36" Sony WEGA for sale not HDTV :(

Sony Tv model is KV-36FS13, the sticker on the back says October 2001 (build date I guess) I bought it from bestbuy around December 2001 ($1500 at the time :( ) It has a very good picture, dvd's look nice, it takes component and s-video connection for your dvd, satalite or cable equipment. There is a small problem with the tv that I was made aware of today, the front of the tv has a set of inputs (composite audio and video) that are behind a little door. My wife told me one of my nephews tripped on the wire to one of them pacman games when it was plugged into the front. So when they went to reconnect to the front inputs they had to wiggle the video (yellow wire) and the picture came back on but than goes off again till wiggled again. I never used the front inputs in 4 years so it never made a difference. So the front video input is damage at the connector. I don't think most people would notice or even care about this cause there is 3 more sets of inputs in the back of the tv (where most people hook stuff up anyway) There are no surprises with this set it has many many good years left in her, I just upgraded to a HDTV and went with something alittle bigger too. This set is very heavy ~240 lbs so make sure your stand can handle it The TV is located in Philadelphia near Philly In't Airport

Man if i was closer id snag that up in a heartbeat for 400. I had the same TV before i bought my 60" LCD sony grand wega. It was a great TV just smaller than i wanted so i gave it to my Mom. I think i paid 1050 for it with my Circuit city discount at the time retail was like 1500 or 1400. that would make a good tv for my bedroom... Or a big ol computer monitor.hmmmmmm 


Good luck on the sale.
