    My parents bought a ~$10k tv back in the day. It was one with some type of textured screen where if you weren't sitting right in front of it you couldn't see the picture. I guess that was a feature??? Same size screen now goes for less than $1k.
     
    That's a steal!

    Imagine how good the Sportsball will look. It will be just like you're at the stadium! I can almost taste the Hot Pockets and Natty Light.

    Given that a $800 TV is light years ahead of what I grew up with, and that I have been looking at $4-5000 80" TV for a game room i am doing, those $60k TV better suck cock really really really good.

    Fuck 8k and fuck 4k while we're at it! I saw a comparison back when 4k was new and they compared it with 1080p and I swear I couldn't tell the difference other than the 4k being darker. All these new ultra high resolution monitors are nothing but marketing gimmicks nowadays. Our eyes can only see so clear and nobody has totally perfect vision.
     
    I just picked up a new TV at Costco yesterday.

    65", LG , 4k, led/lcd, for $500. It is freaky clear and detailed and the color is vibrant. Bought a new stand to go with it and got out for $650+ tax.
     
    Fuk! Now I know what I'm going to spend my "Gun Buy Back" money on! Thanks for posting! LoL! Mac:ROFLMAO::LOL:
     
    For that kind of money, I would have to loot one. Looting for white people is ok right?
     
    We had one when I was a kid . I spent more time watching the vacum tubes glow than I did the screen
    Anytime 1962, Sunday night, 6:30 PM. Finish up dinner. Fire up the electronic campfire. Nothing........Shit, remove the back of the set, look for the tube that doesn't have a glowing filament, power down, wait 2 minutes, pull it out, Dad loads us into the car, head to the Safeway Grocery Store. The Tube tester was on the front wall, pop the suspect tube in, verify it's bad, find the Store Manager to get you a new one. Hop back in the car, go home, pop the tube in, replace the cover, turn on power at 6:59 PM. Viola......Wonderful World of Disney at 7:01 PM.

    My Dad taught me how to do that when I was 6 years old. ;)
     
    Funny thing is we had one when I was 6 yrs old and it was 1982 ........does that make us king of the poors !
     
    The walls in my shtf bunker aren't big enough for one of those TVs.

    You forgot, brush arm against exposed high current wire, side trip to hospital from smacking your head exiting the back of the cabinet and random burns.

    I was wrong it was circa 1952. Damn that makes me feel old.

    Would you believe some of those tubes, not usually found in tv's granted, are worth thousands of $$$.

    My Dad taught me well, never got zapped. Had a Professor in College that said the worst damage from that kind of event was the uncontrolled reaction of jerking your arm out of the box and cutting it all up on the sheetmetal and screws.....

    They get used in vintage tube guitar and base amplifiers. They produce a sound that can't really be replicated any other way.
     
    $60,000 for an LG TV ? don't think i am ever gonna buy that. not just because its expensive but i don't trust LG products that much. $60 thousand for a Sony TV and I'm all in.
    I have a 14 year old LG Plasma. After I replaced a mother board over 10 years ago, it won't die. Could go another 14.
     
    going to use my by back money to buy more guns or ammo maybe both i really should invest in pipe to make fake guns to trade in for money like homeless people do pipe guns even if they don't really work cost 10 dollars to make and could net you 200 dollars in a buy back that's a nice profit just to buy more pipe to trade in again .lol this whole thing only cost 5 dollars to make it wont work as a gun but what a government don't know will make me money and is the sort of things cops get at by backs and pay money for .

    you could have your family mass produce them just for the by back and sell them at a profit :giggle::giggle::giggle:

    Wasn't Wayfair doing something fishy where they were charging $50k - $60k for a $1000 piece of furniture? :unsure:
     
    Big difference between buying expensive/nice things and overpaying for things that will be 1/20th the price within 18 months.

    I still remember when the 70 was the latest and greatest TV. Took less than a year to go from 4-5k to like 1800-2k. I loved the look on the faces of all those fat sportsball tubby fucks who were so proud of them at one point.

    Plasma TV huh? I never could get behind the idea of having a TV that eats up 500 watts by itself.
    I can turn down the thermostat in the winter with the heat it puts out. Saves on my gas bills. Part of the Green New Deal before it was a twinkle in their eye.

    Thats one damn sweet porn viewer

    Meh... $60k will buy you a lot of action. At $400 a pop that's 3x per week for a year.

    Then buy the TV during next year's black friday sale for $1k and you come out way ahead. You still get the TV and also the wildest year of your life.

    If I were looking at a $60k TV that's what I'd do.

    How do you know the going rate for a good trick? That seems like a lot. But I’m cheap, so there’s that.

    If you can afford a $60k TV you're probably not picking up ho's at a bus stop.

    Good point though. Stick with street walkers and you'd never need to watch porn again.
