So it wasn't too long ago, maybe two years or so that I could find working CRT TV's by the side of the road for hard rubbish collection. But just this last year or so it seems the supply had finally dried up. I found one 34cm telly, useful for 80's PCs like the C64. So that's the situation in my city in Australia and I suspect in Australia in general. What's it like in your neck of the woods? |

In Western NY of the USofA and yeah, they were everywhere a few yrs ago. I got a bunch of flat tubes with Svideo and a few component in my basement. a bunch of rounded tubes with mostly composite. Two round tubes with build in DVD players. All 19 or 20 inch TV's. I think i'm set for a bit. Not too many crt's at the thrift shops these days that I want. all generic 19/20" with composite input. I was grabbing those for $5 a piece a few yrs ago. I'd love a 25 or 27 inch but no dice. FB market place has them. some for free, some actually think someone will give them $20 for a 20" Orion crt. |

Well I went to craigslist under the free stuff section typed “TV” and it came up with over 30 different crt’s so… nope |

Finding a tv is easy... finding a large, round tube crt that'll play nice with light guns, with component and s-video hookups is the tricky part. |

Kijiji in my city reveals a dozen CRT TVs for sale currently. I'm sure there are more lurking in thrift stores and pawn shops. |
