Goodwill won't take them as donations anymore, and it costs money to dispose of one because of the chemicals in it.

The Commodore 8 bit crowd has been buying them up as there are ways to repair the C64 and other units and they used TV sets from long ago.

I remember when I got a C64 I had a Zenith black and white TV to work with it and got a color one later when Magnavox store near us lowered prices.
