We Americans never really got SCART. We just got S-Video in the 80s, and it was really only used for high end stuff in the 80s and 90s. S-Video became big in the late 90s just to be overtaken by component quickly there after. TVs from the 80s on had implosion protection which was just thicker glass on the tubes. You should be able to get some glass polish to polish out those mild scratches.
Would like to see a review off that black big panasonic and the Mitsubishi 29" boxed
very nice pickups as usual, you make finding the interesting stuff look easy. keen to see the review of that little obscure broadcast rgb model!
Looking forward to seeing your reviews of some of these bad boys
Wow and I can barely find one in metro Adelaide.

Pity no scart in North America. If you guys had it, it would have made it the standard worldwide quite possibly.
nice work rob, are you based in NSW - Syd area

Where do you pick these up? :)
I hate seeing CRT TVs have broken flaps.
even very well kept tvs sometimes have this unfortunately, some are too fragile hey.
I think many TVs came with a "flap hammer," which the new owner could use to snap off the flap as soon as it was out of the box.
@@lmtliam lol thats bad
