Okay, it is very seldom that I ever see a decent, vintage cassette-related ANYTHING in the thrift or consignment stores in my area. And I typically shun anything mono, and especially with the Lloyd's name on it simply because most of the Lloyd's boomboxes I've ever seen were plastic-fantastic-junk.
However, for a paltry $3 I simply couldn't pass by this attractive little player. I fell in love the minimalist black and silver retro styling. They let me test it in the store with an AIR SUPPLY prerecorded tape and it appeared to be working fine. Upon arriving home and hitting it with a little bit of Orange-glo, I'm pleased to show off this little gem.
Tapes sound surprisingly good and the AM & FM radio bands pull in stations better than many of the other radios I own.
Chekkitout!

Jaetee with all of your points except the sound, I've never heard one so I'll take your word on it. 
I notice an AUX jack on the side, looks like it will play an external source.
