Hey guys, I have no idea where to put this so I'm putting it here. If it belongs elsewhere, could a Mod please move it?
Ok, I picked up an old Akai reel to reel player/ 8 track player at a thrift store because it looked cool. I know its not realy a phonograph or record player, but I thought someone out there might be able to give me an estimated value? Thanks in advance,
Nate

There was one at a recent radio swap meet here in Sarasota, with an asking price of $75. It did not sell.

Thats what I was afraid of. Its more modern, no tubes, so I was afraid it might not be in demand.
Oh well.

Was it something similar to this? They are similar to Roberts (who bought out Akai or vise versa). They are both self-contained units with amps and speakers, but the Roberts is a tube unit and doesn't have the 8-track.
All of my machines, and others not shown, were given to me.--BB
