Many thanks to SWLing Post contributor, Dan Robinson, who notes that one of his friends is selling a radio with a little history:
[For] anyone interested in an older SONY portable with a bit of history attached (he was VOA East Europe and Jerusalem correspondent).
Thanks for the tip Dan. Now, please, someone purchase this before I do! The BuyItNow price is $59.95 plus a few dollars for shipping. [Either it’s a glitch on eBay or the BuyItNow price might have been removed as I published this–sorry.] I’ve never owned the original SW7600 (though I have a couple SW7600GRs).
Hopefully he gave you a receipt to that effect. It is nice to know the history of that radio. Nice to have good provenance.
I’m prety sure he would if you requested. Dan tells me he’s incredibly nice.
In most categories, if it’s an auction with no reserve, the Buy It Now price will go away after the first bid. If there’s a reserve, Buy It Now will go away after the reserve price is met.
