Finally scored...

..A KV-5000 Sony Trinitron. Wanted one of them little guys since they were new, couldn't afford one then, have had several slip thru my hands on The E-place. Sent the money order off today, I oughta have it 10 days-2 weeks. Now we wait, hoping the Gods of Shipping decide to smile on us, & hope it gets here intact...-Sandy

Congratulations Sandy! It's really great to get something you have been drooling over since it was new, that wasn't affordable at that time. Those are the best scores.

Congratulations on getting a 5000! Was that the one in Wichita for $55 final bid last week? I had bid on it, but didn't rebid since my spending money is short. That is an excellent price for a KV-5000. Usually in good shape and with a strong tube, they can go for $200+. Does this one have the hard black plastic front travel cover? Those are missing 99% of the time.

Yeah, Charles, that was the one. It apparently has a few "issues", but, yeah, I think I stole it...Of course, YOU, you Dirty Dog, don't you have a gaggle of these little guys ? (grin)
