@@SemEilers For a brand new instrument or a restoration, £10,000 -£15,000 per rank at a rough estimate. But in all honesty, they just don't sell for that much sadly. More likely to sell at £10,000-£20,000 for the whole thing. Besides buying them, they need somewhere to go.

The theatre has new owners and the organ is included in future plans for theatre operation and preservation.
Did I see a 'solo 'cello' unit in first chamber, just by the window? If so, a rarity indeed!

I’m only from the US but I wish that you’d be willing to ship to US if anyone buys and organ and stuff
We can organize the dismantling, packing, crating and shipping to the US.
