Please help me identify this RCA console and is it worth $25

Hey everyone,
I'm posting this because i can't find anything about this RCA console online.
I have a picture of the model number but can't seem to find anything about it.
I know that the outside looks rough but i'm confident that i can restore it

Transistorized.

They'd have to pay me to take that one. A lot!

 

[EVBoy]

Junk.

I'd pass on that one also. If you're wanting a console you might want to post your approximate location and some of the people here may be able to help you find a nice one.

Junk, in terrible condition. Pass at any price unless they're paying you to take it.

 

[highping]

Grab it if you need to bury a monkee......

You will find most of the “wood” across the face of this thing is actually plastic. PASS.

Thanks everyone for your advice.
i have decided to not purchase it.
I'll keep my eyes open for good deals in my area.
I'm new to this and don't have a big budget.
I live in Manitoba Canada and can't find any good but cheap record players.
i'll read through a few posts on this forum to educate myself a bit more before making another purchase.

You've probably already tried Facebook and Craigslist but if you haven't, give those a shot. A search for "console stereo" might turn up something. Are you wanting tubes or solid state?

If you find something that you may be interested in, post it here and you'll get some feedback.

Yeah, Facebook is your best source for a console. And if you are visiting somewhere else, it is often worth your while to do a detour for something special. Be creative. I actually completed a trade in Winnipeg around 8 or 9 years ago. I brought a McIntosh MAC1900 receiver to Winnipeg, and I brought back a Bose Amp and Pre. A trade that took 8 months to complete. But we were both happy. That is what I mean about visiting places. I did the same when I picked up my dad's car from Vancouver and drove it back here to Ottawa. That time, I traded an MC Phono Cartridge I brought on the plane with me for a Sony PS-X55 turntable. I really like that series of Sony's.
