faulty tv

Well in my youth, I worked saturdays in a tv repair / component shop.

I could guarantee at least one every day would come into the shop and simply ask to buy a "Picture Valve"

Of course they didn't have the old valve with them, nor the make and model of the set, and probably didn't even know for sure the fault was as simple as a duff valve.

So what you saying you would not sell a valve ,the best faults
we had when using pinnacle vales were alway's frame collapse
not many chargeable they all seem to fail in rental tv,s

No use selling any old valve.  If the guy comes into the shop asking for a "picture valve" but doesn't have the old valve, doesn't even know what type of valve, what would you do, pick one at random and sell him one?

sparky:
hi
yes then when he came back suggest going out to repair
and knock the cost of pic-tube of thats what our old firm
did in the 70's some times got a sale
