Got a Traditional (old) Portable TV in the kitchen which has now 'popped' after 15 years. We dont need a LCD or anything fancy and was wondering best place for a cheapo one similar to the one we had (with a tube etc). Are there any suggested shops for new as opposed to ebay?

    I don't think they make them any more?

    don't ignore ebay ~

    - put in the search TV
    - change the ' sort by ' button to ' nearest first '
    - click on ' auctions only ' tab
    - click the ' distance tab ' bottom LHS, and - put in the distance from / and your postcode

    get yourself a nice 30" Sony Trinitron for a fiver on collect only, cash on collection

    You don't need paypal etc, just sign up for n ebay account, people will pay you to take their CRT's away.

    Hope this helps

    Don't forget freecycle and similar either.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    Plenty up the tidy tip if they will let you take one, don't forget you will soon need to have a freeview box to go with it.
    Nothing to see here, move along.
