The person who posted this advertisement simply wants to get rid of their 36" Toshiba TV, which they say is in excellent condition. This time of year, people upgrade their electronics and clear out the old stuff. Sometimes charities get overwhelmed with the same types of products and do not accept them. In this case, the television needs a digital converter box. These sell for about $25 on ebay, or your local cable company can provide one. Several years ago, this television would have sold for over three hundred dollars easily. This television would be a cheap alternative to a new one for a playroom, workroom, or other space.
The person listing this item describes it as solid wood and very heavy. To me, that translates to valuable, durable, and versatile. This item could be refinished to a different color and you could add new hardware. For whatever reason, the owner has gotten tired of it. Being frugal sometimes means that you must find value in things that other people are willing to discard. It may mean cleaning and refinishing a product like this to make it your own. Once you find a piece like this, it should last a long time, when treated with care.
