Any "vintage" Marantz fans here?

I have a 2270 stereo receiver that I'd like to sell. This is about a 1973 model, rated 70W/C. I accquired it in a trade, about six years ago, from someone I worked with. I don't know about its history before that, but the person I got it from was very possibly the original owner. It's not mint cond, but I would call it "good"--- I've done nothing to it since I've had it, and actually I haven't used it much either. I took the top off and dusted it out with canned air. The only thing I know of that doesn't work is the "FM" light. All the other dial lights work, and they don't appear to have been replaced. The tuning is not as smooth as it should be, either.

I have the wooden case for it, but it's in bad shape. The receiver was taken out of it long ago, and the case was not stored very well. The veneer is peeling off--- It probably could be salvaged, but it would take some work.

I don't have a manual or anything, but click here for a spec page. I've been amazed to see these things sell on E-bay for nearly $400. I'd rather sell to a Polk-forum member. $150 buys it, or make me an offer if you think that's too much. I have more, hi-res pictures if you're interested. e-mail me at jmec@cswnet.com.
