A Walkman PSA

If your Walkman came with a belt clip pouch. Just know if you use it all the time it could rub off the Walkman logo which I got to learn first hand. Had this wokman for 6 years after a few years of using it on bike rides and at the gym its pouch, caused part of the Walkman logo to rub away

I found this today new amongst other demo tapes.

When thrifting today I picked up a lot of VHS tapes. They were a bunch of Disney tapes that said demo tape on it and this one was brand new

Can't decide what TV to get rid of

I think I know which one I should get rid of, but I want your guys's opinion. I rather not get rid of any but I need to down size

I like the Samsung because it has no purity issues when playing 8-bit games but I think it's the TV to get rid of

The Samsung is a 20-in

The screen is a bit off-centered I think it has a divergence issue. For example, the color red tends to bleed. Picture is also a bit blurry and sharpening the image just causes artifacts

Vcr doesn't work in cosmetically a bit of dings and scratches on the housing

The Panasonic is a 24-in

The screen seems to be perfectly centered, no overscan either

The bottom left hand corner of the screen seems to be out of focus mostly notable when playing Sonic games where the life counter is

The other issue with the screen is it has a purity issue when playing bright 8-bit games. I tried turning down the brightness and contrast it helped but did not get rid of it completely

Vcr works and cosmetically. It's almost pristine other than a Nick on the bottom of the chassis and a faint hairline scratch on the glass

I know I'm probably a bit OCD but when I was cleaning the screen I noticed there's a scratch in the middle of the screen that looks like a thin hair. From what I can tell it's not noticeable while using it. I was tempted to try to buff it out but I'm wondering should I just leave it alone before I make the situation worse
