Look on eBay to get an idea whart they are selling for and how they
are described.


Anywhere from $5 - $50, depending on the condition. These were not rare at
any time, and still aren't.

I agree. I got my S-38E for $5.00 at a church rummage sale in
non-functional condition. Absolutely cherry and working properly it
might be worth $50 to a collector. Mine took one resistor from the junk
box and a good cleaning to make into a very classy kitchen table radio.
The RF performance is dismal by modern standards, but it evokes powerful
memories of listening to the 2Mhz marine band in the propeller shop of
the boatyard at the end of our road when I was quite little.
