Saw this at a sale today,
$800.00, it'll be half that tomorrow.
Comes with the crank, I cranked it up and plays fine.
Good buy?

Looks like a Victor P and, yes, it's a good buy at $400. Jerry Blais

The end of the horn speaker is kind of bent up.

That's not an RCA but a Victor Talking Machine--much better!
The horn can be straightened by a musical instrument repairman. A Victor P is iconic, classy, and restorable, and that one looks nice. Go ahead and I'd say do it!

$400 is a great price considering it has what appears to be the original record hold down. That would cost most of the $400 by itself.
