Hello,
I have a functional Royalaire Model 186, and was wondering what the value is? I will enclose some pics. Haven't seen one like it on ebay. Also didn't realize there were people who collected the prewar stuff.. Thanks!
Doesn't look quite as nice as yours, and some of the attachments are missing, but it runs pretty good. I got it on ebay 6 years ago for $9.99 plus $16.00 shipping. Have done some polishing but haven't given it a complete spa treatment yet. As for value, it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. You could try listing it on ebay with a starting bid of maybe $20-25.00 and see where it goes. Here's a pic of mine.
