I am cleaning out the minidisc gear drawer and thought might be worthwhile to see if anybody here on the MD enthusiast forum has interest before going to ebay. One of the players already went to ebay just recently, so that one will have to be bid on if any interest:

I also have a Sharp 702 player/recorder that is mint and probably only been used a handful of times. I can't find the charger, but have one on the way right now, so that will be a few days before ready to sell here or on ebay. I bought that and the Sony (that is now on ebay) plus an MD deck plus an MD car head unit right at the end of the MD golden era. I never really had a need for the portables--just got sucked into the game before thinking about what would really be used. The deck is long gone, and the car MD unit went on ebay several weeks ago. I also have 170 or so (need to count again) minidiscs that were recorded on one time to compile the best of my extensive classic rock collection plus some selected blues, 60's obscure garage rock, and a few other things for mobile use in the car. Well, the car got sold to a friend shortly after installing the MD deck, so I gave the disc collection to him and he used it for a while and then sold the car. He pulled the deck and put the factory radio back in--thought I might want to use the deck again someday. I used to to fill a spot on the closet shelf... I am guessing 80-90% of the MD's were never even played after recording, so almost everything is in great condition, but it is not like the minidiscs would wear out like a tape and such anyway.
If anybody has interest, let me know. If not, off to ebay. I did notice that a lot of 77 mix "tapes" like mine sold recently for 125 bucks on ebay, so there does seem to be a market there if no interest here. Over 20 bids which surprised me--did not think this MD still had such a strong following until finding this forum and seeing MD stuff was selling briskly on ebay. I even got seventy something bucks for the MD car deck listed as not working for parts!!! Yikes!
This is my first post here, but I am active on a lot of forums and ebay and have perfect feedback and trader record, so you can check my references.
