8989 - 99p

bison - 2011-07-13 08:19

hi folks won this on ebay just picked it up,thought it was going to be a mission collecting,but it only took me an hour round trip.

felt guilty just giving him a pound,the belts are ok and overall condition is ok.

i was gonna go all out on ebay this week aswell untill the exhaust fell off my car on monday.

8989

thats a mint deal man,i love my 8989,its beautifull to look at,and for its size its full of sound and bass..you should have bunged him a 10 spot,i always do if i win something very cheap,i won some seperates last week sold to me as spares or repair,but i needed them to fix mine,i won them for 99p + £7 postage,so i rounded it up to £20 to make it worth their while,i did'nt have to but its the kinda guy i am..i always do it...

yeah i definately felt bad not dropping him a note,i only had change,think he thought i was a dealer the way he quizzed me about ebay,i told him that id recently started collecting

Congrats bison if only we could see more bargins like this...every box we buy these days you tend to need a mortgage for.....nice one...well done...

Dude, I was watching this too. I'm in the Midlands so was real tempted, couldn't believe it only went for 99p! - you did good though man, very classic looking box the 8989. I have 2 of them already so probably best I didn't get involved . . . Nice one.

yo kennedy the ad said stoke but it was more like congleton so it was north of stoke which was helpfull,i was expecting a long drive,i prefer to pick em up.

sent the guy a postal order today...it was bad karma not to,felt like earl crossing one off his list.
