Am I a CRT Hoarder?  Buying MORE Cheap PVM CRTs on eBay & Fixing Them
Channel: Retro Tech
Date: 2021-07-16

Am I a CRT Hoarder?  Today I will address this accusation and unbox my latest PVM purchase.  This is a Sony PVM 8042Q CRT Trinitron Monitor that I purchased off of eBay.  The seller sold this to me for a total of $69 shipped.  It was advertised as not-working.  This time it actually is not working.  Think we can get it powered on again?
