what is it about folks,eh guys?i placed a wanted advert in all the local press in west yorkshire over christmas and into the new year,to sell me (or even give me) Laugh Out Loud old portable radio cassette recorders-how many replies have i had? nothing.sweet fa.has anyone done this before and had any results?because this doesnt work for me on the internet either-no replies!whats peoples problem?are you seriously telling me that no one has any left out there, besides us?or is it that pig of a site called ebay,combined with greedy people thinking they can get what they want?
does anyone remember what this scene was like prior to ebay?were these things more readily available?
oh, i did score yesterday-not a new girlfriend but a philips roller 2 £4 a big hitachi trk3d50 £10 and a small hitachi with digital display a fiver.1 off barnsley market and 2 out of my charity shop.
but i still cant find the elusive earlier 1 piece stuff,and in that category my trk 8290 and gf525 and gf9090 are looking decisively alone.
