Where to find old Sony Walkman...

[Pollywog]

Not the yellow plastic ones, but the classic retro ones. I have a few projects I want to start by modifying the casing, but they seem to be very hard to find. Anybody seen any at any thrift stores in town, or possibly have one sitting up in their attic that I could take off your hand$?

eBay, tons there. Too bad I tossed my two Walkman players out a fifteen years ago, when I switched to MD format, which was tossed out when the iPod came along.

I've got one of these kicking around somewhere. It's really small (about the size of a cassette) and must be close to 30 years old.

Only problem is, one of the drive belts must have broken as it stopped working.

I can try and find it if you think you can get it going. I might even have the auxillary battery pack, but the clips to the top are broken.

Working condition doesn't matter - I'm ripping all of the innards out anyways.
