OK, as promised, here is the second 5 week haul for your viewing pleasure:

some realy good boxes there, hope your overdraft aint to big

LOL - I have to go some to try and keep up with your rate of acquisition Geoff!

Having a month off now to lick my financial wounds, and to enjoy/fix/clean what I have..

UNREAL HAUL ! ! ! ! They're just about all GRAILS ! God I want a Dicolite and a 975 LOL and a Bombeat Killer finds congrats

Geezum crow! Amazing stuff there Ewen. The Toshiba and Lasonic are personal grails of mine... let alone the Disco Lite and C-100F, simply incredulous.



Rock On.

Ewen did you find all these beautiful specimens in the wild ? Any of them from eBay ? Just curious and now you have my undivided attention LOL TELL US MORE MORE MORE

Endo - 1 current S2G / 2 ex-S2G collector / 2 ebay / 2 wild.

Wild is hard for me as I work alot - so whilst ebay is epay, it suits my needs!

Just read that thread on Conion belt supply so that'll be two of us ordering belt packs on the same day - hope they got plenty!!

Glue - There does seem to be a few 975's changing hands so good luck with that. The remote Toshiba is crazy - none of my mates believe it's as old as it is! Be interested to know what other members have it.

OMG!!!

Holy crap man, OMG, WTF? How the He!!

That's awesome!

Ya, pretty nice Toshiba and Sharp 9696 - I don't know why - but somehow boxes in Europe seem to be in a better shape (cosmetically) than what we have here in the US - does anybody else think so??

Hi Ewen-What an incredible find!!
I love the Sharp 9696 and the Toshiba-all of them for that matter.
What a lucky haul!!
Super!!
Have a fantastic weekend working on those grails-Ghettoboom777.

I've made that observation as well. Could it be we have more warm weather so the boxes get out more or maybe we Americans just didn't care about taking care of these boxes? I even wondered if the boombox owners in America were just younger and more careless because of their age.

It also could be that boombox owners in Europe live in cities/towns - with no backyards, so their boomboxes stay inside most of the time. Me - I keep one of my boomboxes in the backyard all year long - and only clean it (a little bit) when it starts to look like a pile of dirt with antenna

Damn, Ewen, you came up BIG TIME!!!

Enjoy 'em all!

Wow Ewen,those are great. Nice going my friend!!
