Default Re: Scrap or Save?

I had a similar situation with an old Grundig tape recorder a few years ago. No-one wanted it - or I guess the postage costs alone put most people off. It wasn't particularly collectable, not a high end unit, not in great condition, no appeal basically. I scrapped it and kept the valves.

We shouldn't become overly precious about and feel obliged to store laissez faire vintage items that were sold in their thousands and as i say, no-one else wants to take off our hands.
