That's quite an improvement on the £1 I paid for mine, at an auction circa 1990.
Main thing with any accumulation of vintage electronics is to make sure as a minimum that it gets put into an auction, pretty much any auction. Buyers will find it, some money will be made, most of the items will get to rattle around the planet for a while longer and be treated however the denizens of the future care to treat them. I'll be puzzling over what provisions to make for a (non-technical) book collection here, where the need will be to call in a dealer capable of distinguishing titles that regularly sell for three-figure sums from those the local auction room tries and often fails to flog off several tea-chests full at a time, but radios and suchlike don't go unrecognised these days and I'm surprised how something like the going rate is raised for them even at the smallest of local auctions.
