On my way to Goodwill yesterday,I saw someone selling stuff out of a storage unit.They had pulled a lot of junk out and placed it on large beach towels out in the sun.Due to the sheer amount of items,I decided to take a look.This little Sears 2103 mini caught my attention.It was very dirty but looked as if it would clean up nicely.Fortunately I was right.However,I had to wonder how long it had been in direct sunlight.After buying it and taking it home,to my relief I also found it to be fully functional.It has metal sliders and switches and a very satisfying build quality.Sound is decent for its tiny size.Note the stereo mic inputs.This one isn't in my older 2.0 database.

great pick-up --
thats about as clean as a box design ever be-

and takes AAs -

Not too bad for a Sears mini!

Thanks guys!It's strange how the lens of my cheap camera makes the handle look bent.It looks like I missed a few spots cleaning also.Hmmm...I thought walkgirl would also be interested in seeing my new Sears mini boombox also

That looks really nice,especially for a Sears. Very clean and high end looking..

I do like that minibooombox very very much Jovie! , in fact I love it!

I just did not see this topic yet

I think you now have alot of nice miniboomboxes Jovie????

Oh yes, the pictures are great, and I do want to know
what camera you use!, my pictures do not come
out that clear

Walkgirl,
The camera I usually carry with me is not that expensive.It is a Vivitar Vivicam 5355 which I got from my employer as a 10th anniversary gift.It might have cost $50.00 new.Its so cheap in fact it doesn't even have an anti-shake feature.Most of the time I try to not use a flash.The flash on really small cameras usually is not that good if you don't want bright spots or reflected light in the picture.I make sure to have just enough light for the auto-focus to work.Knowing the camera will select a slow shutter speed,I will prop it up on a stack of books or anything I can find close by that will be sturdy.Though I have to make sure not to move the camera while pressing the shutter button,the pictures will come out very clear and much better using only natural light than they will with a flash.Although I use the flash at times,it is usually a last resort for me.
