Picture quality would be pretty crappy compared to screens nowadays, and as Billy T and a few others say, how is it gonna be used? How are you gonna resell it? I mean in your shoes I'd rather have the $5k you refer to... has he got a car? you'd probably get more for that... :p As for prices on Trademe, not trying to be funny, but have you looked? Or you could ask Arcade distributors... Of course I looked. Unfortunately there weren't any massive plasmas on there to compare with at all. I don't care what it goes for, I'll definitely get my money out of it. But he's not going to let me sell it for less than $5k, and I can't make him as court would cost too much. This is the guy I PM'd you about Billy. It's from an arcade machine, it says Tekken on the top.	george12 (7)

A debt collection company couldn't even help me as he ignored their threats and they couldn't add on costs, so were quite powerless. I honestly have no idea what technology is inside the thing, all I know is that it's too thin to be a CRT.	george12 (7)
