Estate sale Pilot 3" set, what's it worth?

[decojoe67]

The ship-wheel knobs are being beautifully reproduced for $40 for the full set. It's all about the original CRT with these Pilot's. If it's a good one, the set will hold a good value despite it's cabinet condition. It's much, much easier to get another cabinet than another 3" CRT. Many collectors will accept a replacement green CRT, but it will lower the value. The cabinet on the set in question is strictly a parts set with it's broken grill bars. The carrying case was an option with these and not extremely desired. The bubble magnifier was an option too and can be worth nearly as much as the set itself, although IMPO it only clutters-up the front of the set. I had one once and it's a rather gawky add-on. I eventually just stored it away!
