Finally WM-7 with original headphones MDR-W5's

Been looking for a pair of MDR-W5's to go with my black 7 for a long time, there's been a few with 7's, but Ebay being Ebay the price has always gone to high.Saw a silver 7 with original headphones just listed, made the seller a really low offer and to my surprise it was accepted, the auction became a BIN I bought it.
I couldn,t wait for this to arrive, but when it did I was amazed the silver 7 is almost mint just a few hardly visible tiny scratches it's almost as good as my black one, and the headphones of course are very very nice super clean condition, they had orange foams but swapped them for some black ones from my MDR 30's.All the silver 7 needed was new belt now works perfectly, although someone had been inside because there was no belt at all, and 4 screws missing luckily they didn't go any further I've replaced the 2 common size screws
but one of the circuit board screws with the threaded holes is missing which means the screw for the cover cannot go in.
I feel sort of guilty for the small amount I paid but the seller didn't have to accept my offer.
Anyway here's the pictures:

















Here's my Black 7 on it's own and with the Silver.










If anyone's interested in what I paid I'm not posting it here, just search completed listings
and you'll find it.

Corry, although I was only looking for the headphones to get such a nice silver 7 as well for price I paid was fantastic, so I'm afraid it will never be for sale, sorry.

Don't know about anyone else but I like to use all my "Walkman", they don't just sit in my display cabinets.Here's my to WM-7's in my office at work I listened to them at lunchtime and whenever I was stuck infront of my PC.
