So, you’ve decided you
want to buy an old phone. Here are a few tips for you as you begin your
search!
-
First decide if you
want a desk or a wall phone and if it is going to be used or merely for
decoration.
-
Many phones have
adaptors already added for use in your home or office, so be sure to
check how the phone is wired for your application.
-
Inquire if the phone
actually works, the price should reflect the general internal and
external condition.
-
A phone that has been
painted is generally not as valuable as one that is in its original mint
condition.
-
Check how smooth the
rotary dial spins. Some dials require service if haven’t been turned in
decades.
-
Remember old phones
were built to last, and most can be restored to working condition that
would include: ringers, bells, cords, dials, incoming/ outgoing sound
quality and general cosmetic appearance.
OUR PHONES ARE IDEAL FOR EMERGENCY
PHONE CALLS, AS THEY WILL FUNCTION DURING POWER OUTAGES WHEN CONNECTED
TO A TRADITIONAL PHONE COMPANY CIRCUIT. DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE OF
RELYING ON A CELL PHONE OR CORDLESS PHONE FOR EMERGENCY CALLING, AS
THESE CAN GO DOWN AND ARE NOT 100% RELIABLE IN POWER OUTAGE SITUATIONS. |
