ARG79 Regentone Radiogram. Value? - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

1983pacman · 26th Jan 2021, 12:29 am

Hello my fellow radiotherapists,

I am in desperate need of your divine expertise.

I have an ARG79 Regentone Radiogram and am trying to get a price for him.

It is a beloved item that it was kept in the family for years.

It may or may not be in working order but would like to give him a new home.

Any ideas where I should look at as I can't seem to find any for sale?

Thank you so much for your time and hope to have news from you soon.

Internet search brought up via PicClick an average price of £57. Depends on how much work on the electronics or cabinet is needed of course.

A nice unit but the market for this is very small. Maybe those who will buy just it for the cabinet to "re-purpose" or an enthusiast who will fully restore it. Bear in mind, if it is unaltered, you cannot play Stereo records on it without modification.
