Used ST style #45s are not as valuable as one would think, more then the #26s and #27s in the rest of the set of course. However I have heard of people substituting 1619 tubes for them, which is a WW2 vintage 2.5 volt 6L6, when needed. If the set is complete, meaning the original phonograph is still intact with it's tone arm, then it's probably worth the $55 if you like it, bring a friend (or two), a tool kit, an an appliance dolly, because those sets are heavy.
