Spotted this today, 463 vintage radios from one seller.
Makes your mouth water!
Wow–that is a serious collection! Each item contains few details, but the seller has a good rating and appears to ship worldwide from the Netherlands. There are a few good Sony and Panasonic models in that lot, too! Not everything is “rare” as the descriptions imply, but some are pretty unique and all seem to be in good condition.
Thanks for the tip, Max!
I think the seller calls them “RADIO COLLECTOR ITEM” to make them easy to spot/put them in common searches. As you noted, they are not all “rare”, but many, many, interesting items.
Looks like quite a few have sold, as there was 463 listed when I first looked
Have seen his eBay shop before. He sells radios at what they should be. All these radios are from various weekend flea markets and some are from estates.
Looks like the seller is down to 218 items at the moment.
Most likely the seller hardly knows what he is selling: Which collector would sell his or her collection this way – if ever? Only over his corpse! That might be what is happening.
