macbeth Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 SOLD Item: Sony CDP-101 CD Player Location: Melbourne, Westmeadows, 3049 Price: $10, pickup only from 3049 Item Condition: Jurassic Reason for selling: Paper Weight Payment Method: Pickup - COD Only Extra Info: I bought this from a Cash Converters for $150 as working. It wasn't. The tray was laboured moving in and out. I found a service center named "Trevor Lees", and I took the player there. After a few weeks, the player was returned to me. I paid just under $200 for the repair. I can now confidentially say that the unit will NOT catch on fire when powered on. That's all. This is my first attempted sale on SNA. Not a good introduction really. Sorry. Pictures: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOOTYtooty Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Lovely old unit! I suggest a return to the repairer if it was "fixed", they should sort it for you. Welcome to Stereonet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooneeBeach Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I don't suppose you have the remote control? I'd be willing to pay a bit for that! My CDP-101 skips a bit after a while, but I am reluctant to pay for a service as I think it may have had its day. At least yours has the 'It's a Sony' sticker - I really wanted a player with that still intact. It's a bummer that you've spent so much on this.

Ooogh Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Don’t undersell the unit Macbeth. This is the first commercially available CD player of all time. As such an important piece of history and an engineering accomplishment that took a huge amount of people way more clever than me to design. I am still constantly amazed that we can listen to music from a shiny disc. Worth $10 just as a conversation piece. Sorry to here you gor screwed twice along the way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
