Holy Battleships, Batman!! The radio even comes with a Captain Nemo style motorized tuner.

Wrong side of North America for me, so I won't be tempted to break my "no more TVs in 2011" vow.

You do need it. If I lived as close as you do, I'd be making an appointment to inspect it in person.

Sometimes those meetings get a little hectic. Maybe a few thousand dollars falls out of your jeans. Maybe the owner spies money on the floor and picks it up, saying, "I wonder where that came from?" Maybe when you get home, you notice that there is an old TV in the back of your truck. "Now, how the heck did that get in there?" It can all be terribly confusing.

I would never encourage a seller to violate eBay rules, of course, but I have heard of Bad People who try such tricks.

High, but probably not as high as the last TRK-9 on ebay a few years ago.
You can never tell with these things, depends on who's in the market when one comes up for sale.

It looks very similar to the Westinghouse WRT-702 with only a few minor differences in a bezel and cabinet.

I wonder if the chassis are the same?

The Westinghouse and Silvertone sets were RCA electronics in different style cabinets.
