My first TV
I got off my parents. An early 80s Zenith 32 inch 'cast iron box'. Sharp edges, weighed more than a bath tub.
I carried that bastard through 2 states and probably a half dozen pads, before I finished grad school and 'struck it rich' (at least by the standards of my early 20s).
Anyway, just get a new TV. The Chinese make them cheap and light. Hell, you can just about play volleyball with the suckers nowdays.
