Against your USD comp set, US$375 is above the 75th percentile versus a US$150 median and US$350 upper quartile, so this reads as ambitious rather than fair. It is only a small step over the top of the recent range, but it is still priced past where most comparable listings have been landing.
That said, this is a well-liked vintage Fisher tuner style piece: solid mid-century build, broad FM/AM/multi-band utility, and real appeal if you want period-correct rack presence as much as performance. If it is truly clean, working properly, and preferably original or recently serviced, the upside is in presentation and collectability—but at US$375, I would want strong proof of condition, alignment, and completeness before paying up.

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.
