I love it! Those are so great ads, also nice to see how expensive they were back then!!! Makes me feel better about buying them today to collect, at least I'm not the only person who spent a fortune on them :-) (figure inflation and the price would be really up there today, well if electronics were still that expensive today anyway!)

Thanks AHARDBODY!

It's not on there ( the price) but I believe I paid like $365 for my Aiwa CS-880 from a mail order catalog, (remember mail order and catalogs before online, lol ), a lot of money back than for a jobless 16 year old!
