Due to known issues, price reflects and unit sold AS IS.

  • Panasonic RE-7680 Wooden Multiplex Stereo Radio IC FET FM AM

    A Vintage Panasonic RE-7680. Wood casing in acceptable condition with a couple of chips. System powers on, switches and dials function as expected with analog technology. Some of the dial lights are out (or flicker). Functionality untested of the amp and radio are untested. Some damage is present on the front left casing, mainly a missing silver cover with dried glue residue (presumably the same glue that originally held the silver siding on). Scratch and scuff marks also on the control panel.

  • Panasonic turntable

    Everything works great except the reverse and fast forward on both cassettes. When I try them, nothing happens and the button clicks back into place. Check out my other vintage things listed!
