well pretty sure. its not perfect,
the tape deck motor whirrs but the belts gone i am sure of it.
the eject button is missing.
the handle is cracked but epoxied together.
hmm the radio and all the inputs work.
the soft touch controls are fairly shot.
i would prefer to sell it locally to a local member. i dont know if your interested james. it would need work to make it perfect. its pretty much all there tho and except for the soft touch control panel it looks pretty good.
i am in canada so shipping would be pretty expensive. i would for sure package this thing extremely good. so if someone is interested let me know.
also i wont sell it to anyone who is not a member and dosent have some good references. sorry you might be a nice guy but thats just how it is.i might also consider a trade.

it looks like i have a local buyer for this he is coming by today.

did you have luck with that local buyer Bill?

Whats the story on these? I see mention of them occasionally, but really dont know much about them?

billpc55 - 2008-11-16 22:54

hey man i did sell it to a local guy for 2 bills.
i was happy and he was pretty stoked to get it. its a pretty amazing little bit of portable music technology.
you would be shocked at how loud it was with that disco button pushed in. you wouldnt believe its sound when you look at those little speakers but man was it loud.
i am out of space i want to get some more things so i got rid of it. it wasnt getting loved and i didnt have the cash needed to make her right. i will miss it and i will look for another hoepfully in nicer shape. this one had few issues but it was still very very cool.
some people dont think of it as a boombox.
i for sure think of it as a boombox. a super rare boombox. i will find another one sometime.

yes really it is a fantastic sounding portable. even with those lil speakers it gets very very loud.
