1365063 2014-01-12 21:11:00 We replaced our aging but working 30" CRT TV, and now need to dispose of it. Don't want to go to the hassle and minor expense of dumping it (it weighs a bloody ton!), so y' reckon anybody would actually want to still use one?

It's located in Greenmeadows, Napier.

1365065 2014-01-12 22:34:00 I doubt you will have much luck, you are pretty much wanting to dump a heavy paper weight. $1 res it on TradeMe with pick up only. Alex B (15479)

Trouble being is that living in the Meadows same as I do, we still have the ability to go out and leave the house unlocked, so It may sit on your lawn for quite a while. ;)

KenHey Ken... whereabouts in Greenmeadows? I actually live in a sad part of town, Marewa, but spend a lot of my time at the g/f's in Knightsbridge. At home I even had my plastic rubbish bin stolen a few weeks ago!

But yeah I understand what you mean about going out unlocked.
