Hey everyone,
These Philco's keep popping up around me Icon_crazy !
I could use a little advise. There is a 37-650 in a shop near me. It appears to be in fair original condition and other than someones attempt to splice in a new cord, it looks to be unmolested. No major cabinet damage. Enough finish is missing that I would have to redo the cabinet. One tube is broken and the RF mounts are shot and the band knob is not correct. other than that it looks like it would clean up nice.
They are asking $150.00 but would take $125.00 for it. Does anyone have any opinions or input? I'm better at the older sets. Would this be considered a good price for this model? Or am I just CRAZY!!!!!!!
Thanks,
Kevin
