struck paydirt today
#1

Got a call from a gentleman yesterday who had a bunch of his dads radio stuff that he wanted to get rid of.
He sent me a list and a price sheet.
Prices were unbelievable.
Plus he lived 7 miles from my house.
Came home with a zenith H500 transoceanic working good, an old early 30's Airline Beehive type table radio(large)working,a Philco model37- 60 table radio working good and re-finished, a philco 41-230 bakelite that looks new, and a hickok model 800 tube tester working great and looking great too, along with a Precision apparatus model 912 working and looking great plus a box of tubes for $120.
Will keep a few things and peddle the rest I guess.
He also had a bunch of Atwater Kent table radios and speakers that could be bought cheap.
Worthwhile trip I guess.
Just had to share this as it was so unbelievable.
