Philips 503 currently up for auction
At the time of writing, we have one of these record players up for auction in our Catawiki store. The auction ends 4/27/2016.
The model for sale is the 22GF503/28B (or E?) specifically, in orange and black colors. It has Philips branding on the outside, but a Radiola type plate on the inside? The player is in almost new condition, apart from a small crack in the speaker cover.
It’s functional, but it’s also a very nice decorational item because of the recognisable 70’s orange styling.
The item can be shipped worldwide. Shipping cost will automatically be calculated by Catawiki.
