picked this up today for a fiver off ebay,

i got one of these as an xmas present aged 13 in 1983..cheap i know £50 at the time,

ive compared it to a couple of other cheapies by bigger brands and this wipes the floor with em,

great memories of playing streetsounds electro albums on one thinking i was crazy legs

good going mate bagged a d8614 today for £26

Congrats to both!

It's always nice to see an owner and his first love re-united

Cheers gents

doh.. i know what it is i was watching it if it was on the bay

happy happy happy  

i hate to be the barer of bad news dell.....expect the deck to break in a few weeks...i had...2 gave em away.....lovley sounding box...but once the deck goes thats it.....

but i wouldnt worry...yours will last for years...i have all the bad luck

bison..there is nothing better than your first box....that's what it's all about....better than any 500 quid boombox....congrats to you both

nice one fellas..its got line in/out..speaker sockets and other ins and outs,

i know where i want to be with boxes but i couldnt resist this one,

free batteries included from the nineties haha

Hey bison...the battries are prolly worth more than your box haha

GET them on ebay

il say... ive bought some sh*te but this has sentimental value,

offloading my cheapies on ebay and passing on a couple decent ones to members like yourself,

i know where i want to be with them now

i meant the battries not the boombox....ya plonker

thanks bison...you have cheered me up this day and del
