Peter,

No one offers it to me for the acceptable price either.
But I find the price for this set grossly inflated. It's a fad, some people are willing to pay it, and, given the scarcity, I guess this is what the market is. The market is always right.
If I find one at a curb somewhere, this, I guess, is the only chance for me to own one.
If i find two, I will let you know. Though the shipping charges could be a b**ch.

Peter, maybe it's because our consoles look so much like New York City skyscrapers. I once met a fellow in my area who restored consoles. I toured his home and in addition to a console in every room plus the hallway he had a separate bedroom set up as a display room. It was full of Zenith consoles, 1920s coffin radios and horn speakers. Reminded me of Manhattan. It was overwhelming.

RodB, I can only imagine it ... But it is so nice to feel that I am not alone and that there are other crazy people in the world who have radio consoles in every room. Icon_mrgreen
