Hello. I would love to buy a very good condition HS-PX303 or PX-505 to add to my collection. These images below are some example of just how beautiful I find both these devices. Hope it's okay I use a photo from an old thread by the friends over at tapeheads AIWA HS-PX303 AIWA HS-PX505 I would in particular really like the 303 model. I've had a crush on the design ever since I first saw it. It is one of the most iconic and beautiful looking Walkmans I've ever seen, and after seeing hundreds it is one of the only designs I can always remember at the drop of a hat. The design reminds me of something carved out of bedrock stone. Sadly I've never found a mint condition one. As for the 505 model, I am also keen to buy one of these models. It too is absolutely beautiful and functional, even if it has quite the number of grooves compared to the 303. I'm located in the EU but international shipping from even outside EU isn't a concern, neither is import VAT. It is also not important if the device has been services as I would have it serviced from top-to-bottom myself, unless only that had been done very recently already. I'll continue to look for these models daily but if someone has one they are willing to part with, I can assure you that I'll pay well and cherish the device. If you have a case for the device or other components I will pay extra. Similarly, if anyone finds one in the wild or in an eBay listing and does not want it, and is kind enough to remember me, please do not hesitate to tell me! I would gladly buy you a beer! Thanks much for looking at my thread.
Small bump. Still looking for either of these. Also now looking for a Mint/near Mint HS-PC202 MkII or MkIII. Preferably made in Japan (visible on the back of the device).
contact ebay member https://www.ebay.ca/usr/musitonforu This member sold a lot of bran new HS-PC202. Most probably he has more available but not listed at this moment.
Thanks really much @Boodokhan I have contacted him. Let's hope that he responds. Though it looks from his feedback that he has probably sold his last one I doubt that he would have more than 180 of them. Fingers and toes crossed though.
I can't help you with the Aiwa, but I get sentimental when I see the BBE moniker. I still have the BBE 2002R "stereo processor" component I bought in the mid/late 80s.
Managed to get my hands on a PX505. Now looking for a case for it. Still interested in owning a mint PX303 also.
I have one, see my intro thread. I don't know worth though which I'm trying to establish as already had an offer
