Bought the M90 that just sold for an unprecedented (for a box sans remote and packaging) £1,249.00?
At the exchange rate the way it is just now, that's a whopping $1947.91!
It look like a straight enough box, there's a vid (below) to show it working and the seller's patter reads well, mentioning its known flaws and expressing a clearly genuine fondness for the old thing but given that not fully one year back, a boxed one - with remote and in as close to mint order as something could be once it was taken out and played with - sold for a mere £895 on Gumtree, is this an encouraging sign of economic growth and does it mean that my hice are also going to creep out of negative equity again or that people are becoming increasingly desperate to have some good, usable nostalgia in their lives?

Linky-poo.

But yes, I was watching that one too, I know nothing about the model but the seller is someone I've done loads of radio-related transactions with over the past ten years and knowing how scrupulous the fella is, someone will have won themselves a nice buy with that set. I love the idea of it, mad as a box of frogs and definitely tech for its own sake rather than a solution to any genuine need so just my kind of thing.
