Does this have any use for anyone? My uncle has it and wants to sell it. Not sure if it has any value though.  :scratch:

I see one on eBay for $70.

If it works and you would ship it to Illinois I'd be interested.

I'm trying to find a cassette deck in good condition locally to digitize a few leftover tapes, so looking to borrow not buy, but seems ~reasonable if it is in good working order.

For comparison, I almost bought a Nakamichi in a thrift shop for $22. I think that model (can't remember which) on e-bay was going for about that.

You should post an ad in the Trading Post if you're looking to sell it.  Old cassette decks that haven't been refurbished are not worth much.  This model is only a 2 head deck with Dolby B so is not as desirable as a 3 head deck.  If it records and plays it's worth a few bucks, but not likely worth the time to pack and ship it, at least for me it wouldn't.  That one on eBay had a sale for $40 fall thru and has been relisted.  For myself I would give it to Goodwill or just keep it.
