarer then the zillions of old radios that are still sitting around. But to expect a high price out of one is crazy. You can try...... but one would think on your 3rd or 4th listing that that wouldn't happen. I'm sure the seller is nice, but it just ANNOYS me when someone lists an auction like this. Also, from the screen pics it looked like the vertical was "off" (probably an adjustment or module) but it wasn't pristine by any means. I've worked in the auction business, and in a consignment / thrift store and the worst people to deal with are the ones that think just because something was expensive and they paid alot 10 years ago, that they should get the same today. I really loved when people would try to bring in their old 486's. We'd tell em to hit the door, because it costs too much in trash fee's to fill our dumpster. Anyway...... I hope this tv does get a good home, and that the seller will recoup some of his money on OTHER items.
