Disposing of older TVs

[keith greene]

I have an older Vizio TV (50 inch, I believe, but it might be a 40) that has stopped working. I initially thought it was the main board that had gone bad so I bought a replacement and replaced it. That didn't fix it. I am in need of room, and no longer have the desire to fix it. If anyone wants it for parts or to fix, let me know and it's yours.

Barring that, what are my best options for disposing of it?

Thanks,

Keith

If you haven't had any takers, I'd be willing to try use it as a learning experience at the shop to try to identify what is wrong and then fix it, and then donate it to the shop if I can get it working.

Or maybe just lock it up in a lead box after repairing it:

Haven't had any takers yet, Jed. If you want it, it's yours. I don't get down to the shop much, and I don't have a car that could carry it. I'll see if James can run it down there the next time he goes. He lives real close to me.

Thanks, Keith, I'll take it then and we will see what we can do with it at the shop. If James can drop it off sometime, awesome, otherwise PM me and I'll figure out a way to come take it off your hands.

I spoke to James and he said he's not going to get down to the shop this week. I'll see if I can get my brother to haul it down there.
