I just won this awesome Hitachi TRK-6700H from Ebay last week. My Ebay win. I received it yesterday and repaired the cassette. What and awesome little unit and it is LOUD!!!!!
I even got the original owners manual and ac adapter. I feel I got a great deal. Cool
The seller even double boxed it and used lots of bubble wrap. Big Grin Big Grin

Yep, spent more and got shoddy packaging and no power pack. The only thing I got that remotely looked like a manual was a warning from the post offce about never shipping anything from Ira again. And it sounds like s**t. Ira's a bastard. Laugh Out Loud Laugh Out Loud Laugh Out Loud


Actually, it worked like a dream right out the bag! Laugh Out Loud

Well, that is the fun side of collecting. You can catch that ray of sunshine sometimes. I've done it myself more often than not so it all works out in the end IMHO. Big Grin


And by the way Skip...CONGRATULATIONS! Big Grin

Say what you will about "The James", but outta all of his weird-ass posts, he did bring us some gems when he posted his old Japan boombox pics. Nod Yes


There's your box right there, skippy... or at least the Japanese version of your box. Cool

oldskool69 - 2009-01-05 19:04

Me too! I kinda wonder what it cost in Japan when I got mine! Thanks Mono! Big Grin
