If this is the FM-100-B generation, £40 is a bargain rather than merely fair: even allowing for age and the fact that used valve tuner prices are all over the place, this is well below what a sought-after Fisher tube tuner with real collector appeal usually commands. The timing matters here because it’s an early hi-fi era piece, not a modern replaceable tuner, so condition and originality drive value more than raw functionality.
What makes it worth a look is the Fisher sound and the build: these are admired for their warm, classic FM presentation and handsome industrial design, and the model has enough reputation to reward a careful restore. At this price, I’d be most interested in whether it powers up, whether the dial lamps and output stage are intact, and whether any original knobs, case, or paperwork are included; if it’s complete and unmolested, this is the sort of listing that can be a very good buy.

Fisher is an American hi-fi name founded in 1945 in New York by Avery Fisher. In the vacuum-tube and early stereo era, The Fisher Radio Corporation built a strong reputation for carefully engineered, high-quality home audio gear and helped define what “hi-fi” meant to serious listeners in the 1950s and 1960s.
Historically, Fisher’s core products were amplifiers, receivers, tuners, and other home audio electronics rather than modern lifestyle categories like headphones, DACs, or cables. The brand was especially associated with tube amplifiers and stereo receivers, along with related components that brought higher-fidelity sound into mainstream living rooms.
Today, Fisher is best understood as a vintage-collector and heritage hi-fi brand rather than a current high-end market leader. Its classic equipment is respected among enthusiasts for its sound quality, build, and historical importance, while the brand itself has long since moved away from its original position as a premium American audio manufacturer.
