Has anyone noticed that we usually don't give that Tim guy any credit? :lol:
I make an effort to give credit to the source, although I admittedly forget sometimes.

...And THIS is why I don't like to involve myself in appraisals. Here is the exact PM I sent to Rich on Friday 1/22/16 in reply to his PM inquiry:

Hi Rich,

They do turn up on occasion. I have 2 of them in my basement right now, but unfortunately they're mahogany. I've seen them at shows in the $300-$500 range. Condition is important, as always.

Best,
George


"I've seen them at shows in the $300-$500 range." Why is the lower estimate so often ignored?

Finally (sigh), when copying photos or captions from our books without permission to post on the Internet, could we at least credit the source? (In this case, Antique Phonograph Gadgets, Gizmos, & Gimmicks.)

Am I being unreasonable? :roll:

George P.
Absolutely not. Some just don't seem to get it.

George

You are not only being reasonable but expecting good manners which many seem to have forgotten in this day and age of instant messaging.

Good for you and please keep participating in the forum as there are many of us who enjoy thoughtful comments and sharing of knowledge and experience, no matter where it comes from

Bruce
