It's refinished with a new decal.

I thought you were referring to a condo in Florida...

How much does that devalue the machine?Phonofreak wrote:It's refinished with a new decal.

Re: Edison Home Phonograph in Daytona.
It's hard to say about devaluation, so I am basing this on opinion. If this has an all original finish, decal, and pin stripping, then $450.00 would be a fair price. This re-finish looks like polyurethane or some kind of "plastic" finish. The decal looks like those 1960-70's decals that really stick out a mile away. With all the re-work, I would say $200-250, and that's being generous. If you are looking for a nice long case Home, I'm sure one of the Forum members can help you out.

Also, if this machine is a "2-minute-only", that lowers the value a bit.
