Re: Radiograms. Will they ever be wanted?
A Decca Decola, a Marconi Q286 which was free on the forum and had been through a couple of hands already but is now happily working again, and two halves of an HMV 540AC (the last with some woodworm damage cost £5 on ebay and mine was the only bid).
The Decola has some value but I suspect this is more to do with the parts than the whole. It's a superb and large machine and I'm trying to clear the backlog to start on it although I have to say that Arundel looks even more spectacular.
The drop in prices for 30's wooden sets and radiograms is quite noticeable even over the 3 years I have gained an interest. I am sure this is to do with the accessability of ebay and I wonder if before this there was a steady flow of radios sent to landfill.
