This, 7/8 years ago, was an untapped gold mine for boxes. Since it has been discovered, it has been worked dry. You`ve got no chance of getting an m70, m90, s90, etc. At one time, you could pick any of these up, for under Y200. Now, it`s over Y10,000. I thought , i had won a victor rc-x999, with a Y18,000 bid. Looked in my e-mail inbox, i had been outbid. Crazy.

there was one on ebay a few weeks ago for £100 i should have let you know just my brain is fried lad.....it is that little 1 piece black thing were talking about....isn't it?

No lad. It`s this, beautiful machine. A personal favourite of mr france 2013, agentorange.

ahh i see that's deffo not the one i was thinking about lad.....as for japan i don't even bother looking there now for obvious reasons....tell ya this tho lad bet you can't find an fd80 on there....looked for years

Nah, you`re right. I`ve seen an fd70. Look`s similar. These victor eggs. You couldn`t give em away at one time, now, people are all over em. Same with the tosh s90, there used to be loads on. I could go on.

fd 70 is that a 3 piece....if so i have one....theirs a s90 on the bay now lad

shit it's gone

Nah. It looks like your fd80. Yeah, i saw that s90. Looked minty. Another one, that  used to be all over yahoo, was the sony cs-f40, that i`ve got. There were loads. Now, there`s none. I`d love to know, how that "end aucttion early" works?

You are not kidding Rich,

I have been watching it with interest for years and within the last 12 months it has gone mad. There are still good items on there but sooo much more expensive and what with the risks involved; no longer worth trying.

Hey lit would you happen to have a pic of the fd70 lad??? never seen one before mate

Sorry, for the late reply old lad. No, i don`t have a pic, but, i remember, it looked EXACTLY like yours. Auction, was about a month ago.

no worries lad....wouldn't mind a gander on japan, just for the sake of it but im not sure how one gets on there these days
