Parting with my collection

cereallad - 2011-03-23 19:21

Hey, all.

Used to be a member of this community in the early to mid 2000s. I moved on, but kept my collection with me. Moving every year and lugging around these suitcases has worn on me. Also, I'm trying to scrounge together some dough for grad school, and I can't think of a better audience to get a feel for the market.

So, I present to you my collection of battle-damaged warships from a funkier era.

Conion: Power switch shorted on a few years back, missing tape tray, and one of the antenna caps. Has tape door and alarm was working the last time I plugged it in (years ago).

Sony CFS-77S: Slightly dented speaker grill (I feel like it could be popped out from the inside). Volume gets loud at low setting. Tape player played a bit slow, likely needs refurbishing.

Lasonic TRC-931: Bought off ebay years back. Sold broken. Doesn't power on. Missing a three buttons and one antenna. Original model, not rounded-edge remake.

Kingston PS-420: Probably the most solid of the bunch. I think one of the speakers had static the last time I tried to pump it up. Built-in latches for shoulder strap, no strap included. I've seen identical models under different brands.

Check the pictures below.

That's it. Let me know what you guys want to offer or even what's a reasonable price for a reserve if I decided to go the ebay route. I live in Chicago. If someone was local, I'd be happy to work out a deal on the entire collection.

Yo!
I also PMd you about the entire collection. I would hate for these to be sold and shipped off and possibly damaged. I am local enough to come get them all. Thanks!
