An old TV that can be sold at a profit
Modern TVs are quite expensive devices. Their cost is determined by screen size, functions and capabilities. When we think about buying a new television set, we involuntarily remember the amounts we paid for previous televisions. Today the costs for them no longer seem large. The price that can be obtained if you sell an “old” TV also becomes low.
However and among the old models there are those that can be sold profitably.

When age becomes an advantage
When getting rid of unnecessary TV sets, their owners use different methods.
- Resale. Suitable for existing devices. The price depends on age: younger ones can be sold for more.
- Delivery for details. An option suitable for both working and faulty devices. Revenue will depend on how many similar models the artist already has.
- Giving. A method that allows you to get rid of the device, but does not provide benefits.
- Exchange for new equipment. Stores hold such promotions from time to time. They are in demand among buyers because they allow them to reduce the price of a new model.
Another way is going to an antique shop. If specialists are interested in your unit, then you can earn a certain amount even for an older TV.
IMPORTANT! For an antique dealer, the considerable age of your device will be its advantage.

Old but expensive
The most popular among old domestic devices is the KVN TV.
This is the first Soviet receiver that reproduced the transmitted image. The name of the product has nothing to do with the name of the youth club of cheerful and resourceful people.
REFERENCE! In its name, the device retained the first letters of the three creators of the device - Koenigson, Varshavsky and Nikolaevsky.
Since the screen of the first model was very small, the image needed to be enlarged. Therefore, a lens was a mandatory addition to the device. Water or glycerin was poured into it. The picture shown through such a screen became a little larger, although it was somewhat blurry.
For collectors, such a model is a desirable exhibit in a collection. The cost of the device depends on the configuration (with a lens or not), as well as the condition (working - not working).
- Non-working models without a lens cost from 10 to 25 thousand rubles.
- Working models without lenses - from 50 to 60 thousand rubles.
- A working KVN-49 with a lens from 80 to 100 thousand rubles.
As you can see, there is no need to rush to throw away your old TV! First you need to make sure that you are not throwing away thousands of rubles with it!
