Large lot of flatscreens

With the USA and our "throw away" culture, I feel like people dont really repair things like TVs any more. TVs are so cheap now that you'd probably spend just as much in repairs as to just get a new TV.

on walmarts website, you can get a brand new 32" TV shipped to your house for $100, a 43" TV for $200.

And since nowhere TAKES tvs by me for free, there is always a bunch of them listed for free by me in perfect working condition just cause people may get new ones and not know what to do with the old ones.... and even then they dont always get taken. Literally cant give TVs or computer monitors away by me.

BUT there is definitely still a market for the boards on eBay and such, especially if they are name brand. Still, does not work out for me though with all the left overs, but worth a try if you've got a disposal method.
