today i had a triple hit at the sally's a JVC-PC-11 a sanyo MX-320K and a sanyo m9990k. the funny thing was they charged me more for the mx-320 because it was clean :blink: funny how people think.so looks like i will make some money as i already have all three .

Glad to see a thrifty somewhere turining up some goods. It has been kinda dry around here. (Though I did snag an M70 last year. :-) )

Sadly, the SA don't do electrics in the UK as the only charity here that has the funds to employ PAT staff (portable appliance testers) for its shops is the British Heart Foundation, and the last time our nearest BHF had a boombox for sale it was a very smelly one that had obviously belonged to someone who smoked 2 ounces of rough shag per week and never opened the windows while they were doing it! Had it been a PC-11, I'd have had it if only so that I could lay claim to owning three of these marvellously reliable, sweet-sounding JVC portable compos, but sadly, that box was some modern, cheap ovoid one and worth at best maybe £5 if it would have supplied any usable spares for real boomers!

NZ appears to be some sort of Heaven for box people! :thumbsup:

I just spent nearly 2 weeks in the Treasure Coast in FL and hit what I believe to be every thrift in the region. Came up with a whole lotta nuthin'. :annoyed:
I have no idea why it's called the Treasure Coast. :hmmm:
Even if someone did drop off a nice classic blaster at a thrift in the States, it would go straight to eBay. They're getting smarter.

Excellent work! Way to take advantage. Love the M9990K! :w00t:

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :clap:

I need no convincing of that, just why are these solid little systems so under rated? The tape transport in particular is of superb quality both in its sound and its build. :yes:

But I'd still grab either or both of the one-piece Sanyos if I ever found them in the wild. :drool:

This reminds me of the 12 days of christmas thread awhile back. Some one needs to find that one again. Didnt the nz boom win that? Or was it norm?
