Realistic Stuff - $90

http://www.usedvictoria.com/classified-ad/11363509

So the ad is a bit wrong. It is a STA-820 ... 40 wpc - 0.06% THD - 2 phono inputs.

The speakers are Optimus 25's - real walnut veneer with 10" woofer, 4" mid and 2.5" tweeter and mid/treble controls.

The turntable is a LAB390 - DD with strobe and pitch control.

.... all from 1981.

See http://www.radioshackcatalogs.com/catalog_directory.html

Looks like a nice system for $90 .. hmmm .... no tunes in the garage yet ...

Not mine.

It's amazing/depressing how many of these come up in usedvic. I wonder how successful they are?

I assume you are speaking of the scammer .... not the equipment!

Hopefully this guy would have better luck raising money for school by standing on the median at Blanchard and Hillside with a squeegee ... from his location map he appears to live only half a block away! ... hmm he's probably squating in the old Holiday Court Motel.
 
VVs has a pair of Yamaha NS-220 "Rock Monitors" and a pair of Realistic T-100s, which I see being discussed on the Speaker(s) forum.
 
...can't say I like it. Reminds me of Kijiji. I'm sure we'll get "used" to it!

It looks like they've done this to all the usedXXXXXX sites, as I've just noticed it on UsedCalgary too...sigh. I don't like it at all. I find it now like Kijiji as whaleoil mentioned. Luckily for me (I guess) is that not many Calgarians use that site, but prefer Kijiji (ugh) and CL more. :thumbsdn:
