Edison Walnut Upright

[antique1973]

You will know how much an Edison C 150 is worth when you try to sell one. In restorable condition $150 and in good shape $200 tops, on craigslist. The one under discussion is probably not restorable. I have my eye on this local beauty but the seller has no idea what it is and the price is a fabrication.



It appears as I check my post that the feet on the B250 are cut off, making the thing garbage.

I don't know what it is, but 99% of the machines on the San Diego CL lately are shot-out
or destroyed somehow. Except of course the machines I have for sale.

I would agree with you on the price of a mahogany C150. A nice oak one would maybe go a bit higher. I don't think $575 is unreasonable for a nice A or B250. This one has definitely got some problems... especially with the legs. Given what you see in the poor quality craigslist pictures I'm sure better quality pics or better yet a personal inspection would reveal many more scratches, dings and mechanical problems. I'd pass on it too. Too many other things that could occupy that space.
