Hi everyone, I'm in the process of putting a few thoughts together to help people identify their radios... as I quite often field emails from people asking about theirs (typically with a footnote, "by the way I'm thinking of selling it - what do you think its worth?'). I would say 3/4 of the people I reply to never even bother to reply with a thankyou which is starting to get pretty annoying since I generally try to put as much detail into replies as I can (I've tried not to, but I end up doing it anyway). So I though if the site could answer some of those questions before I get an email then that would make me less grumpy - everyone wins!
I thought I could get it into a couple of paragraphs - but it very quickly got out of control! Its not published yet, just a hidden link - so you get front row seats.

I'd appreciate any feedback on what is there so far - its a little disjointed and there are gaps, and also a few clues on how to use the site to find a radio. I'm sure I've missed things, and over-explained others.
I also want to add some kind of valuation ideas to the site but I have absolutely no idea how to even begin with that - I was thinking a $, $$, $$$ type of scale - but then I could actually end up affecting the values of radios and I don't want to do that either... so maybe just some tips on how to get the best price from an online auction (good description, link to the site with information, and DECENT PHOTOS (how hard can that be given modern technology?! Most trade me photos are garbage, particularly sets people want hundreds for)
Cheers in advance
