I recently replaced my 32" Princeton Arcadia TV/Monitor with a Pioneer Kuro 5020. The CRT was actually had a really nice picture and although it wasn't technically an HD tv, I was able to watch HD content through an old Samsung DirecTV tuner through the VGA input at 800x600 resolution.

My question is: are there people out there still looking for a TV like this? I put it up on my local Craigslist and received no response. I'm considering just giving it to a friend but if I can make a few bucks off it I'd be glad.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Your asking price might be too high. Nobody wants tube anymore unless it's really cheap or a XBR960.

There is sort of a cult following for those Princeton sets, but it's a very small group of people. It could take a long time to find the right buyer willing to pay for it.
