    Sony walkman / tiny boombox WA-77 for $46
    Seller placed 3 walkmans for this auction. One of them is WA-77 ( use WM-1 for parts and the 3rd walkman GE is useless). I like this model a lot (have about 10) and still i might buy this one if nobody interested.

    SONY WA-77.jpg


    PROS:

    reasonable price.
    beautiful design (my personal opinion)
    Descent cosmetic condition


    CONS:
    doesn't work (most probably needs a new belt)
    radio controller dial is not sturdy on this model. Sometimes its loose and the string needs to be reinstalled again.

    mint D6C in the original box for EUR 675.50
    https://www.ebay.ca/itm/SONY-WM-D6C...896404?hash=item41e0977494:g:kBsAAOSwkRJa4KNv



    D6C.PNG

    PROS:
    comes with its original box and charger
    mint condition


    CONS:
    overpriced (but over the last few years walkman prices skyrocketed.)
    original microphone is not included ( it is not mentioned by seller)
    with a pricey walkman we all need to know about functionality of the unit. (seller didn't mention)

    I have a request from moderators or administrators to change the topic name from " best walkman deals" to "Best deals: walkman, boombox, ...."
    @walkman archive & @T-ster Please change the topic name that way i can place relevant deals on this topic rather that opening another topic. Thanks

    PROS:
    a collectible walkman in mint condition
    comes with its original box
    Buyer accepts best offer


    CONS:
    most probably it doesnt work .It is not clear whether or not this walkman works:
    "Der Riehmen muss gewechselt werden, Gerät läuft nicht an!"
    google translate as : The Riehmen must be changed, device does not start!" our German friends can translate this part

    Well, but the right place to put boombox deals is not here...
    However, we can open a new thread into the 2nd hand market subforum. Do you think that would be a better idea?

    Sony walkman equalizer SEQ-50 for only EUR 50

    [​IMG]


    PROS:
    excellent value



    CONS:
    doesn't ship to US
    seller didn't post a complete picture of the whole unit. So it is not clear whether or not there is significant damage to the corners/ sides

    excellent value:thumbup:

    Toshiba Walkman KT-CS1 a mini boombox with a detachable walkman. I bought several walkmans from this seller who is in Canary Island (Spain). The unit is brand new and seller accepts best offer.
    you will need a new belt and this is the appropriate belt for this unit:

    Changing belt requires some easy soldering.

    PROS:
    included all accessories and original packaging
    seller accepts best offer ( I posted this item due to this fact )



    CONS:
    overpriced (but seller accepts best offer)
    Walkman doesn't work and need a belt ( appropriate belt is square belt orbicular 9 inch)
    inside box (Styrofoam ) needs cleaning ( due to disintegrated headphone pads)

    I have that one from the same seller, bought 3 or 4 years ago i think. I got another black Toshiba from the same seller at the same time but not at home to check what it was. Will update later. They are very nice mint examples.
