BARCO GRAPHICS 808 FOR SALE! VERY GOOD CONDITION
This projector is very easy to setup and extremely stable. I only tweak convergence a few times a year!
It was purchased with VDC rebuilt tubes about 18 months ago. The projector came from a local reputable CRT seller (Chuchuf-AVS Forum). He thoroughly checks and refurbishes all projectors prior to sell and I have had zero problems since purchase. Note that resellers are typically listing these on EBAY for $3,000 so I feel my price is more than reasonable. The tubes alone may be worth about $1500.
It has had light use and by my estimates I might have put about 2000 hours tops on the tubes. They should be good for 6000-8000 more hours.
I see no wear on the tubes and I switch back and forth between a 16:9 and 4:3 configuration to try to evenly wear the tubes. Pictures of tubes will be provided upon serious inquiries. (I am still using this sucker and don't want to go through the trouble of taking off the lenses for nothing folks)
I will ship and estimate shipping costs of about $270 continental US only. But I would prefer to deal locally so you can see the picture I get with a hi def signal and my HTPC with dvd's and FFDshow!
Cosmetically the case is perfect except the control panel cover is missing (as is true with almost all for resale). Email or PM me for pictures.
Thanks, Brian
