Default For Sale National SW3's

I have 3 excellent National SW3's complete with tubes and coils. Have
42 coils and 18 tubes. No power supplies.
These units were bought from a collector about 15 years ago and have
been in storage since then. Moving to
South America and can't take all the "anchors". Will sell the radio
individually with some coils but not all coils
or tubes with one radio. Will not sell the coils without a radio. I
can send you some high resolution photos if
interested. Please don't ask if not really interested in buying I
don't have time to waste. Accept REASONABLE
offers for one or the lot. I have a fair idea of the market value so
please don't make a silly offer as has happened
when I advertised on a couple of other lists. Thanks. Tony W4OI

If you do not want a "silly offer" then provide a price or a price
range that you are looking for. Ditto for "REASONABLE" offers. What
may be reasonable to you as a seller may not be reasonable to others
as buyers. While you may "have a fair idea of the market value",
interested buyers may not.

Sure thing. For me, $20 is reasonable, since that is about how much fun I
would have
getting an old radio working and pretending it was 1930 to see what I could
hear. And then sitting it under the bench to put my dirty boots on.

On the other hand to someone else that radio might be worth $500 because it
is just exactly what he needs to complete his collection and besides that
he never saw three of them sitting on the bench side by side.

It all depends........

So give at least a starting price if you are going to accept bids.

I would think that any "interested buyer" would know what the market
value might be or
they could do some research. I also didn't request nonsensical
responses from people
like you who seem to hang around reflectors with nothing else to do.
Get a life.

Let me see:

1. you state that you do not want any one to ask if they are not
really interested and that your time is more valuable than your
potential customers - "Please don't ask if not really interested in
buying I don't have time to waste."

2. you imply that you have a price in mind for the lot - "I have a
fair idea of the market value so please don't make a silly offer as
has happened when I advertised on a couple of other lists."

yet when I suggest that you might provide your potential customers
(including me) with additional information so that they do not "waste
your time", you tell me to get a life.

I was interested in the lot to the point of making an offer in the
high 3 digits, but not anymore. 73's, and good luck.
