It is the way it is.
You have to keep sets for a long time while keeping an eye on the prices if you are going to sell them if only for what you paid.
I have spotted a mono block amplifier that I have examples of selling for several hundred pounds.
They make such a nice HIFI that I will not part with them now they are restored. It took 30 years for them to gain any value.
With smaller sets I have recently saved a Bush just like the one you are selling as restored for free after being offered for a week or so on another forum. It came with a pile of shop clear out BER transistor portable sets.
As I am a bit more technical these will be enough of a challenge to keep me interested.
For the last week or so I have been tinkering with 1980s video cameras with built in lens motor circuits and these are a hard core challenge and I feel that the thread best be posted in a forum that has an active enough TV section that there will be any interest at all.
The art is in picking a challenge that fits your skills. If you go on collecting sets after you have worked out all the challenges they put before you there interest will begin to fade.
