Well here it is.
Brand new in box with everything even a Hitachi sealed tape that has all the cool stuff done with songs from 1990.
Pictures tell it all.
I really don't know what to ask for so if it's ok go and make me some offers yet I think it's got to be at least 100.00 plus shipping.
Any questions just ask.
I have been on Ebay for a long time with my user id of Cutra* yet new to this forum.
I'm a trustworthy guy, i'm no scammer and I pack and ship the best i can.

Ooooooooooooooooooo, how tempting! Can I be first in line? Just need to do a little research on this particular model

Ok, after a little research - seems that this particular model is not as good as 3D8, 3D80 or 3D88 - thanks to our Hitachi man Isolator42 for the info!
So I'm going to pass on this - but it would be a great box for those who like NIB boxes

Well i am passing on this as well as I Have 2 of the larger models though I Do like the Idea of NIB boombox's I Like the larger model's

Maybe I should just keep it for myself.
I"m sure it's pretty hard to find one in new with box condition.
Hmmmm.
I think the wife will let me keep it.

I,ve got two boxed ones of these,one sealed.

If know one is interested in it I'll take for $100.00 + shipping. Let me know Cutra .

Welcome aboard Cutra!

If Lopez changes his mind, I'll gladly be second dibs for it...

Thanks!

Well since I have received so much responce.
here is what I will do.
I will sell it for $180.00 u.s. funds including shipping to the u.s.

Let me know who wants it.
Otherwise I will keep it.
Thanks everyone.

Sold.

Don't know if I got the 3D30 because I was the first person to accept Cutra's $180 asking price (shipping from Canada included) or because I PM'd him about a half-hour after he originally listed the 3D30 (about 10 PM Eastern Time on October 30), saying I was interested. But I just bought it. (Hope i'm not stepping on anyone's dibs by doing this. PM me [unless you're Michael Garrett] if you think I did.)

I'll post some glowing feedback for Cutra when the box arrives... and some photos, too. Seems I just can't resist a 3D-in-a-box (with a sticker still on it)!!

Thanks Baby Boomer.
Payment received and now trying to find a big enough box to ship it out for next week.

I just remember that my wife still has her boombox that I bought her back in the 90's when we were going out. Also mint but looks like it's the only one I/we have so it's going to stay with us.
I will post some pictures of it when I get a chance.
Funny enough it's also a Hitachi.

Hold the phone,
I still have my Candle boombox. Very beaten up.
Was awesome in it's time. I will post pictures of it also when I get a chance.

Cutra.

Cutra, sorry to not be so positive about this particular 3D.
I have pretty much all of them, including this one & on it's own it's not a bad machine. It's just that most of the other Hitachi 3Ds are a bit better.
Here's why:

Looks-wise, the 3Ds are all more or less in the same boat - you either like 'em or you don't. Yours scores highly here by being in *perfect* condition, box instructions tape & all.

Sound-wise, none of the 3Ds are HiFi & don't pretent to be, but the mids & highs are fine on all of them. However, for the lows it's all about that centre woofer. Size is everything & the 3D30 is left wanting - it just can't compete with the 6½" woofers of the 3D8, etc. Nice enough sound when quiet, but limited blast-ability. All other 3Ds (apart from the 3D2) have more or bigger woofers & they have more to give when compared directly.

Features-wise it's not so bad - proper line in, twin tape, EQ...

Build-quality also isn't as good as other 3Ds.
It's not as solid as the early ones & there were savings made on the sliders, etc.

All that said, the example you have really is superb. I'm pleased to see that this has found a home with an s2g member.

hmm...I wonder whether a box-fresh 3D30 might be better than my one?

Congrats baby boomer, this box couldn't go to a better person your the man take care .

Thanks! Can't wait 'til this 3D arrives. She's a beauty... just like that other beauty we both know about: the minty, Korean-made Conion C-100F! (Still haven't seen another one like it on eBay... or anywhere.)

(Take that, real-estate-items... or bucket-a-bolts... or pocket-o-puss... or whatever you're calling yourself this week!)
