I picked up this RCA 98K2 console for $45 at a flea market over the weekend. It was marked $85; but, I know the vendor and he said I could have it for $65. Then, I ended up helping him unload two pick-up loads of other stuff and then he said he'd drop it to $55 for helping him. Then, he thought and said $55 was too much and that I could have it for $45.

The cabinet does have numerous scratches and the joints need to be reglued. The pushbuttons are missing and I hope I can find some replacements, either original or repro ones. I have not pulled the chassis; but, I suspect it will be a routine restoration. I've seen a lot worse for a lot more than $45. Oh, and it does have a tuning eye!
