It's time to announce that I am moving and will be moving my shop to Virginia from its current location in Tennessee. This means I will have to safely and carefully pack A LOT of CRTs and equipment. Please join me on the journey.

I have a 36 inch sony trinitron in the trunk of my grandmother's suv but it was heavy enough to where one side of the suv was a lowrider😅 and we have a HUGE problem getting it out of the car because it weight alot and it was facing the glass side and we didn't wanna risk it and would need to use a wheelbarrow to haul it to the house because it is still in the trunk 😂🤣😂🤣 and to make it even worse the grip on sony trinitrons are terrible so it's gonna be harder to even get it into the wheelbarrow.

It really just depends on if you can get a good drip on it. A lot of these are awkward to lift which is what partially makes it difficult. The one he lifted seemed to have handles, fortunately

Man, just my luck. The day I look you up so that I can bring my 32" multiformat RCA MM32110 to you is the same day I found out you're moving. I live in Indiana but if you've still got time I would love to bring this to you for a recap if possible. Of the +20 CRTs I own, this is my grail set and I'll do anything to keep it running for as long as possible. If you don't wanna take it on, I'd still be more than happy to bring it as a feature to a video, maybe? These sets are very rare and I've not found any other videos on them, and many people don't realize just how incredible these are. 240p/480i, 480p, and 1080i all natively in a 32" 4:3 CRT. Couldn't figure out how to message you so I'm hoping you see this!!

Thanks, I know this sounds crazy, but I had to go to a week long seminar with an old job about 15 years ago. The seminar was an entire week of Back techniques. Taught me the proper way to prepare my back and then lift using mostly body muscle and using back as secondary strength. It's probably one of the most valuable things I was ever taught.

You cant imagine how bad online shops, mainly Ebay are. You need to send your ID to verify your age or if the seller is lazy buy a shipping ticket with age verification by the postal service which never happens. Additionally they like to use stickers to replace old rating logos with new ones which ruin games. Because of this and also because I love international releases for not having bad translations, censorship and voice actors.... I always get British copies. Often cheaper than German ones for some reason except shipping 10-15 pounds sterling on a 2-15 p s game. Sad but the only way to enjoy English language for 100% of the games and uncut.
