Yeah, it's amazing that TV's cost so much back then. Now, you can buy a 42" LCD TV for that price (or less). Unfortunately, the new LCD TV won't be nearly as reliable or as easy to fix as the old 19" CRT set from 1980.

I also remember when 19" B&W sets were $150 and 12" B&W sets were $100. It wasn't unheard of for 25" consoles to cost in the $700-$1200 range.

I paid about that much in 1982 for my RCA CTC101, it was a 19 incher

Yes, the one with the infamous flyback. It did have an excellent picture, with the comb filter.
