Important — Please Read Before Buying

These radios are vintage/used electronic items, often decades old. Please understand the following before purchasing:

Tested vs. Untested: If a radio is listed as “tested and working,” it powered on and functioned at the time of testing. However, vintage electronics can fail unexpectedly due to age, aging components (capacitors, tubes, wiring), shipping vibration, or environmental changes. I cannot guarantee continued operation after the item leaves my hands.

Sold As-Is: All radios are sold as-is with no warranty, expressed or implied. What you see in the photos and read in the description is what you get.

Cosmetic Condition: These are old items and will show signs of age — wear, scratches, fading, dust, or minor flaws — even when not specifically mentioned. Please review all photos carefully, as photos are part of the description.

Restoration Note: Vintage radios often benefit from servicing by a qualified technician (recapping, tube replacement, alignment) before regular use. Buyers should factor this into their purchase decision.

Returns: Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery. Buyer pays return shipping. Item must be returned in the same condition it was received, with all original packaging. Refund issued once the item is received and inspected.

Questions: Please ask any questions before bidding or buying. I’m happy to provide additional photos or details.
