I recently bought a grade A refurbished Sony Sports Walkman WM-F73 from Retrospekt. Not knowing much about the company and the price tag much higher then it was in the late 80's lol I definitely felt like I was taking a gamble despite Retrospekt's reviews being good... From the time I ordered, Retrospekt kept me in the loop the entire way from start to finish and my walkman showed up sooner then I had anticipated. It arrived professionally packaged and protected in a cool Retrospekt box that you would expect a high end electronic item to show up in. Honestly the Walkman blew me away and looked brand new. Every piece was on the machine including the belt clip at the input jack protector which are almost always missing. Besides the flawless cosmetics it worked perfectly!!. play, fast forward, stop, rewind all if it including the radio. I could go on... all of sudden I realized I owned a piece of working pop culture history that nobody else probably owns in this condition, so the price of the machine actually seemed meaningless. If your looking for favorite electronic item from your childhood purchase from here and do not hesitate or someone else will get it. I will definitely purchase from Retrospek again. Great job to everyone at the company.. William in Lake Geneva WI.

The item that I ordered came just as I expected and was in great condition, when I need to, I will be ordering from you guys again. Thanks
I am "Old School" and enjoy Sony Walkman(s), Onkyo Receiver(s), Technics Turntable, and my JC Dual Cassette Recorder (TD-W805). Lost my Sansui 9090 several years ago when it fried itself to a mess. This is my 3rd Walkman I purchased from you, One is still working and the other totally went "blank screen". You folks did not seem interested in allowing me to send it back for another round of repair, so I tossed it. Wasn't happy but it is what it is. This replacement unit is working just fine and I hope it will last for another 4-5 years. Too bad Sony got out of the analog world. There is something to be said for the mechanical tape decks and portable CD and Cassette players. My Panasonic SL-SX270 still works even though the spring lid opener cratered. I do get stares from the Gen Y, Z, and Gen Alpha folks when I am in a waiting room or walking for exercise in the neighborhood. Appreciate you fold finding and restoring these units.
Collecting both the original and the special edition Star Wars VHS tapes, so weβre excited to add this to the collection and in almost perfect condition.
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (Special Edition) VHS Tape
The perfect gift for an Austin Powers fan!
Adding this to the Star Wars collection! In excellent condition.
My favorite childhood Christmas classic! So happy to have it on VHS.
So happy to find a copy of this in such good condition! And nice to have the peace of mind that it has been tested and in working order before purchasing.
10 year old received the player. So cool Just remember to rewind.
Took awhile to respond. Was a present so had to wait for the person to open it. It works, looks great, sounds great, they LOVED it.
Solid VCR to watch my vhs collection. I bought a vcr at goodwill and had nothing but problems with it. Hella happy this was available, thank you Retrospekt
My son loved it. He was so excited that it is an original item (heβs 19). Gen-Xer here - I found the packaging and detailed refurbishment to be very thoughtful, precise and impressive. Beautiful work. The stickers included were a nice touch and appreciated, too. Thank you!
Always wanted this on VHS!
My childhood!
I took Carrot to Yosemite and had a blast. Love this camera.
I was so excited when I finally received this camera. It looks almost brand new which is amazing considering this camera is nearly 40 years old! It works perfectly and the purple color looks great! I am looking forward to capturing photos with this camera for years to come.
It arrived in wonderful condition and works great! Itβs great to break away from modern and go analog again! Thank you for all the hard work you do to restore such pieces!
Received sooner than I expected Excellent condition No issues
Pink Floyd - Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980-81 Cassette Tape Set
Need to return one item because I purchased the wrong film! But everything else including the camera was great! VERY happy with the purchase! Took so many great photos at the state fair that we will have forever now π·β¨ποΈπ‘π
I finally took it out of the box and put a cassette in that I hadn't heard in many years. It is crystal clear and very steady in the playback. I still had memories of a worn-out Sony Walkman that wasn't steady and there were no cassette players by that point. But THIS cassette play IS rock steady and sounds great!
Retrospekt never seems to fail with their products! I got two of these tapes for my VHS camera and they are sturdy, flashy, and a good cheap option for clean tapes!
thx
Just wanted a little piece of nostalgia from when I was a kid and so glad I pulled the trigger. really enjoying it!
My favorite headphones
Thick Replacement Foam Pad Cushions for Headphones - 2" Diameter
The repair was done so perfectly my mind is blown!!! Youβve saved my grandfathers old camera!!
Love it. Tapes!
It works, very cool and full of character, and this is the perfect technology for vlogging! Although, it does not include the compact power adapter, so I just move photos and videos from the SD card, that's fine by me It's also cheap compared to other camcorders. I Defiantly recommend this - if you are really are into old stuff, that is.
Goes perfect with the camera I got for my gf!
My gf loved her gift!
Came in great condition
Stores my photos in a compact, convenient way
Came in great condition with slipcover
This has a fun design and makes a very good gift
Fast shipping
They were perfect for my costume!
Fantastically run business. Beyond pleased. We love our SX70 and so does anyone who sees it. Great coffee table item
Wonderful service. Very timely. I wasnβt around when they were new, but it feels and works like itβs brand new. Also, packaged like it was upon return. Class. You all do a great job, thank you! Keep it up!
Perfect classic 90's clamshell β the prize addition to our Camp Miasma Halloween costumes : )
The clamshells are beautiful , but the plastic covering for the box art has permanent wrinkles from the vacuum packaging.
The refurbished my camera, perfectly, one of the greatest services I have ever paid for.
