This is what alot of us electronics repair guys use to degauss picture tubes. He even made a lengthy explaination on it, that saved me a lot of typing.

Yikes 120 dollars just to pick it up? ;_;
If you'd rather not degauss the screen yourself, I'm pretty sure it'll be cheaper to take it to a local repair shop. For a job like that I might even do it for free provided you drag down the tv yourself.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The other alternative is to find an LCD set that's about the same size as my old one (but with 720p as a bonus), but at a price mostly accomodated by how much I can get off the TV (about $500. I'm willing to go as high as $800).

The properties of the device is the same as the one Ulysses provided. But much less dangerous, in my opinion.

Well, if you read his instructions (its in the item description) its a simple process of basically waving the ring in a circular motion around all corners of the tv; just remember to pull the ring away slowly afterwards.
I think its simple enough for anyone to do. Also you have the benefit of not pointing a power drill in front of your tv

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hmm I haven't seen any at wally world myself. But now that I think of it you might find something very similar at radioshack.

Otherwise, yes just get the one on ebay.

(...oh god I just noticed his shipping price is not cheap.)

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
