Inflation calc says those are $4035 televisions in today’s dollars.
TVs have become insanely cheap from what they once were.
I’m a Xennial and we had a console TV growing up and used it throughout the 90’s (possibly after in the early 2000s as well). We moved twice and that thing was a beast to move. No remote control though. The kids were the remote control for the grown ups.
As the youngest of 4, shit rolled downhill…
Sounds about right. I had a 33" floor model tv and it weighed something like 160 pounds. I had my apartment broken into around 1990 and they stole pretty much all the electronics except the tv.
Tv too low
Grand motherfuckin theft
Reminds me of The Offspring song “Walla Walla”. (Had this album and had no idea this song was called Walla Walla)
You started to run but didn’t get far
'Cause under your arm was a VCR
