Philco 89
#3

Offer him $35 or $40 for it, veneer missing and a bad finish is always a good way to get a few $$ taken off, hopefull the knobs that are there are the correct ones along with the speaker. I take it that this is a floor model 89 and not a cathedral? The next question is do you like it? Is there anything about it you don't like? Could you see yourself restoring the set and living with it for at least a few years? You shouldn't buy a floor model just because it's cheap, otherwise you may get stuck with a garage and house full of stuff you don't really want and not have room for things you would rather have. Floor models are like four door sedans, they are more expensive to restore then a table model version of the same set, aren't worth any more, and are harder to sell.
Regards
Arran
