    Hi
    What's your opinion on this boombox?
    It's for sale on a site where i live
    seller claims it in good condition no scratches,dents,but missing top of the antenna.
    Prices on ebay are around 30-40 £ ex shipping
    I'm not about to buy on ebay ,shipping it to much.
    The photo looks good.
    Thank you

    I'm a sucker for multi-band boxes, we didn't have many over here. I'd consider that a great basic box, it looks pretty good and pricing seems reasonable, I'd jump on it.

    I did buy this Sharp gf-6060 two days later. Ordered the belts and idle tire, on e-bay.
    when it arrived i fixed it, didn't need much cleaning. It sounds great, especially through my vintage Pioneer SE-7 headphones.
    I completely forgot to post this back then, as i had a accident at work and was away for 8 months :ohmy
    Took few pictures

    Glad your back, work accidents suck!

    Looks like a great box, hopefully you got that broken hub fixed.
