Sony KV3000R!

I already have one and I know KX250rider has one too, but ITS SO CLOSE TO ME!!!

(kinda like it's calling my name)

The ad says it doesnt work too.. hmmmm, wonder if he knows about the switch under the cabinet in the front.
Funny thing too, he mentioned that there is a video on YT with the doors opening and closing, thats my video, lol.

It even has both remotes too!

So, should I?????? Or someone else want it (please) cause I have a lack of self control when it comes to collecting......

The set that is at the top of my wish list.
Damn it all - it may as well be on another planet.
I dont think I could trust any carrier to freight that to the midwest. Just too much weight - and who would remove the chassis for a proper transport.

The one in the classifieds is working; the Craigslist one is not. Two of these TVs available at the same time has to be unusual.

Yes. Considering the rarity of the set I would put it possibly rarer than the CT-100?

He who hesitates, fellers, he who hesitates...How often do these Bad Bois come up ? Once every umpteenth blue moon ? And you MIGHT be saving a worthy veteran from an ignominious end...Look at it THAT way...

I saw that ad, and I think it's a bit pricey, considering the set isn't working, and no video rack, no mention of wood remote, etc. Definitely worth saving, and if it sits on CL and the price drops, I might try to save it. Meantime, PLEASE...... ANYBODY PLEASE PLEASE save ME from IT!!! If I didn't already have a good KV-3000R, I'd grab it, but would try to get it for a little less $ in that condition. No way to tell if the CRT is any good.

I rescued that 61" Tamo Ash projection set from CL a few weeks ago (weighs 400 lbs), and it's parked in the garage blocking a car, as I have nowhere to stick it at the house. I'll have to start hauling these big elephants of TVs to the Dallas house, if I don't quit rescuing!!!!

I'm saving the last floor space for when I find the rarest Sony; the PVM-4300U, with the 43" largest CRT ever made, and the largest price tag ($39,995.00)
