Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
What the going rate for a jumbo 3. Serviced by Nick, standard ham mic, with handles. Low channels corrected
E band changed to uk. Needs rf gain control to be perfect, attenuator switch still works, just rotary not. Rf up full as normal. Just asking before i get flamed if i advertise it for too much.

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
Depends if it's going on ebay or on here. Ebay, maybe £250-ish, but others may say less... although if Nick's been inside it, it should make it more attractive and desirable to some in-the-know.
Maybe shove it on at £299 buy-it-now with a "make an offer" option if you're happy with that.
On here you'll likey get a bit less as per usual, but the chances of being messed about are very greatly reduced.
Good luck with it regardless

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
If in doubt, stick it on auction for a 99p starting price with the auction ending about 9pm on a Sunday night. It should find it's own value in bids then as most people will only pay what it's truly worth.
You could always stick a reserve on of say £199 just in case to cover yourself a bit.

£150 in my book, Although the crystal meths addicts on ebay will probably pay three times that on a good day

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
I sold one last year John, I put it on for £275 buy it now and it was snapped up within a few hours, in retrospect I probably could've asked more
Embrace your inner muppet !

With B.M. = £150.Bit unfair on the folk who take drug's,none of the stoners charge that much up here,oidar redart dnaleri is way overpriced
Plenty are talking worldwide on 27.555 usb,
Some are too far up their own @rse to admit it,
Many happen to know otherwise dx-ing test free,
Showing a complete lack of respect for the law.

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
You say it's missing the rf gain control ? If so take it your talking about the control knob or just the rotation off it ? If it's the actual knob itself personally would try track one down as it could put a lot off folk off buying as would imagine they are fairly hard to find nowadays ?
Good luck anyway the set I always wanted but could never afford, always remember gaizing at the Ham Int colour sales leaflet for it and thinking if only !!!!
Got any pics be nice to see one.

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
The rf gain Control is there, just the rotary part is faulty, didnt have a spare when it was being worked on by Nick. The pull out attenuation switch is still working. Pics i were going to add to this post were too big to add. I will put it on evilbay later today.
Kill em all and let god sort them out.

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
The carbon strip inside the control was broken/worn so rf gain wasnt working correctly, And because Jumbos etc use those extra long controls i didnt have one to replace it, The rf gain control on the Jumbo 3 is also a push pull ATT switch and that still functions.gmham wrote: ↑19 Aug 2018, 09:29 You say it's missing the rf gain control ?

Re: Ham jumbo 3/whats it worth
What at, £50?
It might pay to get a brighter picture of the front panel on your ad'. I've seen people put on deliberately fuzzy or dark ones to hide blemishes, scratches and hidden switch covers etc. A picture's worth a thousand words as the saying goes. You can usually add up to 12 for free
