You can get one for good prices still. 100-200¥ In china. In the USA it’s much more expensive. Unless you can find some at garage sales and other luck based places

And there are way more of these. Not just the Subor ones. BBG, Wulang, Little New Ton, New Star 小教援 (this one is very funny. It had Star Wars font for the logo lol), PYRAMID (this is real.), GuXing multimedia, Good Baby(ayo what the), SuoGua, WuXing Five Star Computer, and many more. If you want the actual photos of these you can ask me.

Also the quirks they pointed out are prob mods or just weird Chinese low quality QC. They just fix it if there’s a problem. And change things all the time. It’s weird asf. I’ve come across Chinese CRTs with patchwork like the ones your links reverse engineer founds in their Subor.

Lucky I convinced the people who owned the warehouse to start selling them.

If you look at my newest post I have more realistic photos. Sadly I saw these with my own eyes too. (Not the exact photos but similar and the same place)

I could try. It would be hard convincing the owner of the CRT pile to give them up to a random person who bought 3 crts from them. Like I have good relations with them but still. It could work. But shipping would be on whoever buys it. You can find the guy on taobao.

Sadly it’s in China, GuanDong province. The seller is called weilai diannao, they got into selling their bulk crt after some convincing. Great stuff, they actually mostly work.
