Side effects, of a brain hemmorhage.

litfan - 2012-08-13 09:55

Well people. Can`t believe i`m saying this. It was me, that got the bombeat 40 on ebay.de. Let me say, here and now, there is NO WAY, i would have paid anywhere near this much for a radio, before the brain injury. The silver one i had, and deeply regret letting go of, was £26. I can`t believe these things go for such silly money, as, there is nothing to them, just the look. The cassette deck, even has a puny square belt, not flat. One thing it must have, is a damn good amp stage, mixed with good quality 8" woofers. Right, you can start with your comments now. I wonder what paul (gettoman), will have to say about it. Oh, the shame.

hey rich --its cool..

 

none of us know the 'real' correct price or value of any old radio..

but its comforting for you to know that you are likely to

get all of your investment back -

in case you decide to re-sell it -

so -thats good

That`s true ira, though, it doesn`t really bother me. What gets me most. I have said it countless times, is, letting mine go. How many champagne colour bombeat 40`s have you seen? The guy, who worked for toshiba, that i spoke to, knew nothing about the bombeat 40. He could remember the rt-s931/2 well.

Rich , think of it like this....you having a 40 will make everyone who hasnt got one a jealous as fu@k.............including me..lol

Congrats rich...i wouldn't worry about it son...like ira says you will easy get your money back when time to let go....also imho the black one looks much nicer than the silver one,,,,,yess i love silver big time but to me the 40 in silver just looks strange....congrats you jammy barsteward....

 

hows this for mental rich...i have been offered 4 conions for my crown 970 and turned everybody down.....the 970 is a simple box like the bombeat but i wouldn't trade it for an m90..pollox to the conions lad..been there done that

The chrome has seen better days but it's still a fantastic looker.

 

I don't know how much you let yours go for Lit (& I'll wager you don't want to be reminded), but congrats on being reunited with a classic boomer  

 

It's on my wish list, but I haven't got a hope if they're going for over £1100...
