Just seeing if anyone would be interested in a few MD players that are sitting in my room collecting dust.

I have a couple MZ-E25's. A silver one and a blue one. These work perfectly fine and are in almost new condition. Only thing it's JUST the players. No remote with display or anything. These don't record or support MD's recorded on long play, just recorded on regular play. $40 each.

Also, I have an MZ-R50. This one, however, has been pretty battered and bruised. The display screen on it is cracked, but it comes with a remote with display on it, so you can see what's going on. This does have recording capabilities, but it's a little hokey sometimes. Maybe cleaning the lens on it will help a bit. This would come with the battery and charger. $20, no returns.

Each player would come with alteast an MD, maybe more if I can find some. I may still even have some of the pouches kicking around too if I dig around for it.

If anyone's interested, I'll post some pictures when I get home later this evening.

BTW, first come, first served.

Okay, due to the amount of interest in the MD players, I've taken the time to check out the players thoroughly and take some pictures. Here's the deal:

The silver MZ-E25 and the MZ-R50 will be sold together and not split up.

The silver MZ-E25 works perfectly and is in excellent condition. This is just a player; it doesn't record. Also, this does not support LP recordings or NetMD.

The MZ-R50, however, isn't in as wonderful condition. The screen is cracked, so there is no display, but it comes with the remote, which does have display. Also, the remote doesn't change tracks (fast forward, rewind, last track, next track). The remote can be used on either player. Sometimes it has difficulties reading the discs right away, so you'll have to take the disc out and try again until it does read. Once it does recognize the disc, playing and recording is just fine.

Here's what will come together with this:
MZ-E25
MZ-R50
remote
battery & charger
5 minidiscs
carrying pouch

Best offer over $60 by Friday gets it. For the MZ-E25 alone, I think this is worth it. Once it's gone, it's gone and stays gone, which means no returns, so caveat emptor.

Now, for the blue MZ-E25, unfortunately this has some problems. For some reason it's not recognizing any of the discs and I think the reason why is because the little module the lens is on isn't moving. If you have any mechanical/electrical know-how or want to take this to get repaired yourself and want to take a chance, $20 takes it. Again, no returns. The player itself is in good condition. I'll even throw in a brand new unopened disc.
