Now that LACPUG, DMALA and the Gallery Theatre have a new projector,
we are selling the old Sanyo PLC-XF35NL projector. Cost is only $1200
OBO. I have just had it checked out and cleaned up by Tek Media Group in
Burbank and it is in good working condition.
This projector is perfect for large conference rooms and/or churches and
more large spaces. It’s only been used a few times a month for 12 years
at the Gallery Theatre in Hollywood. I prefer local pick up only.
More information on this projector can be found here:
