The prices for this seller's items are definitely out of line for their condition. They're unrestored, as found, relics. How we got onto the subject of those reproductions (which I too wouldn't ever buy) is a mystery to me. They are an entirely different issue. You wouldn't really rather have an old beat up piece o' junk, you just don't hold it in contempt like you do the repro. But you still don't buy it. Not for $150! Fully restored antique radios do command premium prices, as they should, but the example I posted above is not especially desirable in any condition. It is a $5 Goodwill item that could become worth somewhere near money this seller wants for it if it were both cosmetically and electronically restored.
