Re: Interesting cabinet
$500 was a bargain... that may be a $10,000 cabinet.

Re: Interesting cabinet
Hello,
Looks like someone clued the seller into what the value of the cabinet might be. Price has now been increased to $3000.00 O.B.O

Doesn't that warm your heart. To me a seller has every opportunity to research what they have for sale. Once a price is made they should stick with it and not go back on their word. Just my thoughts.

Re: Interesting cabinet
Well, I guess they backed out of the initial deal (not with me) and had many offers. Can't say as I blame them.

Re: Interesting cabinet
$3,000 is still a bargain... when have you ever seen one of these? Compare that to how many Victor VI machines you have seen. This cabinet is rarer than most high end machines...

Re: Interesting cabinet
The only sold note, that I have archived, is from eBay in 2008.
It was a mahogany disc cabinet that needed some work, and sold out of Union, IL for $1276.

I emailed a couple times after it was listed and got no response. I live 20 miles away. It was just feelers for the best price.
