    How much are they worth individually?

    50-100 for the 9 inch to 14 inch Sony/JVC/ikegami ones.

    150+ for anything bigger. Potentially up to 500+ for any multi format Sony PVMs (I don't see anything that fancy in the photos though)

    Nicest looking one I can make out is a Sony PVML4 which is worth a few hundred quid. Intersting looking large JVC one in there too. Will have to have a closer look on a PC.

    That ad is up there weeks. I spotted it ages ago but had no way to get them in cork and I’d only just been down there. Think I sent a link to it at the time to a few people.

    yeah it had been there a while. Think it was the leftovers of that big haul a few years back, Mozie got some of the rgb ones but left the composite ones back

    Yeah, I saw that but didn't have the time or money to head down to cork for it.

    Nice haul though

    Yeah I think it's a different lad who sold them, anyone who saw that haul would have been all over that 20L4 - it stands out like a massive lump of gold in the middle of everything :D

    I'd say the guy who bought them knows what they're worth anyway, see he sold a 6 inch PVM a while ago on adverts for 150.

    Hopefully some bargains will come out of it. I wouldn't mind picking up one of those Ikegamis.

    TBH I'm pretty much packed full with CRTs now. I have a Sony tritron and a Panasonic consumer tvs that both need repair. My quad Sony setup is now in storage and my ikegami sitting idle

    The only PVMs I'd be after now would be the 20 inch and above size. And those are serious coin

    I wonder whatever happened to this lot of CRTs??

    Was found nine months ago now, would have thought we'd see a few for sale. :(
