Will virgin, unmolested sets be worth more? I doubt it.
Take vintage autos for example. Even those that are garaged and are for show only need maintenance. Hoses and belts deteriorate, fluids deteriorate etc. Certainly the value of the vehicle does not fall.
I doubt that there are but a handful of truly vintage, virgin, and unmolested televisions and radios anywhere. After all in the 50's and 60's and even into the late 80's there were thousands of tv / radio repair shops keeping these sets alive. It is understood that these sets REQUIRED maintenance, and if done properly the set should not loose value.
