Saw this ad on the French Riviera, near Saint Tropez:

https://www.leboncoin.fr/vi/1167943203.htm (EDIT : this link no longer works)

Price is ridiculous, but you need space Wink

 

NB: I'm not the seller

I have Eddie. I'm organizing possible collection by a non-Beoworld forum member. It is too far from where I live.

One day, these will be worth money...

I had one for a while, at home. The sound was superb!  I paid pennies for it, and sold it for the same amount.

Beautiful craftsmanship from a time where carpentry was a specialism in Struer.

It was the very rare B&O shoe shine Kit in Rosewood case. Very unusual to find them with the original tins of shoe polish intact and unused!

Ban boring signatures!

Exactly, and it was Geoff preferred colour Stick out tongue

(In fact, it was a Beomaster 900 RG De Luxe, cabinet plus a BM900 and a BG1000, at 50€)

 

Hope you're at your best now Jacques

Hi mates, Thanks, I'm slowly recovering from a cerebral vascular thrombosis. Not much fun this.

That same ad on LBC caught my eye too as soon as it appeared. Was tempted, but the 11hr round trip drive put me off. Then a Beocenter 9500 & Beolab 3000's appeared almost on my doorstep, which I snapped-up. Wink No regrets!

I am the fortunate guy. Sorry jacques.

It was really in good condition despite the fact the beogram doesn't work.

I actually renovate only the top due to the usual traces of usage.

Eddie, you come and see it when you want ;)

I will have a look to the speakers, radio and beogram later, Some work for this winter.

the deal was made very quickly around 30 mn after the ad appears. It was on line several days because I came for the pick up some days later.

so don't have any regrets

The old lady has only one word and refused offers around 500 euros after our agreement.

I gave her a very good bottle of wine.

She bought it in Denmark
