Soon there aren't going to be any left!

Judging by what I'm seeing, I understand why they are likely doing this. I still sell a few CRT TV's; but, they must have A/V jacks on them and be housed in either a silver or black plastic cabinet. If I were to try to sell a woodgrain plastic set from the '80's, I'd likely be stuck with it. If I were to try to sell something with knobs, I would be stuck with it.

Back in the early '90's, I could sell just about any working TV, no matter how old and it didn't matter if it was B&W or color. Today, people have gotten very picky and that's probably why Goodwill will not accept TV's older than '05. They know that anything older will just sit there taking up space.
