Default Re: Eddystone Model 850/2

Hi,

It all depends what you want the set for. If it's just an investment on a shelf,
that's fine, - but 5K$!. And they aren't a bad set either, but they won't do anything
that a LF converter in front of a modern radio can't.

Now, if you want a rare Eddystone, try the ECR. I had a play with one about 20 years ago,
and it really wasn't very good. but it still sold a few weeks later for £1000.
The new owner had no hesitation in parting with the money, (regretfully not to me!),
having come over especially from Scandinavia to buy it.

I wonder if he's still got it! - I bet its worth more than £5000 now, let alone dollars.

Kind regards
Dave
