Super rare item built in 1986! Has detachable plug in speaker. In excellent condition for its age. Player turns on can see green light on front. But unable to play tape and hear radio. Think my battery might be low and too lazy to try to find new triple a’s. It takes two triple a’s. Battery compartment is clean no signs of corrosion. My loss your gain. Could be that it just needs new battery or a small minor repair to something. Item sells for over 750 in working condition. This retro portable audio player from the Walkman product line offers features such as headphones and cassette playback, making it a unique and sought-after collector’s item for those who appreciate classic electronic devices. With its sleek design and iconic brand, the Hitachi CP-55R is a standout piece for any vintage tech enthusiast.
