After weeks of placing ads in local papers and local internet sites, today I got first serious call. An old lady who used to own consumer electronics store 20 years ago, called, saying that she has a pile of new, unpacked boomboxes, walkmans, radios, even telephones etc. at her home, in a closet, all wrapped up, as leftovers after she closed the store. 
I was trying not to sound excited
and asked her to check up for the brands and models so I can look up on the net.
After 30 minutes of waiting I called her back as we've agreed, but she doesn't speak German (she said they were all imported from Austria), so reading labels and model marks turned into "Warning, danger of electric shock... Do not open... 220V....FM stereo cassette player...".
It ended with agreement that her daughter who visits her every couple of days makes a list and than forward it to me.
I hope they are not eggs.
I hope they are not far Asian noname brands.
I hope I don't end up like forum member with uncle's bargain garage sale.
