Mirage Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Cool... the controllers will pretty surely need to still be rebuilt anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 The seller should make some makro pics of the 5200 unit......otherwise it´s hard to tell if the system is new or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are pretty high demands of ebay! But, you're right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Was the 5200 box not stapeled shut when new? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Mine had the big staples in it when new. Edited December 1, 2009 by Ransom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be called "almost new", but not NIB. The seller says "this unit has only been plugged in once but has never really been used". Used once is still used in my book. Definitely a nice find though. Edited December 2, 2009 by tep392 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classics Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 5200s in the box in this condition are really not that rare. The 5200 box was so sturdy and huge that systems left in the box are almost always minty clean. Too bad its not REALLY NIB I'd go for that. :-) Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirage Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 That's insane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercylon Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 That's insane! You are right, considering it was really CIB, and the controllers are probably still broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
