Magnavox D8300:

I've long adored this box, in part because of its logo-emblazoned strap, and in part because of its last-gasp retro styling that still maintains visual appeal amidst the onslaught of black monsters. I hear it has a 16wx2 amp system, too! It's to be my first and last serious bbox*, so I want it to be a nice specimen, yellow in color, with the shoulder strap, and in full working order. I know these are pretty common and don't fetch much on Ebay, but I thought I'd try my luck here first among fellow board members. Just feels more honest!

*Sorry, but I roommate. Walkmen are smaller!

Well, just bought one on Ebay for a mere $23 + $17 for shipping. Probably about the cheapest vintage-looking box I could buy in working order! Hopefully the tape decks actually function as new, and hopefully it actually kicks out jams well.
