I have some items of minidisc gear that I'm selling, since they've not been used in years.

See https://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=34&topicid=304442 for discussions from a while ago.

The items include

Sony MDS-JB930 recorder/player - good condition, working. A lovely bit of kit.

Panasonic SJ-MJ70 portable player (tiny!) - fair condition, intermittent switch function, original battery dead, but still runs off add-on battery

Sony MDX-C6500R car minidisc player with AM/FM radio - good condition, was working when removed from the car a long time ago.

Some unused discs, still in packaging, and some home-recorded ones.

I've finally decided they have to go, but before I put them on TradeMe I'll offer them here
for NZD100.

Hey

cool items, have you looked up google to see market prices? Or put in trade me to see interest?

there might be some commercial hi fi traders keen…there’s a couple in Christchurch I believe.

im sure there’s a few audio heads keen too…

theres demand and value in retro audio tech….
id buy those mini disc players as always wanted them ! (Former DJ which transitioned from vinyl to cassette to CD and then to MP3 and mini disc players were the next logical step from tapes but the industry pumped out CDJ players (which became one of the catalysts for the demise for MDs as nobody was publishing on MDs and broadcasters stuck with CD cart players until they went hard drive really early in the mid 90s.

anyhow…

Would you be ok with packing them well and sending them?

I'd like to buy them (I've still got a few minidiscs with some home recordings on them), but won't be in Blenheim until Feb 12th, so understand you selling them to someone else if you want to get them out of the house ASAP :)
