I was looking on eBay hoping some bargain/reasonably priced Walkman would pop up (no luck) and saw a seller with a heap of Walkman for sale. All are used, not boxed, most don’t work and all have in the description about a Peter that had the largest Walkman collection in the Southern hemisphere. Some I would love, even not working ..but too expensive for me unfortunately. I kinda remember someone chatting here about a collector that’s not around any more. Anyone know this Peter?
i’ve been a walkman-collector since at least 30 years, one of the earliest members of „pocketcalculatorshow“ site (registered in 1999 !) and have no idea who this could be. sounds interesting
Do you think they were in Australia? If I had to guess I'd say The Lion but I think they are still kicking around and I don't know what they own. https://personalhifiblog.blogspot.com/ There's been a handful of people over the years with some amazing units, I don't know what is considered the largest or the best, Kent would certainly be in the top. I've got boxes of entry to mids but I wouldn't really add them to my shelves. Most were freebies with other stuff. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/N6MK-WBf9gc
Oh yeah, I think Kent would have the biggest collection of players and tapes in the world. Is he still around? I just though I remember something about a Peter and passing away here on this forum..must be mistaken. this seller is Australian for sure, so I assume their dad was as well.
