I feel blessed to live in socialism where all electronics can be taken to the recycling centre for free  (I kept my 1084 though because it's kick-rear end and has RGB and everything.)

We can take electronics to recycling for free here But why do that when you can sell your old tv for $75

My GF's 37" Sharp CRT almost ruptured me, and I move heavier poo poo every day at work.

I use electronics as bartering in my family. I owed my mother-in-law some money when my wife and I were short on cash a few years ago, so I gave her my 5.1 speaker/receiver setup and 46" LCD screen when I won a new 4K setup. I give my iPhone to my mother when I upgrade every few years.

Other than that, lol at trying to get anything for your VHS copies of Jerry Maguire and Wild Wild West.

My GF's 37" Sharp CRT almost ruptured me, and I move heavier poo poo every day at work. I've had to move these for other people a few times and have always cursed them for not putting some sort of handle or hole or even an edge to hang on to. Now I see them and say to the friend I'm moving stuff for, 'I'm not touching that'.

I saw a 64" widescreen Sony CRT on Craigslist the other day for $50. That poo poo was nearly 400 lbs, good luck to the poor rear end in a top hat stuck with that thing until the end of days. Maybe he can hire a team of guys with saws to chop it into tiny pieces and drag them out to the curb. For a brief dumbass moment I actually considered buying it

I honestly don't know what people still use them for but this 13" one sold for $195 on eBay.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sony-13-B-W...=p2047675.l2557 I have a 13" color PVM and it's worth maybe like $50 so I don't know what the gently caress.
