Wow, I've got a conventional console here with that tube and chassis, and a beat up cabinet.

I'd love to swap it into that one but they don't say what they want for it, that and the drive to SD just doesn't appeal to me right now.

Ya never know 'til you a$k... How far is San Diego from you?
Maybe they'll meet you half way, or better??

You're right, I sent a message asking how much.

Scripps Ranch is 99 Miles from me according to Yahoo, I've made the drive before but it was for a set I wanted more.

Good luck Eric. I sent him a message asking how much about a day or so ago and I have not received any kind of reply yet. Either he's busy or holding out for someone to offer him a high price.

I hope you get that set, Eric or Jordan! That's a very rare one, and the only one I've ever had was really rough.

I'm afraid the chassis/CRT might be Shazbat, what w/the way the CRT is obviously rollin' around in there..That IS a pretty cabinet, though..Nice counterpoint to the usual big, dumpy boxes TVs are generally mounted in...

Got an answer

"I am asking $150 obo. I’ve been told that this is a very interesting TV because of the cabinet style and that it is probably worth between $200 and $300. I am not a collector- this TV has been in my family since the original purchase over 50 years ago."

This set probably is worth $150 if it's as nice as it looks and is all there but I'm not prepared to pay that and drive to SD, maybe in my earlier collecting days I would have.
