I'd buy that for a $: Retro bargains

Oh wow! bargain!

If the TV was closer I'd prob go for it. I'm just toying with the idea of selling up at the moment and I've kinda stopped buying too.

I know what you're saying. I sold some super stuff over the years and always regretted it. What I have left just sits in the attic which is no good. I could also do with the money going towards a new hobby that I can enjoy.

This would have a shadow mask, so will produce a different image to the aperture grill type you're probably used to seeing in your Trinitron (which gives you brighter colours and more prominent scanlines)

Most folks would probably have had shadow mask CRTs growing up, unless they had the cash to buy a Sony.

Sounds like there's something funky going on with the tube, you might be on to something with it being a bit enhanced to watch broadcast tv. Would love to see a photo of what you are seeing if you can get a snap at some point!

Both Beovision LE 6000 and ME 6000 were equipped with Black Line picture tubes, which made the picture sharper. A toned-contrast screen in front of the tube enhanced the contrast level, making the picture more pleasant to watch. And Bang & Olufsen's Colour Transient Improvement improved the sharpness of colour transitions, which eliminated irritating shadows.

Thanks for the detailed overview of it, never heard of this 'E' range before.

Thanks for the update. I've owned a few 90s Philips TVs and they're all like that. They have very good contrast and colour, which is what the Black Line tubes are meant to be about, but there's a softness to the picture. I have other TVs with Panasonic and Thomson tubes and they're noticeably sharper, but have more sombre colour.

I’ve decided to preorder one.

32" Sony TV in Aughrim. As far as I can tell, this TV is not a 100Hz model, so should be good for a mixture of 4:3 and widescreen.

An update on my collecting. Managed to shift a bundle last week, 100+ SNES games plus a few boxed consoles gone. Have already spent most of the money on Jap Dreamcast goodies. I'd gone as far as I could with the SNES stuff, wasn't willing to pay over €100 for single carts to complete the collection so instead I'm focusing on a complete Jap Dreamcast collection. I'm nowhere near but it's nice to be able to pick up bargains and spot things I don't own for cheap again.

If you're going to spend 60 euro on something unknown then I'd suggest saving up another 100 euro and getting a Hydra instead.

Been using one for a few months now myself and it's been great, the auto detect / switching is particularly good.

This does multiple in and two out, I have my one outputting to my flat panel (going through. Retrotink5x first) and the other then going to a PVM.

Ah I see you want four out! That's a more niche problem alright haha

Have you ever owned a PVM actually? All of the BNC video connectors have a corresponding BNC video out connector so you can chain monitors together.

At one point I had a big 20 inch PVM, two small 9 inch PVMs and a Commodore 1084s all chained together this way.

Absolutely no reason for it other than looking cool. Was quite something seeing a Sonic demo screen running on them all at once.

Never occurred to me to try the same lightgun across multiple monitors! missed opportunity.

I run signal across multiple PVMs a good bit

that link might work for one a did a while ago

Ive seen a few multiple scart out devices on aliexpress, 6 in and 3 out kind of thing. I always wanted to try one out but they are really "cheap" and my curiosity wasnt enough to spend €80-90 on something that would probably end up being a bit ****

Hi guys, hope ye are all well! I haven't been on here in absolute ages, since the site changed I think. Put collecting on back burner last year or so.

I'll be potentially moving country in the next few months and have decided to sell off a considerable amount of stuff. Just put up quite a few SNES NTSC games on adverts, with more bits to come over the next while. Will give reasonable deals to people on here of course for any of my ads.

Good pointy feedback there to the Adverts re-seller :)

In today's edition of "the ****?...." you can buy Wii and PSP accessories behind the counter in Spar Harolds Cross for some ungodly reason. Thought I was having a stroke when I saw a Wii cooling fan to the left of the cigarettes like they're some sort of contraband.

So, yeah, don't all rush at once, lads.

Trinitron TV - Navan.

Anyone in contact with Brownfinger at all?

I remember he was looking for a Big Buck Hunter years ago, just saw one on adverts.

Edit - scratch that! was an arcade1up machine - booooo

€12.50 for the A500 mini mouse thing if anyone's looking. Usual free collection in store or €3.50 delivery. Only a week or so left and they are closed up.

Half the time I do wonder re Adverts, are the folks genuinely interested in collecting kinda happy with what they have at this stage...and all that are left are people looking to flip stuff.

There's a few decent buyers and sellers left, but nowhere near what it used to be like.

Going to be putting more stuff up on adverts this week.

Usual deal, any of you locals just let me know and ill knock the VAT off

Edit: deal not applicable to Ireland unfortunately. It was the free 8bitdo Pro2 controller with 6 months subscription to RetroGamer magazine.
