Not sure what to do with these, so if anyone 1) wants them or 2) knows what I should do with them, let me know!

Both work. One's a portable - probably 10-12". The other is a monstrous 27" with surround sound. I can't believe we paid $1000 for it new! We thought we'd died and gone to heaven. It weighs like 50 lbs. Off to Salvation Army, probably.

I don't think they will take it. Pawn shops will not take them. It's hard to even give them away..... Good luck....

I donated mine to the battered women's shelter.

Do you know how many people do this? I googled the problem, and there were tons of these.

There used to be one on a sitcom once. Not sure what the name of the show was. I always thought it would be cool to gut a blender and use it to make a small desktop aquarium.

Who do you think you are, Wayde King?

They are not that hard to give away, post it on CL, I sold two of mine for $25 each, but asking for money for them I sat on them for about 2 weeks before it was sold. If you post it as a free item, you would have lots of people knocking on your door for them though.

When I got my first iguana back in the very early '90s (1990 to be exact), I gutted one of those old floor model TVs that looked like furniture.

Fred seemed okay with it until he got to be around 3' or so.

Old video games look best on these CRT televisions, that sony you have is probably perfect for it! You could probably sell it to someone on craigslist or even just take it to one of the old videogame stores around san antonio.
