Zustand: sieht sehr gut aus. Macht Bandsalat.
Keine Garantie und keine Rücknahme
For a Sony Walkman cassette player, €300 is clearly above the recent used market here: it sits well over the €232 75th percentile and far above the €124 median, so this is an ambitious ask unless it’s a genuinely rare variant, mint cosmetically, and unusually complete. In plain market terms, that’s not a bargain-priced collectible; it’s priced like a premium example, and the “for parts” status makes the ask even harder to justify.
That said, these Walkmans still have real appeal: compact Sony transport, nostalgic charm, and strong collector demand when the shell, door, battery compartment, and original accessories are intact. For a buyer, the value is in condition and completeness more than spec-sheet heroics. At this price, I’d want clear evidence of rarity, pristine cosmetics, and exactly what’s included; otherwise, it’s more of a watchlist item than a buy-now deal.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
