Re: [Phono-L] orlando show
Having only been to the Orlando Show once before I thought the new location much better, Bob Richard crew did a great job the new indoor parking lot was outstanding ! When the doors opened to early buyers there was a good number of people who not only looked but bought, I sold not only to long time collectors but to a few New buyers as well. I can't speak for the other dealers but I had a very good show look forward to next year.

I can't imagine that many of them produced or sold.

I got it up at the Brimfield , Ma. flea market and thought it was quite a find. Had it for a little while before I sold it. Never did find out what or who made it.

Re: [Phono-L] Another bargain on fleabay
Every now then someone will carry one of these things into a Phonograph Show to try sell to one of the Vendors, only to have their Dream shattered when they find out the extent they or someone in the family had been taken ! Sad that it happens but seen all to often Ebay other auction outlets make it real easy ___ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
Re: [Phono-L] Vehicle?
I agree recently sold my 07 Camry Hybrid, just in time with the problems Toyota is having. Now have a Chevy HHR that gets about 5 miles to the gallon less than the hybrid ! Also a good part of the trunk in the hybrid was taken up by the batteries, My HHR can carry a whole lot more including at least one large Victrola. The downside Chevy makes the HHR in Mexico.

Hybrids are not yet what they are cracked up to be. I had an 2006 Lexus Rx400h its actual mileage, both in town on the road, was consistently 6 - 8 miles below its rated mileage. I don't think hybrid technology is yet perfected. One should wait for the next generation hybrids with more efficient batteries, etc. Jim Cartwright Immortal Performances, Inc. jim...@earthlink.net [Original Message] From: Ron L'Herault lhera...@bu.edu To: Antique Phonograph List phono-l@oldcrank.org Date: 07-Mar-2010 10:37:07 PM Subject: Re: [Phono-L] Vehicle? nice, but more expensive than I can handle and it does not get great mileage. I'm not happy when I only get 28 to the gallon instead of 30. I wish I could afford a hybrid.

I am on the verge of getting a new vehicle thought I'd ask the advice of Phono-L members since, like myself, you all have need to haul antique phonographs. I'd like to have cargo capacity to transport the typical Victrola (XVI), the typical Edison Diamond Disc Phonograph (C-250) as well the Orthophonic Credenza - when I need to haul an Orthophonic changer or a Capehart, I'll continue to use my 1969 GMC pickup. I want a smaller, more economical 4 cylinder vehicle have looked at Hondas (all of which have too small a cargo area except the Element which I consider unattractive) Toyotas (Scion, Metric, RAV 4 Venza,all of which will accommodate the above mentioned machines) am leaning towards the RAV4 but thought it might be nice to get your input before making a final decision.
