"First, if you are into antique or vintage radio or electronics as an
investment or a retirement fund you’re an idiot. I often pay more for items
then I end up selling them for"

Bad luck for you.  I sell them for tens to hundreds of times more that what
I paid.  I sold thirty-32 radios at get-this-crap-outta-here swap-meet
prices, bought a new sports car.  Needed a new engine for the truck-
installed, didn't have time to do it myself, sold four telegraphy keys.

Look for better deals with a better return on your investment.  If I had my
wits about me I would have loaded trucks with all the mil stuff I passed on
and be pulling in hundreds of thousands instead of only occasional 
kilo-bucks having stuck mostly with hallicrafters.
