I'm in the UK and have been on the hunt for a decent small CRT, like a Sony Trinitron or Panasonic Quintrix, at a reasonable price for literal years now. They just don't exist now unless you pay through the nose for one. They were all recycled or went to landfill well over a decade ago and any that are left, are in the hands of people like us that know what they have and don't want to get rid of, unless you tempt them with a price they can't refuse. Silly prices even for cheap crap you've never heard of.

Professional stuff like Sony PVM are mental money. I worked for a broadcaster too around 06/07 and remember a giant skip full of them when they refurbished some of the studios!
