    I was tempted to title this "Oh no - What have I done"

    I commented before that the only Boombox I would like to add to my collection was a Sharp VZ2500

    There is a good reason I didn't put this one in the "Cool Stuff for sale" thread. When the seller relisted it with the postage reduced from £40 to £20 I clicked "Buy it Now".

    I have just collected it and it arrived nicely packed in the condition shown in the photos.

    After a layer of bubble wrap the seller had taped cardboard egg boxes to every flat surface.

    It definitely needs restoration. However, from what the seller was saying they had had it from "almost new" so hopefully it hasn't been messed around with.

    Yea, I wouldn't have posted it down below either, that's a major score, hopefully you can get it working properly, they love to be played with.
