Free TV, good condition but not flat screen

We have a 19" monster TV that's about 8 or 9 years old. Great condition. But our bad backs prevent us from moving it from upstairs to car. It's free for anyone who needs a giant old good TV. It weighs about sixty to eighty pounds. Pick up in Beacon.

why buy when you can barter? use this space to post goods or services you have, and what you'd like in exchange for them. also post requests if you just need to borrow an item (tools for a weekend project). BARTER, BORROW, OR GIVE!
