Victor Victrola XII

Post by Victrolacollector »

There are a couple of Victrola VV-XI machines on e-bay....Are these the values of these machines? or are they overpriced?

These are Victrola XII's, and they are rare. The price of the first one is ridiculous, about 4 times of the value. The second one is what they would sell when prices were good. I'm guessing about $1000.00 more or less in today's market.

Gotta agree here. I paid about $800 for mine at auction two years ago in pretty good shape. 4K puts the first one up there with the $2000 VV-50.

The prospective seller of the first one is just dreamin' big dreams. The second is being offered by the same rascal who parted out a XII about a year ago, which was the subject of this thread: http://forum.talkingmachine.info/viewto ... &hilit=XII

He still has the empty case from the one he parted out, offered now at a starting bid of $499. Last year he was trying for $749 for the same empty case. Though he's asking too much for the complete machine, at least he hasn't parted it out...yet. Maybe he's learned that crime doesn't pay?
