I don't care for manipulation either, but there is still the possibility of getting it for a fair price. This one is a closet gem and I'm motivated, but I do need to know a street value.

I'll give her a scrub up when she arrives, but here's some before pics. Basically life was spent in a closet until it was passed down to Jr... I'll replace the missing slider knobs. The face is as clean as the transformer. The grill looks like it caught a splash of something... EV 200 with original quad of 420's 9th Simul-Satellite made???
