Title: i cant believe it, sell ur old fisher prices on ebay NOW
Post by: enid_b on January 13, 2007, 22:14
this has just made me almost fall off my chair.

a second hand head unit on ebay, current price is £175 and there is still 14 hours on it.

i sold mine last year for £60 (the sony one) and i was over the moon. (this one is currently dearer that the alpine i replaced it with !!!)

good time for an upgrade me thinks for those of u pondering a new year mod.

As far as I can remember mine went for over £100 on ebay. They usually sell well.

While we're at it, the stock speakers have been going for over £50 too. I wonder if the ppl buying them have any idea what they are, or are they just looking at Toyota's list price.  s:? :? s:?

Quote from: "daz8365"What is best, this one that has just sold of the Sony one???

if u meant  fisher price or sony daz then IMHO i think its the sony.  seems to be less posts complaining about the sony one.

I think the sony one looks better, plus it also plays tapes. Doesn't have the facility for satnav though (mind you mr t's satnav isn't the best from what I've heard)

Why would someone want one of these anyway, let alone at that price?? Even if yours was stolen would be cheaper to get an aftermarket replacement.

Well , not my money.

If I could guarnatee mine would sell for 200 notes I'd get a nice new shiny alpine headunit.

........ plus the aerial goes down when not in use   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  , for which the fisher price attracts a fair proportion of posts

I may consider selling my face unit if they are going for that price.

How much would a decent head unit and the brackets to change over cost, what kind of region?

Could I do it for under £200.00?

Just something that looks nicer than the stock one.

Post by: scottish_turbo on January 24, 2007, 18:48
How much!!

Thats pretty good. Don't suppose I'd be able to sell the one out of my import with mini disc and cd though!

Put mine on and it has three days to go; currently £99.99 with 31 watchers  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
Title:
Post by: heathstimpson on January 29, 2007, 06:20
Oh well even with all those watchers it stayed at the reserve of £99.99. Better than sitting in my loft I suppose and saves me changing everything if I ever sell  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

31 watchers is a huge amount for what you would have thought to be quite a niche item. Definitely got me thinking about selling mine now. Up until now if I was thinking of changing mine I wouldnt have even thought about bothering to sell the old one as doubted anyone would have wanted it!

Post by: roger on February 7, 2007, 12:14
I put myself as a "watcher" when I have no interest in buying an item, but just like to see how it goes.

Guess the other 30 are also members here   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Post by: Anonymous on February 7, 2007, 12:24
Yeah I guess, probably 31 people looking to see how much they could get for theirs!

What's a tape?   s:P :P s:P

Post by: Anonymous on February 7, 2007, 13:22
Exactly who listens to tapes!!!!
BUT, I have an ipod and thats the way I connect it to car!!
Very old fashioned but Ive got used to the sound quality now and its much bassier than listening to a cd directly so actually prefer it!
