What is an eight button Western Electric candlestick Interphone worth?

Is this what your asking about?
Oh! And to stop any confusion, I borrowed this photo from Gary's website.

Yep, That would be it. I ran across one today and thought it was interesting. I had never seen one before. I am just  on what the pricing on one should be.  (rough estimate)

They also had a Dictaphone model 10, That was pretty cool to look at also.

I saw one for sale at the SoCal phone show a few days ago.  Don't remember the price. Gary Goff was the seller,  don't know if it is still for sale.

I haven't seen one sell for quite a while.  When watching them a few years ago, they seemed to go in the $100 - 300 range, depending on condition -- certainly more than a 20-style desk stand.  The condition of the paper strip on the base and its cover is critical to value.  It's anyone's guess what the economy has done to the prices.

If that was the same phone that Gary had at a show a couple of years ago, it was in real good condition and I think he was asking $200 for it. I remember it because I have a 4 button made by Couch that is not in as good of shape & I paid $40 for it a few years back.
