Damn them Italians are crazy, 100 euros for that GF555 was insane. Looked like fun tho!

Cool video, Chris. Go back to the next flea market, and if the GF-555 is still there, offer 20 euros again.

A cool video prices are giddy .

That was fun, doing a market without leaving my chair, nice. Yeh they were crazy prices lol

Yeah, he was nutz, that thing was missing a chrome trim piece and was real rough, add in the fact there there is NO WAY those decks are working. I have brought a few boxes there and every single one of them has been opened and fiddled with. I think Italians, along with thinking they are all F1 drivers and GP moto racers think they are also all watch repairmen

Your going to have to go outside sometime you know!

Well if you see another J1 at a good price, send it my way. Hahaha.

Yeah you can bet most of those boxes probably been opened up more times than a $3 whore.

Just ignore me I'll never win the mr. Belvedere Congeniality award when I'm full of whiskey.

Thanks for the vid Chris, nicely done.

Great vid chris, should have been much longer for cripples like me to see lol...nothing worth having there though, the gf555 looks great but it's just a vibrator with batteries lol, thanks man.

Thanks for this video.
Sometimes on flea market you can find rare boomboxes on really good prices,
sometimes only garbage, but is so interesting to visit this place.

The 555 was no way worth 100euro, even 20 euro was pushing it with the trims missing, i would have bought the 5454 if it was cheap, good little budget bbox

Thanks guys...

If it was a few years back and my coffers weren't already full, I would have bought all of them except the 555. I'm always looking for something HUGE just in case!

I'm hoping to hit some much larger flea markets next weekend up in Castera, I might take my camera for that one too

The funny thing is that he swear at you when you didnt want to buy it !!

Oh yeah, he was TOTALLY offended at my 20 euro offer, him and his buddy were straight laughing at me as he told me to get away from his booth

That box will be there next week and the week after

It almost doesn't matter what box you find, but the thrill of finding it is AWESOME! Felt like I was there with ya!
