I have owned my Beomaster 900 RG for a few months and it is looking and sounding good.

Today is its birthday!! It was originally sold here in the UK on 11th December 1965 !!

Does anyone know what the original retail price of this unit would have been?

Thanks

Thank you to you both.

I looked on Beocentral too and the £186.00 is for the 900RG Compact. There is no reference to the De Luxe. I guess it would have been more expensive?

15,900 Austrian Schillings in 1965 would have been the equivalent of £220.00GBP. This is equivalent of £4026.00 today :)
