RCA CT-100 on ebay

[ctc17]

I am the seller. I got this as part of an estate sale lot of sets. The set IS NOT from Torrance and has been stored for probably the past 50 years.

The emotions/internal conflicts involved with parting with this thing are heavy . The odds of winning the lottery are better than one of these in this condition ever falling into my hands again.

I read Phil Nelsons web page several times on his CT-100 restore. I came to the conclusion I just wont have the time to give this set the love it deserves for years. (not to mention the 40 other sets I have here)

My hope is I can find someone who can at least get that crt sealed up right away. I guess if it doesnt sell I will have to look into doing it myself. I know most collectors (myself included) would want to do all their own work.

I really dont think the crt has been touched. The dust is thick and even.

I would never attempt to use the forum to sell something but it would be ideal if a serious collector got it.

Here is a picture of the crt socket and whats in the folder. I think the chip occurred when I removed the socket, and I was super gentle.
