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!
That's certainly possible. I think the big reason neither of these machines have moved is because the potential market here on the forum is a lot smaller than it is on eBay and elsewhere. That said, I will be moving both of these machines to eBay in the coming weeks if I don't get any more interest here. I'd rather sell to someone here, but at the end of the day, these wonderful machines both need to find new homes.

Delivery may be available to the Wayne, NJ show. Please contact me if you are interested. If no interest is shown before next weekend, the B-275 will be listed on eBay. It's a very scarce machine, and I expect it to do well.

Best Wishes,

Garret

The B-275 has been reserved. It's just as well, as it's quite nice! :D

The A-250 is still available. I will likely list it on eBay at the end of the month if there is still no interest.

About time! Somebody got a very nice machine and a fairly rare one at that for a very reasonable price. The A250 is also a good deal. If I did not have more than one already, I'd be tempted.

The A-250 is still available. I will now include a small assortment of Edison Disc records with it, and will lower the price to $450, which is what I paid for it 10 years ago. I have over $575 in it, from new Diamond, new diaphragm, proper new crank, etc., etc. It is a really nice example, and really deserves a good home. The A-250 doesn't show up that often, and very rarely show up in the condition this one is in, ready to go, especially at this price!

This fine Edison A-250 is still available. It really needs a good home at this point. The advertised price of $450 is a steal, considering you have to do nothing to get it playing and displaying nicely in your home.

Garret,
If we could figure a way to get the 250 to NC I will buy it. Wonderful machines.
