Philco 37-116X What's The Price Point?
#5

(03-22-2012, 06:20 PM)Gene Pederson Wrote:  I see a couple of the members have recently picked up model 116's. There is a 37-116X available for $195. Is this reasonable? My 2005 Slusser's lists it at $200-230. Looks to be in decent shape, no visible tears on the grill cloth, but the chassis has been attached using a metal strap at each end. It's a 2+ hr drive each way so $50 in fuel. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks,

I picked up my 37-116X last summer. Mine is also in very good original but non-working condition. I paid $175 plus about a 130 mile round trip. Great set, just a little too intimidated by the thing to start working on it! Good luck!
