Hey there! I have two old CRT TVs that still work, though they look a bit worn out. They’re not sleek like modern screens; they have that chunky, boxy feel and curved front glass. When they’re on, you’ll hear that familiar static sound. I don’t know their exact resolution, but they’re not connected to any cable right now, so the videos only show the channel lines. I plan to share a few pictures soon. The black one is bigger than the white one, and the black model has an antenna clip attached. Both remotes function with them. I’m wondering how much they’d be worth if I cleaned them up properly. My parents are getting older and don’t use them, so they’re probably not worth much to them. But maybe I could surprise them with some good news! No scratches or dents are visible except a few nail holes on the back of the black one—definitely not affecting performance. I’m hoping someone out there might be interested, especially a gamer. I just want to find out what these old TVs are and if they’re still valuable. Here’s the link to my Google Drive for reference: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1...sp=sharing

A 13 and a 19-inch Toshiba TV with built-in VCR? That’s going to be a tough pitch. These days they’re almost worthless. They don’t have the connections gamers need, aren’t Trinitron models, and are essentially the most basic CRT sets available.

Interestingly, the significance of Trinitron lies in its pioneering role in television design. If you're not sure about its impact, it's worth exploring why it stood out among its time.

They craft exceptional technology that stands out from the rest. When you encounter their products, it’s clear they deliver performance beyond ordinary television standards.
