Greatest bargains or Walkman finds

minty - 2012-07-23 02:14

So Kingrat got himself a Sony WM-2 for two euro. That has to be a bargain. I once purchased a Sony EX2HG boxed and unused for thirty euro. That was my greatest bargain.

So what are your guys greatest bargains or finds?

DC2. $3. (about US$2.)

TPSL2. $5.

 

Most of my collection is less than $10 each.

WM-DD9. £25.50 delivered. Believe it or not, from eBay! Terrible listing with a laughable photo. Here is the original shot saved from the webpage for your amusement

So many amazing bargains have been lucky over the years.  Most of time the subject line is poorly done, bad photo/description.  My BEST BARGAIN is the Panasonic RX-HD10 BOXED double recorder Rarest of Holy Grails from eBay Feb. of 2011 winning bid $15.50 + $10 shipping =   TOTAL $25.50 !!!!  

It was near mint and WORKING ...... a good day of shopping

WM-F22 for £1, doors a bit of a mess due to being painted previously and leaving a damaged finish, but its fully working and sounds great

Ah, gotcha. Yeah, as John Edward says if it's badly listed it's not going to get the hits. FWIW it was not the best example...but it does play well. Most likely not worth that much as it's had a couple of knocks prior to me getting it.
