I would probably pay $85 if it were on eBay or a swapmeet.
Purely nominal haggling to drop it to $75-$80.....but personally I think the price is good.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

These old radios are always two projects in one.

$85 seems OK to me also, except the finish seems bummed up near the top of the arch, I'd want to look a little closer and see what was going on with that. Otherwise it has nice lines for a mid-size cathedral or mantel set. I've got one in near-mint original condition and it's a beautiful set. I'd also be very careful removing that price sticker.
