So I have been gone for a few days because I have been working on this deal. I bought a vintage TV store complete with vintage TVs, parts, around 60 CRTs some rebuilt still in the boxes, around 4000 vacuum tubes lots NOS, test equipment, workbenches, shelves, everything. Well almost everything, I ended up with 90% of the store, I was not able to outbid a guy for the Sams filing cabinets, however, he said he might make me deal after he takes the set files he needs.
I have had a really hard time finding any vintage TVs out here on the west coast. I am based in Sacramento. The few TVs I have found I have always had to drive hours and often spend a large amount to get. So this was a once in a lifetime opportunity to allow me to get years worth of projects in one shot.
Here are a few photos of the first 8 truck loads. Tomorrow I probably have 6 more truck loads.
Finally, I am not a TV collector. So I will be moving a lot of sets on. I just want to have the chance to work on them.
