I have owned this unit for 30 years and never used it. It has spent its life with me in storage, which is a terrible shame. I acquired it from the original owner and I have all the original documentation related to its importation and purchase in 1957.

I wish to sell this unit with the numerous spools of music that come with it, as I am sure that someone out there would derive great satisfaction from it both physically because of its beauty and also for its sound qualities.

Please contact me if you have any interest. I am only too happy to communicate directly with you if you are.

From what I've seen watching eBay, there's not much of a market in Oz for tape decks.

Sometimes the tapes are worth more than the decks, especially if they are famous recordings of in-demand artists.

You might do better advertising on a specialist forum such as:
