Solved Vintage Futaba Tx

I have managed to get my hands on a Futaba Ripmax M6 transmitter for free which I believe to have been manufactured and bought in the 1970s. I don't have a clue and I can't find how much it would be worth to sell because it isn't something I would probably use because nothing of my collection is futaba. If someone could give me an idea of it's value it would be much appreciated.
If I get a value, it will likely end up on ebay. I will add a link to the listing on the thread once up for sale.

I doubt it is worth much. I've got several about the same vintage.
Beware it would not be legal to this Tx, unless it has been narrow banded. If it has it will have a gold "narrow banded" sticker on the back.

If you can even find someon to buy it there are a few people that kind of collect old radios and this Futaba was pretty common I even had one. It went into the garbage.

$20 US max. I have it's brother I still use, but only with dry cells. The sticks have gone cruddy, the pots are noisy but it has the Crystal door and is still a watt and a half.
