WHICH 690 IS BEST BET?
#14

Unfortunately, it's been easier to find the 15 tube brand Z offerings (at least the 38 model) around my area than the Philcos. Right now the prices are out of whack anyways. Seems if a Philco around here is a console, it automatically goes up to $95 in spite of condition. Almost afraid to see what a 37 or 38-116 would bring right now. Of course it it is an early 40's Philco, expect an asking price of $100 on up around here right now. Bleah.

No matter where you go, there you are.
