Exactly, and it was Geoff preferred colour 😎

(In fact, it was a Beomaster 900 RG De Luxe, cabinet plus a BM900 and a BG1000, at 50€)

 

Hope you're at your best now Jacques

Hi mates,

Thanks, I'm slowly recovering from a cerebral vascular thrombosis. Not much fun this.

Ban boring signatures!

Aww crap! I need one 🙁

Speedy recovery, Jacques!

That same ad on LBC caught my eye too as soon as it appeared. Was tempted, but the 11hr round trip drive put me off. Then a Beocenter 9500 & Beolab 3000's appeared almost on my doorstep, which I snapped-up. 😕 No regrets!

 

 

You poor soul - hope it is a very small one and you make a full recovery. Wishing you a full and speedy return to full health.

I am the fortunate guy. Sorry jacques.

It was really in good condition despite the fact the beogram doesn't work.

I actually renovate only the top due to the usual traces of usage.

Eddie, you come and see it when you want ;)

I will have a look to the speakers, radio and beogram later, Some work for this winter.

 

the deal was made very quickly around 30 mn after the ad appears. It was on line several days because I came for the pick up some days later.

so don't have any regrets

The old lady has only one word and refused offers around 500 euros after our agreement.

I gave her a very good bottle of wine.

She bought it in Denmark

We are all hoping for quick and full recovery Jacques 🙂

Take care

Jacques , wishing you a speedy recovery.

 

Ovislab - this is completely out of character for you 😁

You need to change the Honda for a white van.
