If any member attended the auction in Sydney today,(Davidsons), I would be interested in the prices paid for the 5 radios listed.
I wasn't able to attend, but there were a couple of interesting collectables there.

Thanks for the prices, Jandab.
They seem reasonable, given the condition of the bakelites.
