I am at a Loss here... the 71 has a speed control on the front and this one does not!

cali9dub - 2008-04-14 17:16

I think that guy is on drugs....looks like a regular old M70 to me...

redbenjoe - 2008-04-14 17:22

BB - there are several indications --that this --in its present configuration --is a grey M70--

however -- if we can locate a pint of gold paint and those 'easy-to-find' M71 nameplates ........

Well it's obvious this doofus doen't even pay attention to the photos he posts in his listings. I mean, "Rare M71..", then post photo of data plate that says...wait for it..."M70..."!!! Roll Eyes

jameswp67 - 2008-04-14 17:37

He has changed his auction I assume...BTW, the M71 does not have tape speed control...

71spud - 2008-04-14 17:39

Either you guys can't read or he changed his description....

Well 'Spud, in Bama if we can read at least third grade level we're eligible to become Governor! Laugh Out Loud

BACK TO TOPIC:

Yep, looks like he corrected it. Wonder if it will hurt the bidding.

transamguy1977 - 2008-04-14 18:01

I wonder if it comes with a complete pair of those old school converse sneakers???
That would make it worth the 350. buy it now. Laugh Out Loud

Well.... as long as he "justed fix" it....

masterblaster84 - 2008-04-14 20:14

It looks well used but not to terrible except for the missing antenna. The price seems to be on the very high end for the condition though.

redbenjoe - 2008-04-14 20:22

gut feel --if one of you guys can win it for very close to the $200 --will be a good box/good buy

I Agree
I was making reference to the $350 BIN being on the high side.
