Looking for a working/nice shape Aiwa P07/F07 or a similar 80's model

Hello,

I'm looking for a working Aiwa P07 or F07 (like the one from Back To The Future)
Sure I wouldn't mind getting the proper Aiwa P02 MkII, but they're a bit expensive.

Sure Ebay lists them sometimes (P07 or F07),
but most of the time they also end high.
Also it seems hard to find an Aiwa that's problem free and works 100%

As I'm not capable of fixing walkmans,
I would very much like to buy a working walkman.

Also the sellers mostly say they think the belt must be replaced, but that is just their thought.
I imagine that there are tons of other possible problems that it might have.
So for example when you have to pay 295 € for an Aiwa F07 that's not working,
I find it alot of money. Even if the owner thinks it's just the belt that need replacing.

If it's just for my BTTF Display, I wouldn't mind it not working,
but I want to play a few cassettes again, so I must have a working walkman.

So above all I would buy I walkman that's 100% working and is in superb cosmetic shape.

If it's too difficult to get an P07 or F07 in working condition,
I'll settle for a similar Aiwa 80's model.

Maybe someone in here can point me in the right direction
or maybe someone in here has something to sell ?

Thanks in advance,
Soxbrother

 

Here are two Aiwas from the eighties in exellent condition.

These 2 are excellent item to buy
Hey Soxbrother try one of these high quality walkmans
The actual value of this model is much higher than the current price but i hope you get one of these.
@jonas are these belong to you??? and will you ship to US?

 

Thanks for the info.
They were already in my watchlist on Ebay

They look very nice indeed.

 

@Boodokhan Yes these two walkman belong to me.
I occasionally sell walkman (or tape related stuff) on ebay,
but only linited to european shipping.
I don`t know much about shipping costs and costom fees to oversea
(or asian) destinations and on the other hand I do not offer PayPal,
so it would be very expensive for US or asian customers to send money
by normal bank transfer.
I don`t offer PayPal option because of the buyers insurance. If you had
bad luck and get on a bad guy, he can claim a damage or the missing of
the item and will get his money back from PayPal - so you lose both, the
money and the item.

But if you are really interested in that model - pm me and I think we will
find a way.

 

I'm the same Soxbrother who sent you a message on ebay a few hours ago

I'm thinking about bidding on one of them.

 

Prices are high now. Probably going over 200 € by tomorrow evening.
Same buyer has highest bid on the both of them.

 

Since i recommended soxbrother to buy your walkmans will not enter the competition at this time. I appreciate your offer. I want our new member to get one of your beautiful walkmans.
I will buy some of your walkmans later, PM me the list and then we can talk
Thanks

 

That's very nice that you are willing to do that, but everyone deserves a chance on buying them, so you as well. I will offcourse try to buy it, but it's not certain I will win it. It's up to you. Like I said, I hope I will win it but that's not certain at all. So if you don't try and I don't win it, then we both have nothing. Anyway thanks for thinking of me.

@jonas
If I don't win one of the HS-J09's, do you maybe have other Aiwa beauties you're selling as well ?

 

There goes my walkman, pffffff

 

...and the search continues for a vintage 80's Aiwa...

 

Do you guys think this one is an easy fix ?

Seems like whenever I find a good candidate, there's always something wrong with it

No Stereo2go member who sells a vintage 80's Aiwa ?

 

Another broken Aiwa HS-G09 sold for 134 €, pffff

 

Anyone has experience buying from
https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp
https://www.taobao.com

Seems like all the 80's Aiwa's are being sold over there.

 

As you're from belgium, try some online "flea market" like 'Leboncoin" in France.. ebay is overlooked and overpopulated !
You still could find on local sites from people who don't know what they sell some walkman for a ridiculous price !
Ex : I found last week an Aiwa P06 for 15€... my best walkman, a G09 (like new) for 20€, etc... but you have to be quick as there's no auction

 

Thanks for the info.
I'm hoping to find a working Aiwa.

 

I've also been on www.2dehands.be and www.marktplaats.nl, but very few walkmans on there.

 

Soxbrother, check this one : https://www.leboncoin.fr/image_son/1305819001.htm?ca=12_s

 

Thanks for the link, I've already seen that one. Some functions don't work and the headphone connection isn't 100%

Maybe it's fixable ?
But how much is it going to cost ?
