DB,

Look at the price of that Soundesign. snip

A little poking around tells a tale.

Looks like a classic shill job to me, and they have a fish on the
hook. These things routinely go at junk stores for $10 to $20, at
garage sales for even less. The fact that some sucker would pop a
$120 bid for such trash confirmed to the seller that he'd hooked a
fish and then called the shill into play. Note the $10 incremental
bids. This is a lucrative scam...the seller grosses 500% on the item,
and usually cuts the shill in for 10%.

soundesign is about as crap as it gets.

this one wont play quad records its just stereo. you are thinking of
that 549 dollar stereo on ebay.

True. This one won't even play stereo, really...those ceramic
cartridges are crap...Nudo quality.

dB

whatever you do Rusty, don't trust anyone who drives a 79 Honda, to
judge "quality" of a stereo component for you

just remember- look at what they DRIVE.

the AM mono radio of cars !

WRONG

the bidding started at $89, and now that guy is WINNING IT. So he
can't be a shill.

You DUMB ASS. check for yourself

Looks like a nice clean unit.
They do not make them anymore.
Buyers will decide the value, scarcity, and peril of these items.
What's the beef?
Oh right, 8 tracks are crap.

A nice, clean turd is still a nice, clean turd.

Soundesign stuff was utter crap, similar in bad quality to Emerson.
Look at that turntable...cheesy record eating ceramic cartridge? I
DON'T THINK SO! Cheap plastic face plate hide the even cheaper
electornics inside. This unit is junk that someone Windexed and
Pledged to find a fish...and they found one.

"Buyers deciding" is sort of a misnomer...it's "dumbasses deciding."
This unit's worth about $20, tops.

good post WWW...

next we'll hear all cars suck too, because his is a crappy Honda
