Depends on who is buying it, and what they want it for.
If its being bought by a collector who will just put it on the
shelf (not me!), then don't re-cap. If its being bought to be
used, re-capping is the only way to go.

As you may know, there's an SX-88 on Ebay. The pictures show it still
has the original paper capacitors like the 'Tiny Chiefs' and 'Black
Beauties', which are known to become leaky. Should a valuable radio like
the '88' be run with these caps' and possibly damage an irreplacable
componant, such as an I.F. transformer? Would it lessen the value if it
was recapped?
