Ich verkaufe einen Sharp GF-8585.
Er wurde zuletzt als Werkstattradio benutzt und hat entsprechende Gebrauchsspuren. Das Radio funktioniert ohne Probleme.
Richtig schöner, echter, ursprünglicher Sound.
Das Tapedeck ist ungetestet.
Abholung in Duisburg Wedau oder Duissern
€230 is fair-to-strong for a Sharp GF-8585 if it’s clean, working, and not missing anything major; for a desirable vintage Sharp boombox, that sits in the range where good examples tend to trade rather than feeling inflated. It is not an automatic bargain, but it is priced sensibly enough that a healthy unit would be a reasonable buy.
What makes it worthwhile is the appeal of the machine itself: these Sharp GF series portables have a strong following for their big, punchy, “fun” presentation and solid late-70s/early-80s industrial charm. If the radios, cassette transport, meters, antennas, and battery/AC operation are all intact, the upside is mainly in originality and cosmetic condition rather than pure spec-sheet performance. At this price, I’d focus on confirming the tape deck functions properly, the speakers are clean, and any accessories or missing trim are accounted for.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sharp is a Japanese electronics company founded in 1912 by Tokuji Hayakawa, who began with a small metalworking workshop in Tokyo. The company’s name comes from its early “Ever-Ready Sharp” mechanical pencil, and its broader corporate identity grew out of a long history of practical consumer innovation rather than specialist audio alone.
In audio, Sharp has been associated mainly with mainstream consumer hi-fi and AV rather than ultra-audiophile hardware. Over the decades it has produced items such as radios, televisions, receivers, and other home-electronics components; in the modern era its audio presence is tied more to compact systems and mass-market electronics than to a deep catalog of standalone amplifiers, DACs, turntables, or headphones.
In market terms, Sharp is best understood as a heritage Japanese consumer brand with periodic involvement in audio, not a dedicated high-end hi-fi marque. For knowledgeable buyers, that means the brand carries historical legitimacy and recognition, but its reputation is closer to reliable mid-market electronics than boutique or reference-grade specialist audio.
