So, I am going to Europe this summer (specifically Britain) on vacation/visiting relatives. I get back July 25th. I heard about how Goose needed a PAL display so I had the idea to go and get a small PAL display in Europe for cheap, I have heard from someone that they literally just have them in the junkyards for free because not many people really want them, but if this isn't the case I could just get them for cheap at thrift stores and such I assume. Anyways, I might be able to get a lot of PAL displays and take them with me in my luggage, it is 35 USD for each suitcase or bag, with each weighing 50 pounds. This is much cheaper than shipping it from Europe I believe, I can probably fit 2 or 3 PAL displays in each suitcase. I guess it would make me known as the PAL display "smuggler"  :LOL:.

I was wondering what would be the interest in buying these displays, I would ship from the US from Long Island, New York, and local pick up would be an option if you happy to live close by. Let me know if anyone is interested in this, the price would be around 60 USD including shipping, shipping to places like Canada would be doable but sadly much more costly in terms of shipping. I will probably have the pricing figured out when I come back with the displays.

nah I'm talking about CRTs
like I said before, they will be small enough so they can fit into my luggage, the limit I have (delta airlines) is
Maximum dimensions: 62 inches or 157 centimeters (length + width + height).
Maximum weight: 50 pounds or 23 kilograms
it seems possible that I can fit 2 CRT TVs in there, but they'd have to be quite light/small
also, I may be able to bring additional baggage to fit more CRTs, but we'll see, for now I am just wondering who would be interested in buying them after I get them to the US
