Hi zoners,

 

i found a working dictaphone and thought my kids would like to play with it. Unfortunately it needs a cassette.

 

 

 

Does any one have one in a drawer they want to get rid of?

 

Since it's just for the kids I'm hoping I can pay for your postage or buy you a coffee.

 

I'm in wellington.

 

Cheers,

 

Chris

Dunno if these are any good. Put perhaps better just buying something like this?

Thanks for the tip but I would prefer not to add to the world's landfill.

 

If i can find a cassette my kids will understand wow and flutter :-)

Ebay might be your best bet. It's hard finding analogue camcorder tapes in this country let alone dictaphone cassettes. How much are you prepared to pay? I might be able to help for at least $200, as I do have one lying around somewhere but would need to find it, and as they say - time is money.
