Hi,

I have a working B714 mulitwave radio and was wondering how valuable it is. Can anyone give me a rough idea?

Your typical AA5 radio with clock.
Doubt it is very valuable. I am not too knowledgeable with these, my guess is 50 bucks give or take, depending on condition.
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.

Not very valuable. More like $20-30, tops, I think.

Welcome to the Phorum!!  A restored B714 that looked to be in pretty good shape sold for $59 on Ebay in Jan 2015 with 1 bid. 
Cheers,
Bob
