I went to the viewing and the T5 was in very nice untouched condition. GBP27500 is a new price record for a TV y a large margin. I think the previous high price was about GBP18000 for a "one off" Baird set at the Bennett-levy auction.

Not surprisingly, Laurence won't give details of the origins of these sets but he strongly implies that these are attic/barn/cellar finds. Looks like 3 of the 4 sets are heading over the Atlantic. Any of you guys guilty of buying them? The little HMV904 with broken CRT went to a UK collector for about GBP3200.
