Hi folks. I am still looking for a 5250 or 5150 in full working order and decent cosmetic shape. I am in the USA, east coast. Thank you.

i see 5150's every week on ebay, most are fully functional too

Thanks but I prefer to buy from somebody here to assure that I get a good working boombox.

Hi! I have a Panasonic RX-5250LS with shortwave that is in good shape cosmetically and all functions work to specs from AM/FM/Shortwave tuner to all cassette functions. PM me if interested. Thanks!

and i have the other one --its a nice looking (not great) 5150 -- all working -- for $100 plus shipping --
please pm me if interested - thank you

-----
btw - the 5250 is a better looking design and much more rare than a 5150

Hey Matixambience check your PM!

I got the RX-5250 I've always wanted, thanks to matrixambience, so no longer looking for one. This STG board is great! The members here have been wonderful!

No James, I paid more for mine but mine is almost mint. Mine is the European version with 2 shortwave bands and a dial light. I was glad to get my 5250 from a STG member so I knew for sure that I wasn't going to get ripped off. I am always leary of paying over $40 for an Ebay purchased boombox, since there are alot of either misinformed or dishonest Ebay sellers. The last decent boombox I got off Ebay was my RX-5180 which I paid $40 for and was exactly as described and looks and works great. You will love the 5250, as it has a nice full bodied sound to it.
