You may as well put look alike glassware in the bar, if you intend to use it as a bar, or if the original stuff is missing. It seems kind of stupid to pay $40+ a piece for tumblers and other glasses just because they are radiobar originals when the originals weren't exactly high end glassware to start with. You could fill the thing with Bohemian or Irish crystal, even at full retail, cheaper then with Radiobar glassware. Most of the RadioBars you see came with a 620 chassis, which is a decent performing set, but hardly a top end model, so I don't really understand the prices people seem to pay for them.
