Projector: Epson PowerLite Home 20 LCD 16:9 480p - $600

[Mark Strube]

I'm selling this because I'm looking to upgrade to a 720p projector. Now don't expect to get an HD-looking image out of this, but HD channels do look nice, and this is perfect for viewing DVD's, since the actual resolution on the projector is exactly that of an anamorphic widescreen DVD (854x480). The lamp usage is under 110 hours. The projection element inside the projector is slighty tilted. (This is just a design flaw.) If you adjust the projector so the top of the image is completely level with the top of your screen, it'll go about 1 inch off the bottom of the screen on one side (with an 80" screen). This isn't really noticeable or a big deal if you've got a screen with a proper black border around it.

You can find more information about the specs of the projector from these sites:

I'm trying to sell here first since it'd be nice to have a local buyer where I don't have to bother with shipping and listing on eBay. I no longer have the original box, but I've got the projector, the remote, the lens cap, and the power cable... and I could probably dig up the manual. I'll accept payment with cash or PayPal. I'd prefer to stay away from checks or money orders.

If you have any questions, just reply here! And if you're an interested buyer, feel free to PM me! If I don't get any interest within a few days I'll probably list this on Craigslist next. After that, it's the dreaded eBay.
