Hey yall, I need some help with a Philco Cabinet that my friend just bought

If this indeed a VOM player, then this is the place to go

ANd Gary Stork, the owner, is your guy.

This will have all the docs (not free) and most parts.


I recently (more or less a year ago) restored one. The mechanics is involved but not impossible to understand, even for mechanically challenged guy like myself, as long as the manuals and service guides are carefully studied.

Now as for the best options, if the guy is willing to take it back and give all or most of the money back, I would jump on it. What she paid is obscene and my honest opinion, she was...not scammed, but taken advantage of as an uninformed person.

Then she could shop for a similar unit if desired for a fraction (these should never go for more than $50 and even that on a very good market day; many will give it for free). Then the money can go towards repairs.

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.
