Vienna, VA, on the west side of D.C. Zip code is 22181. I hope that helps!

These are still available! The price is right!

Both of these fine phonographs located near Washington, D.C. will be finding their way to eBay soon unless anyone expresses serious interest in them. Carpe diem...these won't last forever at these extremely fair prices!

I'm really surprised by the lack of interest. Neither of these machines show up on a regular basis, especially in decent condition. What's the deal? Is nobody collecting Edison Diamond Discs these days?

Some prolific posters in this forum post many items for sale, pushing my advertisement off of this page. I'm just trying to keep my ad visible.

I really don't see why these have not sold. Two very interesting and fairly rare machines at reasonable prices.

Well, in my case, it's because although local, and although interested (to put it mildly), I have no space in the house for more phonographs! I'd have to get rid of something (or more properly, as my wife has directed, two somethings) to buy one of these machines, and life is just too crazy to undertake selling anything as big as an upright phono right now.

So, to the befuddled seller: sometimes something that ought to sell in a trice will fail to find a buyer through no fault whatever of its own!
