film wants to rent my Philco Danish Modern TV

[pactv]

A top-notch company wants to rent my original Philco Predicta Danish Modern/Continental TV for a documentary and I would like to know its value. I've searched the Internet with no luck.

They want it for two days and I need to know what to insure it for.

It doesn't work (they don't care) but it's in great condition.

Thanks in advance.

Warning: the risk of damage is not insignificant. If you care about the set at all, I would have them insure it for a ridiculously high amount. They can afford it.

Or, if you're not in love with it, tell 'em you prefer to sell it outright, again at a price that makes you very, very happy. I have sold a couple of insignificant items to production companies at prices that would make coffee come out your nose.

Just my $0.02.

You confirmed what I was thinking. My Dad was the original buyer and it has been in my family ever since, so I am not going to risk having it damaged.

Thank you so much. I'll just swallow and enjoy my coffee and watch my blank TV.

Do they want it for Mad Men?

Never mind, you said it was for a Documentary.
