50 sets in one auction!
Seller says some of them are new.
Someone really needs to check this out and see what's there. I know no one will have room for 50 large sets at once. http://cgi.ebay.com/LOT-OF-50-OLD-VI...item439e181d8b

Wow, thats unreal. Some of those look like real unique offbrand sets. Hopefully they can be saved!

OMG! If this were local I would get them and make room even I had to build a room. This would keep me busy for years. I hope someone who loves old sets gets these and not the recycling crowd.
Packard Bell made some amazing sets. The cabinets and chassis are heavy duty. Last edited by ctc17; 03-21-2010 at 08:58 PM.

OMG, my Mother would disown me if I brought home 50 console TV's all at once; however, I do see some interesting sets there that I'd love to have. If they were closer to home, I'd try to work up some kind of deal to save at least some of them. This is indeed a once in a lifetime find.

The load floor on U-Haul's largest van is roughly 23x7 feet. Putting fifty sets in one of those would mean stacking them at least two high and possibly some on top of those!
It would also cost me about $900 to do it from about 700 miles away. Not including the storage unit I'd have to rent. Bah... I did e-mail the seller and ask how may sets there are in total. Last edited by AUdubon5425; 03-22-2010 at 04:22 AM.

Honestly Im thinking about it. But I got to also be real. I would have to fly to SC, rent a U Haul and drive them back to Los Angeles. I figure the truck would get 5 mpg so the total cost would be about $4000. I live on a 3 acher defunct farm so space is the least of my worries.

Definitely looks like an old TV sales & service shop out-of-business. Probably a few nice sets, and also, with a hoarder like the owner of that shop, I can nearly guarantee that there are other rooms; perhaps filled in prior decades to that one!!!

GAWD I would love to go see all that stuff. God (and that guy) only knows what kind of goodies are in there.
