How to sell a CRT?

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Hi everybody,

Was wondering if anybody here has managed to sell any of their old CRT displays. I have a really nice Philips 19" Flat Screen that I want to get off my hands, but I don't really know how much to ask for it or where to sell it.

Anybody have any advice? Was hoping to get like R300 for it (such a shame - bought it new for R2700 talk about depreciation)

Thanks again.

I sold one like that a year ago....for R500 or R400...can't recall

Cash Crusaders will probably give you around R 200 for it.

I gave away 2x 19" CRT's about a month ago, cause damn, they really do take up a lot of space

Luckily the people that took them still had 14" CRT's, so was more than happy to take them off my hands

Bid or Buy is always a good bet.. Or you could donate to some one??

How could you do that to someone? Do you feel nothing? CRT!?

 

[nakedpeanut]

Hahaha what>> some people use them for other things..

Cape Ads, Gumtree and carbonite.co.za will get them sold easily. You can use any of the other classifieds as well, myBroadband, sybaritic, systemshock.co.za.

I sold two 17" CRT's a while ago for R300/250.

start a thread on say some IT forum, maybe asking if anyone knows how to sell a CRT - maybe you will get one or two bites...

If that doesn't work, then shoot, bidorbuy is a decent place, then theres gumtree, junkmail etc etc

Saw one for 150 at the local mall the other day.

One mans trash is another mans gold! Go to your free mass marketing places, people who don't have money to buy new monitors will gladly snap it up. Ask for about R300 - R400, bearing in mind that you can get 19" LCD panels for really cheap now, about R899. So it has to be worth it for them!

You probably won't get much for it out there - I flog all my older decent stuff on Bid or Buy - no hassles yet.
Recently sold my "as new" 17-inch Samsung 793S CRT, and only got R105.00 for it...

Junkmail is usually very successful.

Donate them to the church. Unless you really need the cash.

I handed my philips 19inch to the agents, to dispose of for me - was taking up space and was a hassle to get rid of.

CRT's are not that bad! I can appreciate a high quality 21" CRT, I used to have one. Their viewing angles, colour accuracy and refresh rate are better than LCD's. Of course most are less sharp, and they're very thick and heavy.

I put my 17" CRT in the drive way - someone took advantage of the special within 10min.

Now that's funny.
