Today@the fleamarket

Today was the great fleamarket at "Eisenstadt" near Vienna.
I thought to myself: Only looking, nothing buying!
But can this be true? Big Grin

Ok,today there were extraordinary many boxes.
Hard to stay cool...
But i will nothing buy, really nothing. No No

Looking over 50meters to an dealer.
Whats that, this can be.... stay cool...ok,lets go. Leaving

Then i found this sad CONIC.
Dirty, antenna broken,....
After i short discussion with the dealer i had it on my neck - for 3 euros. Fair deal.
And so it looked after a short cleaning:

After cleaning the contacts it started working.
Left tape works, right not.
The sound is not great, resulting on the small speakers.

5minutes later i found the next interesting thing. An old cassette storage.
But he want to sell it only complete.
So i got for 5 euros many cassettes with....worse czechoslovakian an hungarian music too. Leaving
Ok, now i have a few testing cassettes. Razz


At the way back to the scooter i found the last thing for today. First i thought it´s an simple walkman. But it´s a littlebit more.
This MTC is a recorder, has equalizer and 2 speakers at the back. Including a clean cover.
And that it is:

At home a little shock.
The dealer bought it long time ago and used it nearly never. But he forgot the batteries in it. So they leaked. But after an short chemical attack everything is clean now. Wink

And this comes out when i won´t buy anything at the fleamarket: Laugh Out Loud

Nice Roman but you can't go to a flea market just to look, that's a losing game! Big Grin

Whenever I travel out of town I always...ALWAYS...stop at a thrifty or flea market. That's how the majority of my collection was built. eBay? BAH! (Not al the time though. Laugh Out Loud)

Great Finds! Nod Yes
