What In The Hell Do I Do With This Old Beast Of A TV?
 
I have an old rear projection HD Mitsubishi 65" TV that I need to ditch. It's been a great TV but I upgraded to a new 65" today that wasn't around when dinosaurs were roaming the earth. This nasty behemoth weighs in at around 400 pounds. :doh!:

Poll forthcoming:

Put it on CL.

Someone will give you $150.

I checked the local Craigslist and they are not bringing much, if anything around here.

Put in on CL for free, and watch it disappear in less than an hour. I guess you have to worry about people "casing" your house, but I don't think it's that big of a risk.

If it is, I'm screwed, cuz I have given away a LOT of old TV's and electronics on CL.

I blew ours up with tannerite.

I recommend it.

Put it for free and say it has to be picked up and you wont help. It'll be gone in an hour.

Bulky pickup day? (If that's an option...in the basement till then.)

If not, any option but the craigslist one.

Roll it out to the street and put a curb alert on Craigslist. It'll be gone in less than an hour

Yeah I think it would go away fast, but I would also get a running start and roll it out of the house first down some kind of Jerry rigged ramp. They better bring several of there buddies if I go that direction because I have no desire to wrangle a 400 pound TV that I'm giving away for free. ;)

I have 20 pounds, that would be impressive. :)

Out it out front on your curb. Someone will along and take it home.

If rockymtnchief lived in town I would drive it over and leave it in his yard with a "Merry Christmas" note on it. :evil:

300 ultra-mag from 500 yards followed by .223 from 100 yards. Invite your ATV buddies. Drink beer.

LMAO I appreciate it! I've got one I'm eyeballing for a post-Christmas purchase.

Bwana, that TV probably has a Fresnel lens in it. You need to check it out. If it does you need to grab it and put it in your survival kit. I got one out of my old Mitsubishi.
