Just stumbled on some clones of JVC Kabooms.

All from the same seller. Shocked how much these are even selling for.

Yuk...as ugly as a kaboom but without the good sound...not good

don't bother.....these are utter rubbish....members have had them in the past and basically thrown them in the bin

Even more disturbing is to see that some people on the 'bay have actually bought them.

you could use one of them as a bin if you cut one of the ends off and stood it upright

 This one is the least expensive @ £94.90 and it has a cassette player

But would you really part with £94.90 for this heap just because it has a tape deck? A second hand JVC would more likely cost less, have better sound and be better put together, don't you think?

it's just Good to know that there is a clone out there when cometh the time that you cannot get replacement belts for your Kaboom and you still wish to play your cassette's with some Boom in this kind of packaging

Perhaps for £20 NIB if I was desperate, but not £94.90.
