Thank you for the fast response. I wasn't actually thinking it was worth anything monetarily, but more as a collectible item. Particularly when it won't play a CD!
I bought the unit brand new for about $1200. It was a stupid purchase at the time, as I was an Ensign in the Navy and not making very much money, but I just had to have it! The player worked perfectly for years. I used it up until about 1990 when I moved onto a laserdisc/cd combo player. It was about that time that CD's would start skipping, but it would at least play. Something has changed since it's been in my current attic since I bought the house in 1994.
I don't want to just throw it away if somebody could get it working and would enjoy owning it. It is a unique unit, no doubt.
