Just list it everywhere, I'm not sure.. was the video that we saw on YouTube, your radio? If so, it's pristine.

Again, it's worth whatever someone will pay, I still have mine in the graveyard in the garage and I can imagine going in there getting all Ticky with a shovel and finding it. Not going to do it for 25 bucks and maybe I could restore it myself but ..

Properly listed, take the highest bidder. If I had the radio that was in that video on YouTube. I would be playing with it right now and I wouldn't sell it for a thousand bucks. If that helps.

Yes, the radio is that one in YouTube vid. In your opinion how much? Just to have a number…
I appreciate your reply but I'm going to stick to what I said. You will get whatever someone will pay. If I was you, I would not sell it. If you need to sell it, you'll get what someone will pay.

Looking at that radio in the video and with my history of close to 60 years monitoring.. pick something else in your house to sell.. I would keep it at any cost.

If you absolutely have to sell it because you've sold all your furniture and all your belongings and you can't pay your mortgage, people will try to rip you off but don't accept less than $250 or $300 and that will be a steal.

You'll probably sell it within a couple of days using that video, I'll probably buy it, even though I don't need it. Don't know how else to say this.

Bad time to sell in a very bad economy with high inflation and Christmas time. You might want to wait till inflation gets higher and it's going to. The false narrative that inflation is going down is wrong. You think gas is going down now? Haha. No demand as businesses falling off a cliff. Supply will deliberately, by design, dry up, increasing the price.

We haven't reached the highs in gas prices and we haven't reached the lows in the stock market. Now is not the time to sell.

This one's on you. List It for $250. Should work out pretty good for you. Take what someone will give you.

I'm going to think that you probably have one of the nicest original Electra Bearcat 100s in existence.

Sorry to overthink but I'm a long long time investor who is now retired.

I brought my bc100 from JCPenney Penney’s found it in the back of the store in the returns department gave about 150.00 for
it and I still have it
then a couple of years later I brought a hx1000 regency and I still have that radio
in my 45+ years the only radio I ever got rid of was the regency hx2000 and that was the
biggest piece of junk I ever brought there was a big difference between the hx1000 and the hx2000
