Sony sony sony... this is my second cool Sony find for May

I have passed up a few portable TV's over the past couple months now while out rummaging in thrift stores, but this leaped out, hit me in the face, and told me I was shtoopid if I didn't buy it. Naturally, I thought, a TV that can do that is really something so I just had to buy it.

So, here's my Sony Trinitron Color TV KV-4000.. I should mention that these pictures don't really do it justice. It's really only got a couple pin point nicks in the top of the case, and a small scratch under one of channel buttons. It's in really sweet shape.

Nice score!!! I have always liked those, but they are expesive on the bay. Everything works good?? Best part of solid state is tv can be serviced by any tv shop. What year are these?? Early eighties??

Tag says $7.99? YOU STOLE IT! Lucky son of a gun!!! I just sold one on eBay for $300. Those are great little sets, and are getting quite collectable. Very few problems with those besides the channel buttons, which can be replaced.

Yeah... I figured at $7.99 I probably couldn't go wrong. In anycase... I really like trinitron displays. Everything on it works. I think I'll keep it to my self. In any case... it's not stollen... it's just a really really really good price.

I should say the picture is a little geometrically distorted. I don't know that I'd be all that good with adjusting it... I wonder how much you it would cost to have someone adjust it or how much it could be adjusted.
