Looking for one of these solenoid-operated decks from the 1980, a Sony TC-K65. It was my second tape deck, and the love of my audio world for a long time. Lost mine in a divorce (sad, tawdry tale) but would love to get ahold of another. If you got one, lemme know.

Here's what one looks like ...

I saw one of those decks on ebay.es (Spain) but the bid closed in late August.

Nice looking deck. I wouldn't mind owning one myself.

I have one of these in good cosmetic condition. Let me know if there is still interest.

I personally know Dave (Grateful).

He gets high marks for satisfaction, and my full support and recommendation.

Absolutely! Oh heck yea! PM me or e-mail me and let's talk. Thanks. And if thedelihaus vouches for someone then they must be a-ok! Thanks Paul.

Close, but no cigar. What you shipped me was a Sony TC-K61, not a TC-K65. Close e'nuff, I guess, but not really the model I wanted and had advertised for. I'll keep it and continue my search.

Well sorry. I gave it to you for free. I guess no good deed goes unpunished. Unit looks identical to me but I didn't compare model numbers.

Well, I'm not squabbling over price but it wasn't free. Shipping was half of the amount sent to you so unless the Tooth Fairy took her cut, you made SA-money on it. But I'm not squabbling over price at all and I'm happy with what I paid. I'll keep it since it's one of the series that I like so much, but I'm just noting that it's not the model number agreed upon. And these two models are far from identical. But thanks anyway, and I'll keep looking.

Hi! I do have one of these REALLY! BUT, big BUT. I live in the UK so it's going to be VERY expensive to send to USA, unless you can think of some way of transporting it!

Hi again! I've just noticed there is a Sony TC-X65 listed on ebay in the States if that helps you more. Listed Item No. is 280316812099. Cheers, David

Thanks. I'm already watching that one. Cheers though!

I'll keep yours in mind. It's something I might be willing to handle.
