32" Roku. Knocked it right over and the a screen cracked. It was an accident, but fuck. I know I'm tripping over $130 and she did say she'll pay me back, but she already owes me money as it is.

My friend had logged into Amazon Prime before he moved away. So that's gone too. And this was the only tv I have that connects to a VCR. Gonna have to go out and find a new set. Ugh I'd argue that the effort and missing Amazon movies make it slightly more valuable than retail price.

The only tv that could connect your vcr AND it had Amazon on it? Weird. Was it a smart tv? I'm confused.

She's in debt. I usually don't ask her to pay me back, but this actually pissed me off. I went off on her and feel like yelling more, but I know that's not right. I came here to vent.

Anyone have experience getting screen repaired?

For a 130 dollar TV? It'll likely cost more then that to fix the screen.

Just get a new one. My TV from last year was 300 for a 42 inch.

Ugh i already have a bigger better tv. But I liked to have this second one for upstairs. I don't want to spend more on a tv.

This whole incident is so God damn unnecessary. Waste of money, waste of property, and would be a waste of time trying to fix it or buy a new one. Fuck

I dunno. Is it easy to find tvs that can use a vcr and connect to Amazon prime? Sounds like TC's best bet is to go searching for used tvs.

She threw a Wii remote at the TV didn't she

No she tipped it over trying to move things around. She asked me for help prior to breaking the tv. I said hold up I'll be there. 2 seconds later she tries anyway and fucking knocks it to the floor. Holy shit how

With any luck you can find a decade old TV for free on Craigslist. Impossible to sell nowadays anyway so people are willing to offload to anyone who can pick it up.

TC has to spend about 200-300$ to replace the TV.
200$ if just want a standard HDTV that isn't smart.

Or he could just do with 1 TV for a bit, and buy an RCA adapter for the VCR. Just providing an alternative.

Obviously I don't think he's in jersey but this was posted 2 hours ago. It really is just as easy as waiting for a free TV to be put online.

why does he have to go to the house. something is suspicious. TC could get ended right then and there just for coming by.
this is why one has to do this at the police station they have a parking lot for transactions.

Still mad. She's not made of money. I want her to save up so she can pay bills, student loans, etc. I feel guilty to have her pay me back for everything.

Should I let it slide or what.

I'm poor and live in workforce housing and I still think TC is whack for flipping out over $130 television.

Like, if she broke a nice, big, $700 4K TV I could see it, but in this case just buy a new one on Amazon for fucks sake lol.
