    Default Wanted - any really cheap cassette player

    I made myself feel great by giving some surplus low fi / hi fi to my brother in law ! I had a Technics SU 700 amp with remote I loaned /gave him , a pair of really nice Mission 733's and a Panasonic CD player that was actually bought new by him 25 yrs ago. And a Triumph branded dd turntable made by Rotel. A few new stylus , and a brush ,and all leads ,connects.
    But he wondered if I had included a cassette seperate ?

    So , has any kind soul, got an old , but functional unit , that they can offer me please?? Nothing at all special ,just one that would be ok to partner his 'new' stuff

    Thanks in advance

    Either Grant
    I see most are fetching between 20 and 100 on the bay .
    I have 2 older ones but one has a dodgy magnetic head and the other needs new belts (Its an Hitachi made for Triumph /Currys and I cant source any, or else I would let him have one of mine )
    He has got lots of old audio cassette tapes apparently
