OK, starting with the lucky thrift find. This little bad boy is in need of a clean and some belts but a little beauty I'm sure you'll all agree.

It has featured of late but in another colour. This one is in a light gold, champagne colour, kinda similar to the rc m71:

The Sanyo 7880

Closely followed by this other mini Sanyo that I recently scored from Llopez (Great guy to deal with btw). When it arrived it needed a bit of detailing and a quick blast of the magic spray but it is in fantastic condition and has been high on my wants list since I decided to seek out a mini,

The irresistible Sanyo 7900

The next one is, once again, a sanyo. A bit bigger this time. I've been on the look out for one of these for a while and was lucky enough to snag this one on ebay for $100.
I thought it was a fairly good price. Cosmetically it's very nice, needs a good detailing but it'll come up nice. It's missing the antennae tips and needs new belts (I'll save that for my retirement as I gather it's a big job. I wont be retiring for about 35 years by the way!)

Sanyo M9998K

And finally, I decided to buy from China. There has been some pretty good press at the moment from a particular seller so I thought I'd go for it.
I can honestly say that M40dotcom is exactly right!!!!!! A great experience!! This box took 4 days to get to me from China and was expertly packed. My only MINOR gripe was that communication with the seller wasn't outstanding but I give him the benefit of the doubt as he probably doesn't speak English. I will definitely be dealing with him again if the right box comes up. This is working like a dream and only has very minor wear. I'd give it a 9.8 out of 10. Pretty bloody good!!!!!!!
I'm seriously impressed with this box, it wipes the floor with my 777...........

Just like M40dotcom...............It's a Toshiba WX-1!!!!!!!

Go out and get one NOW!!!!!!!

Toshiba rules! :cool: Might have to hop on the bandwagon and cop one of those... maybe...

The Sanyo's are dope too - especially the 7880! :cool:

Congratulations!

Those little Sanyos are every bit the "heavy hitter" as that huge Toshiba. :yes: Congratulations, Alfie. :thumbsup:

Now that I've seen the Sanyo 7880 in blue and champagne colors, I think I like the champagne color better. It accents the red and blue better. :-)

Thanks for all the comments guys,

I'd have to agree, the sanyos all sound terrific. If you shut your eyes you can barely tell you're listening to a mini with the 7900 & 7880.

As for the 9998 it has an amazing, warm sound. It's more of a high end home stereo quality than boombox imho.

As for the Tosh?????
Jump on that band wagon, you wont be disappointed!!! Especially you Mono, I know you've got a soft spot for everything Toshiba.............
