There probably won't be that much repair history on this set as I believe Sharp's repair policy is chassis swap (or at least it was) for warranty. I have not seen one in quite a while. The last one I saw actually had defective convergence amp IC's but I still had to replace the chassis as per Sharp's warranty policy.
