I've been debating for months about when to upgrade my Sanyo TV set, which I purchased off of a clearance rack at a Texas Walmart in 1997. It's been moved across the country and back, and even has a permanent footprint on the top of it (which probably happened during one of the moves). Despite the wear and tear, it still works like new.
As much as I would love a new TV set, I haven't found a good enough reason to replace my Sanyo. And this video about electronic waste from 60 Minutes has convinced me to keep the Sanyo for a little while longer.
For now, I'll stick to buying things that biodegrade more easily and have less packaging - like jeans.
