Works?

[Jeffhs]

Was browsing on ebay this evening and found the following:

The item description says this Zenith armchair radio works. However, if you read a bit further, you will find the statement that the set works as far as the tubes lighting up, dial light works, etc., but the radio DOES NOT PICK UP EVEN LOCAL STATIONS! Why would the present owner of this even say it works, when it obviously does not? Just because the tubes light up in a radio or TV does not necessarily mean the set works, of course. I suggest that whomever bids on this set should e-mail the seller first, to ascertain the true condition of the radio. I would never (and have not, in over a year with them) bid on any radio, TV or anything else on ebay without knowing at least that much.
