Please give me some advice to determine the value of a Philco Stereo. I believe it was purchased new around 1964 and it is in very good condition. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Note from site admin: Sorry, but the photo which was attached to this post is no longer available.

It's definitely from the early 1960s, if you had a model number we could tell for sure because from 1954 onward Philco used a letter to designate the model year. Unfortunately your unit isn't very valuable at all, someone may buy it to play records on but it has little collectible value, but probably more then your average floor model cabinet stereo. My guess is that you would have trouble getting any more then $40 for it if everything works, but you never know.
Regards
Arran
