    I distinctly recall Sony’s 40" Trinitron CRT weighing over 300 lbs. The 32" was ~200 lbs.

      I have a 27" Trinitron and could barely get it into my car by myself. Probably my best curb find ever.

      Edit: 108lbs. And 900 US dollars new, in the year 2000; equivalent to $1,750 today.

      Yup. That was the last CRT I ever owned. Thing was a tank and took two people to carry it.
