It seemed too bothersome to list them and manage visitations  
for people to see them. Power-hungry & heat-generating CRTs  
were/are simply outclassed by LCD screens.

I do still have one 17" and 21" CRT though. The idea was to  
offer them to someone who needs one for occassional use.

I still have my first Sony Trinitron TV, 20", from the late  
80s. I paid a small fortune for that thing. But it too must go.
