    Thank you, I need to put it in order. Some are in drawers, others on the table where I am fixing them. Some in a small closet. Most are in boxes. I started last year, I've cataloged everything using Evernote but I definitely need to separate by brands and organize better.

    Welcome! Great equipment, how's the collecting over there? Do you find it locally or overseas?

    You got a beautiful collection of walkman units. :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:. I like the way you place them in the box with dividers.
    Thanks for sharing these pictures

    I'm living in Asia, acquisition happens at Flea markets and sometimes a friend travels to Japan.

    This box with two drawers was lying in a corner in the attic. It belong to my wife and I realized to be a good option. I hope it's still on the market. I will try to buy more. They are made of cardboard.

    Yes, but I believe this blog is dead, last post was in 2015. Maybe the collection doesn't exist anymore. There are some great collectors in Korea, but they are very rare.

    I could not believe it but I found 3 of the Olympus Micro L400 for sale on EBay They were all from the same seller but one had its box with the case remote and Insyructions but no headphones included nor micro- cassette Tape and the box has been sellotaped together However the best thing was the price £30 plus 4 P&P . The other two were cheaper Here is the one I
