What's a Sixer Worth?
 

What's a fair price for a Heathkit Sixer these days? I'm the original
owner/assembler...got it for Xmas in 1965. It's completely original...no
mods....has all tubes and worked the last time I used it...front panel
unblemished. Includes a crystal and copy of the manual. Unfortunately, I
don't have the original mic or license holder cover. I also have the
mobile power supply. I plan to take it to a hamfest tomorrow and am
wondering how to price it.

Collector value only, and that means whatever the traffic will bear.

Personally, I'd keep it for sentimental reasons, but if you want top
dollar for it, put it on eBay and emphasize the pristine condition.
There are some serious Heathkit collectors there.

I would put it on EBAY or have one of
the eBay sellers put it on eBay. It will
probably find a better home.

Put it on Ebay. You'll be lucky to get offers of 50% of current Ebay prices
at a hamfest and won't have to put up with the arrogant hamfest price
police...
