I suspect the motor doesn't exist, thus I'd never get it.  He keeps avoiding my request for a picture to validate whether it is a correct one.  It seems there are scammers scouring the various boards on the net including phonograph forums.  I prefer to keep to those I am familar with.   Ron

My bad.  Haven't identified a correct motor yet, but talking to some including George.  He's a great resource and is looking for me.  The issue I found with this motor is that although it appears to be a typical Victrola double spring motor, it is not the standard motor made for most

There are several subtle hints this one may not be what it appears to be.  The speed control is one, the reproducer another.the 14X14 footprint is correct, however. H.   Ron --- On Thu, 12/23/10, Ken and Brenda Brekke kb...@charter.net wrote: From: Ken and Brenda Brekke

Hi all!  I'll be be honest and say I have dealt with this individual in the past.  I guess I'll provide a contrarian view to those experiences posted thus far.  I purchased an Edison machine from him and it was packed relatively well.  It could have been better, but all was safe.  The machine

I agree with Steve.  It depends on condition and the machine itself. It can be subjective and dependent on the collector or individual as well.  Do you want a common but pristine original Vic -IV, for example, or would you rather have a refurbished and refinished Edison Opera brought back to
