I told my grandma I had gotten into collecting walkmans so she went out and bought me this. So now I have a Walkman that means the world to me cause she bought it for me but it sound like you think it does. Sometimes sentimental value matters more than actual value this is one of those times.

pricing of the stranger things Walkman is getting ridiculous now. I bought my WM-8 five years back and paid like £20 for it. It’s not even a particularly good model, sounds like crap. This is beyond the price of what a good Walkman Professional goes for now and this example doesn’t even work lol.

Anyone else feel like the window shape and placement on We Are Rewind is an odd design choice? It feels tacked on without thought of how a cassette will look inside it. Sure it looks great without a tape in it but it’s weird and offset with one.
