""""So, I'd rather avoid the shipping and auction fees."""" ....................
You can afford to avoid the cost of the auction, because sometimes you can buy an American radio on the next street.  I dream of a time when I can also buy American radio in Ukraine, well, at least in a neighboring city.  And so far can not avoid the cost of the auction and the cost of delivery.

Joke about Russian Mail Service:
The Federal Mail Service has sent their mailmen to work remotely.
From now on, they will open your mail and will read it to you, should there be something important.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Hello RadioSvit,
I am sorry to hear about the problems you are having because I have bought parts from Ukraine.
It took a while but my parts came and arrived un damaged .
Hope you can find your self some more radios.

If you have such an opportunity, I will be very grateful to you.
PS.
By the way, I think it's time to put many of our radio stations on the Philco forum for sale or exchange. On the weekend I will offer a list of radios, maybe someone will be interested.
As well as spare parts for Soviet radio

Well now you've opened a bag of worms. What does a box of spare Soviet radio parts consist of?

I think you can find a lot in that box. I disassembled for spare parts about 50 radios.
So there are many speakers, transformers, volume and tone controls, scales, vernier calipers, circuits, radio lamps, decor elements and more.
