If somebody is just buying it to put on a shelf and look at, fine. But if you're going to use it with dried up old caps, then yes, it's a time bomb waiting to go off. How it sounds is irrelevant, although most know stuff that's 40/50+ years old is going to drift out of spec, and not sound as it was intended by it's builders. But if you like that fine. However, these things can't just run forever. At some point if it's going to be put into regular use then yes it needs some basic work done on it.
Paying restored prices for unrestored pieces makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
