Yes. 2012. Was a typo.
You should post a picture with something on display, Like a movie playing.
No cable connection and Roku is lost. Maybe Iâll connect a laptop and show. Thanks for the heads up.
Although anyone serious will like to come and see I guess.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but expecting 20k for a previous Gen âPlasmaâ TV is not possible. My Dad had a plasma tv too, either no one wants to buy or youâd get a max offer for 5k. Best is to keep as spare or donate it. GLWS!!
Edit: Also plasma tubes have a max lifespan of 10 years. Considering the age youâve posted, itâs lifespan remaining would be 2 years. My Dads plasma TV is still around and used by workers, which is about 10 years and yes there are problems arising. Just giving a heads up to interested folks.

And maybe you should also read the rules of the forum where it clearly says to make any price suggestions via PM only and not to crap the sellerâs thread.

Can you point me to this? I canât seem to find any such rule. In fact, in the past I have seen the mods say that posts helping the seller price their product correctly are allowed.
Also, OP, Jan '22 is just 2 months away. So the product is 10 years old, not 8 as mentioned in the post. But it doesnât matter since purchase date is mentioned.

The last sticky on guidelines for this section. Read that carefully and you will find it.
There is also a dedicated Market pricing product etc. related thread in the General section. You can post there about any concerns about any of the sale threads.
Thanks much for the unsolicited advise. Great to hear from a guy who is such a great seller, that he has been bumping his sale thread for over 2 months, and has not yet sold the items.
Should I pay for said advise?
I donât see the need for the personal attack. Regardless of whether his tone was right or not, he was just pointing out mispricing. If you post a sale thread on a public forum, be prepared for some feedback, right or not. Getting defensive, resorting to ad hominem, and passive aggressive statements at the first message doesnât really show anyone in good light. You can very well say that you are not willing to sell below this price, regardless of how the market sees it.
As for the price suggestion, yes, your product is overpriced. If one has a choice between buying a new 50" 4k Smart TV from Vu for 35k and a 10 year old Full HD non-smart television with a technology which is pretty much obsolete in the consumer market for 20k, I guess the choice is obvious. Similar TVs on OLX are listed for 5-6k. So your product, your price, fine. But you can very well say that respectfully.

âsorry to burst your bubbleâ sounds very respectful?
Well sorry to burst your bubble, but as I have pointed out above, it is against the rules to make a post against pricing suggestion unless you post a link to the same product selling at a lower price somewhere. Any price suggestions have to be made through PM. Only technical discussions which could help a buyer are allowed in a sale thread. Maybe you could read the rules instead of imposing your opinion or even just read a few posts above in the thread.
I donât know why people canât stop this price policing with no intention of buying. Let the buyer and seller sort it out amongst themselves. For what itâs worth, I would have paid 20k for this TV if it was in my city or if I could find a secure way of shipping it. Comparing a Plasma to any of the cheapo LED Tvs of today, is just outright blasphemy in my opinion because of the huge difference in PQ. How do I know that? My 7 year old Samsung Plasma conked off in May 2020 and I tried a lot to get it repaired and then find a second hand replacement of the exact same model. Why did I do that? Because only an OLED TV at 1.2L was an upgrade. Every other LED TV, even with VA panels doesnât even come close to the blacks and the PQ on the whole. So there might not be a demand among the common folk for a Plasma these days, but there are people out there who know how great they are even compared to todayâs offerings.

Iâm hoping that one of these days, youâll give me a URL to the said rule, since I canât seem to find it anywhere.
Member ibose did tell you where to look, but since you canât seem to follow his instructions, here is the link - * READ FIRST ! * Guidelines on how to use the market section - Closed Market Listings - TechEnclave
And it literally says to read first before using this section of the forum.
Also, maybe it might be too long of a read for you, so Iâll quote the relevant section from that thread as well, which I have done in another thread in the MP as well.

Hi Deepak
Generally horizontal orientations are advised to be avoided with big plasmas. Like the in the picture on the bed.
To any prospective buying, I feel this product link will give you a lot more details about the specs of the T.V.
I hope OP doesnât mind me sharing the link on his behalf. Just trying to give more info to a future buyer.
