Raytheon Porthole at CC-AWA meet ...

Asking price, negotiable, was $325 - no takers. So what do you think it was really worth. The set was basically "as found" and untouched. Here is a photo I took:

I was there, saw it, $125-135 max.

Is that a 12" set?
I would agree, $125-$135 as is.

Now if it was this 10" Raytheon Porthole even his asking price might not be out of line.

I'm relatively new to TV collecting .... so why is that 10" more valuable?
Is it because of its overall size? Rarity? Because it has a 10" picture tube?

My valuation was somewhat tongue in cheek, but I'd bet if you put a nice 10DX24 on eBay you'd get that no problem.

Something about a stepped cabinet I guess.
I also think it is much more scarce than the M-110* sets.
