That's a good ball park figure

I bought a very similar one for £50 a few years ago from a street market, but its cabinet was in far better condition than yours with no delamination etc, and if anything, vintage radio prices have dropped since then: https://www.vintage-radio.net/forum/...ad.php?t=97968

I thought that was a good price, but it was there for weeks before I succumbed and bought it (while my wife was at work!), so the market for these is obviously small.

Well done for saving it, too many people would have just dumped it. Where did it come from?

Nick.
