This is kind of shocking

Not even the original foams!

must be the walkman that was used in the super 8 movie

another good example of over the top,  but if there happy with it what the hell.

I agree, I think it's great for both seller and buyer.

Just out of interest, did anyone see Stephen Fry's top 100 gadgets a while ago on telly?

no but i presume it was interestering, very clever bloke mr fry he suffers from bad depression watched a documentry on him very interesting.

heres another interesting one,i love these,i think i still have a broshure some where with one of these in..

I mention it as some of the items on there were mine, notably the TPS-L2, the apple peeler, the Apple newton PDA and the answer machine.  Not wanting to brag

blah blah blah
boooooooooooooooooooring

Why i aughta.....

is that a world $$ record for any type // style walkman ?

About 4 years ago a tpls2 went for over €3000, was NIB and the 701T, they go for €2400, when one show up, took me 8 years to find one and wasn't working, needed a new belt, but these were only given to celebrities, so fetch alot of money. The regular 701c is the same unit different casing, 701T or 701S is only for display and can't really touch it, or use it, as silver oxidized and have to keep it very clean.

thats amazing --

i have a dozen or so old classic metal walkmans -

prolly paid US$100 or less on average --

never thought these sold for that much -

even the best boomboxes dont get that far $$ up there

Those were the good days, use to always go to thriftstores and garage sales, or meets, all the time, finding metal walkmans, tape recorders and good boomboxs for $5 to $20  bucks, camcorder for $20 bucks some flagship models and just traded or got some stuff for free even. Now everything overpriced, even thriftstores charges $75 for a crap box just because it has a cd player, or component stereo system for $150 that doesn't even work. Most of the stuff doesn't hit the floor, goes to eBay now.

Yes I watched and enjoyed it. Nice collection Agent...

Thanks Nak, I knew someone would appreciate it.  They were good actually, sent stuff back in perfect fettle.  Same production company that do The Gadget Show & they've had a lot of my crap come through their doors too.

I remember! Personallly not sure how anybody could call your stuff boring, it's fantastic, some items I'm sure would fit into the asperational thoughts of many. Taking of which (bit off topic) how's the stereo search coming along?

Ah, Claret Badger's just taking the mickey, he's OK....I hope

'The stereo search' oh crumbs, sounds like another shelved project, remind me?

Wow! Incredible! I never even think of pay such big money!

^^^^ at least he is not selling it on here ,  that would be amusing.

I saw that Cris.

Hope you got all your jumble back OK...

This one!
