To open or not to open?

These came with my Conion C-100F as sort of a bonus:

Are these rare, and should remain sealed, or are they very common and I can just rip open the package and make my Conion look that much cooler with one of these spinning in it? - lol!

Oh, and I'm not trying to sell these! I don't want to break any rules just yet at least!

AWESOME! Love you guys already!

 

[Fatdog]

Yeah, definitely open!!

Open - for sure. What I'd do, anyway!

If you want a museum piece, you could buy one of those $600 Pioneer reel tapes off ebay. Stick it in its own pedestal display with a clear dome cover, some fancy lighting and lots of motion sensors to ward away the burglars.

Definitely open! They'll look better in your boomer than in the package.

Those will never be collector-worthy like the Teac reel tapes, which I'd probably tell you to open as well...

Always and forever, play with your toys!

Does anyone make these today? Or are these a thing of the past?

Someone makes a knock-off on ebay in lots of 3/6/15 etc.... in different colors too. But, just about all of them are vintage and not made anymore.


If you just want the look of the REEL tapes, check out th Eagle brand 15 min tapes to have in your decks when not in use. Spruces up the look of the BBX at a fraction of the cost. Some guys even wind more tape material into those Eagle Reel cassettes . They are white reels too BTW.

Cool thanks! I don't see any of those "Eagle" tapes on eBay or anywhere else, but I'll keep an eye out for them for sure!

Thanks,
