The replacement parts that have been added to that pump do not hurt the value as they are mostly cosmetic and not really major. The globe is a reproduction that at is just a $120 item so doesn’t add to the value either. New faceplates are an item commonly needed in a restoration. All that being said the pump looks pretty complete and straight and aside from the few decals and the globe looks original and never tampered with. In my opinion it’s priced about three thousand too high. Original patina seems to be what a lot of people want but you can probably find a really nice restored 36B for the same or less if you look around. They are very desirable pumps and everything is getting higher these days but seven grand will buy you a pretty nice pump. If I was wanting one to display in my home I’d want something shiny and bright but that’s just my taste and not the same for all. Hope this helps. This is my pure 36B I restored.
