today i picked up the local rag and skipped straight to the for sale section in anticipation of finding something nice.

i hardly ever buy the paper but thought id'e check it out as i was feeling optimistic.

anyway to cut things short i came acrosss the ad pictured below now what would you think upon seeing it?

sounded like i was about to score judging by the ad, anyway i called the seller and a lady answered. i asked her about the item and she said it was very tall by then my heart was pounding but she quickly revealed it was sharp seperates anyway i think i might start buying the rag on wednesdays now cos it could of easily been something else.

have any of you guys ever scored this way?

this is what it turned out to be, if i was into hi fi seperates then £40 sounds good for this nice looking bit of kithttp://www.radiomuseum.org/r/s...onenten_syste_2.html

Nice System Lav .

I m going to score a Philips D8443 in a few hours this way.

I m always buying the ads newspaper every Sunday.

I ve been in your position many times to say the least,

judging by the description i would have thought seperates

or a component system.

My first ever boombox(since starting collecting)

came this way a GF-777

from the news paper.

great stuff on the philips Deech, be sure to get back with info and pics, when you've had your play that is

can't believe you scored a 777 by paper ad that's gotta be a one in a million

I always read the ads but never come across anything that sounded promising...doesn't stop me looking tho
