I would suggest you look for a large antique radio
conference that has a auction.
This is somewhere that people are looking for radios
to buy, and they typically charge less in the way of auction
fees that auction houses do.
The hardest part of it is getting your radios to the show
for the auction, but after that you're done, just wait
for the payoff.

We've had a number of large collections go through
our auction at the Charlotte Conference in March
each year, it's a great way to sell radios,
and no ****pping.
