There are more 'floating' about then indicated!
I found a buyer for one last year, in the state of Washington, and there's another in the Metro area. New York and California were perfect places for these. When they end up in Mid-Century design homes and shows, they do not get noticed by TV collectors.
Although there's a reference to $7,300 these actually retail around $3,500 to $4,500. If you are lucky enough to find the reference, one sold on ebay a year or two ago, for about $4,000--it had 2 real bidders I seem to remember. I had done research on the $7,300 price, and it was a quirk.
These usually turn up in great condition, sometimes even working (!), with a split or two in the wood. I guess if you cold afford one, and had room for it, you didin't toss it into the basement with a pile of old books--the damn things are livingroom wall sized.
