The old days for me were the early 2000's when the forum was new and I found other collectors that were still interested in the cassette format. One of the guys used to love the Taiwan Knock-offs or AKA's and I found a few on the same day. The Music Trek is a nicer player with all metal construction and all of these were around one USD. I first posted this around 2004, it's hard to believe it's been over 14 years!
Thanks T-ster! I'm impressed with the quality of my old digital camera, I think it was an Olympus, I used to really like their cameras. Unfortunately most of the original forum before 2007 is lost, even on the wayback machine it only has the thread titles but not the threads, I've found some of my old photos I posted while looking through my computer.
I have a backup of the old site, what was your forum name? I could see if there are any pics i can recover....
