With a zero feedback I would only bid if I could pickup in person and pay at pickup. All assuming this will sell for a good amount of money.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe even examine it BEFORE bidding!alang wrote:With a zero feedback I would only bid if I could pickup in person and pay at pickup. All assuming this will sell for a good amount of money.

Re: Tin Foil Machine
It should be covered by EBay Buyer Protection. So, what is it worth??

Re: Tin Foil Machine
That's tough to say, I think. It really depends on how much someone wants a tin foil phono in their collection. One like this, but in apparent better condition was listed a year ago on eBAY for $1950, but shows "0" bids. I couldn't find any other recent listings to determine a value.hearsedriver wrote:It should be covered by EBay Buyer Protection. So, what is it worth??

Re: Tin Foil Machine
It's not an Elmer Jones replica, either. Mine has his name molded into the bottom of the base.

Re: Tin Foil Machine
Not me, I thought the price was to high for an incomplete machine. That is unless you happen to have the missing parts.
