Default Ferrograph series 4A value

Hi All

New here as I've just been asked by my bosses dad to see if I can Sell an old Mk 4A Ferrograph. Its a bit grubby and musty from being in the loft for ages. I'm also having trouble finding a 22mm plug to fit to even see if it works! it worked when put in the loft.

Any ideas on value please ?

Many thanks.

Sold prices on ebay indicate £80 - £150 obviously depending on condition "Was working but can't test as no mains lead" is a bit of turn off as is collection only.

Bulgin mains connectors are available but quite expensive.

And best not to plug it in if it's not been used for years.

A genuine "Untested" is always better than "Tested, worked for a few seconds before letting smoke out".

Genuine untested yes, quick try, smoke, better lose the mains lead, not so much.

Not in any way suggesting this is the case here, obviously.
