if you're looking to sell this machine here, you should really post some photos. I'm not sure whether you noticed, but there was another 130 recently listed here that sold for about 600 that was completely restored and in very nice shape, so you might want to base your price around that, considering that yours, as you say, needs some work. otherwise, if you're just entertaining offers until you get one you like, why don't you just use ebay?

Ok well as I stated I cannot get them to load on this forum and as clearly stated simply email me and I will respond with high resolution photos most people are pretty familiar with email these days. I can appreciate your interest and I have had it on eBay with an offer of $450 I decided after the fees and such this was not enough. I also appreciate you letting me know what recent one sold for on here and I have a standing offer of $400 from someone, I am assuming that is on this forum.
The fact is the model is rare it's not oak but hey I am unemployed and don't really want to get rid of it so if it happens great if not, oh well.

I have an offer for $250 to rip the guts out and leave the shell of the Victor come on people I am not an expert on these things but I know what things are worth I am not interested in letting anyone tear it apart you want it or you don't.

Am I seeing things clearly or was this Victrola actually painted white with avacado green trim at one time or another ???????? I hope not.

Come on people, you know what things are worth? You said you had a standing offer of 400, now you're talking about an offer of 250... If this machine is painted the way bk mentioned, then you'd be lucky to get that 250. Why don't you post some more photos, you already posted one, it can't be that difficult.

This is the same machine that has been on Terre Haute Craigslist for eons with no photos there, either.

Yes brianu, the seller emailed me a couple of photos. One shows the lid brush-painted white with what appears to be 1970's Avacado green accents - and poorly done at that! What a shame, but with careful resoration it can be brought back,,,, maybe not.
