Latest addition... Fischer cassette box
« on: 27 February 2010, 16:25 »
Arrived today, bought off ebay, Ive been after one of these for ages, but always went for stupid money...£130+ in some cases, so was happy at £30+pp...
It looked in great shape, only very grubby and fluff filled, so was stripped down to its individual components, and washed thoroughly in very hot soapy water, dried, and each item was given a shot of Mr Sheene, wiped, and reassembled, and is now in mint condition

It looks pristine - how about a pic of it installed? I would be interested to know how well designed it was for fitting.

Nice buy - saw a CD version go for £45 recently. Even rarer I guess so a good price.

Sorry but think you paid over the odds for that, its the cd versions that go for mega money, the cassette ones are worthless, i got mine for free as did a few other people i know!

CD version is useless to me, as I have the origional Blaupunkt tape player..... and I'll spend 30 quid on a round of drinks tonite at the Pub!
Its like anything else, you try finding something that's becoming rarer, year to year... you'll kick yourself for it, and ending up with nothing....
I just need some sh!tty old 80s tapes to fill it up now, any suggestions will be taken with a pinch of salt :grin:

I'll get a pic of it fitted...
