So, all looks well so far guys.
Is Monday a bank holiday over there as well?
I'm guessing not, unless the seller hasn't realised it's a bank holiday.

Far too many radio's to list here. But I do own a legal one...
Mine arrived in the post this morning NOS as listed. Definitely happy with my purchase.
There appears to be a four digit serial number on the back page of the manual (check pictures below). It would be interesting to see if the numbers are sequential, so anyone else who bought one post your number!

I've seen that sort of code before and it's usually a date code. Makes sense given the vintage of the mic. Anyway, we'll soon find out when (if) mine turns up!

So almost exactly 37 years old Sammy. I always send a courtesy message to sellers when goods arrive, but I'll ask them where they got them from. Initially there were 10 when I first spotted the listing, 7 by the time I'd posted a link on here. Then I bought one, so 6 left. Dom bought one, down to 5. Moments later all sold.
I'm wondering if they came in stock boxes of 10 units per box. I'll post any findings from the seller, if they still have it that outer transport box would be worth a couple of pence to a collector.

The seller bought these from a guy who was clearing out his garage. Shame he didn't have the radio's to go with them
They must have been stored well though. No sign of damp or water damage to the box and the mic and leaflet are pristine. Sadly I don't have a battery that will fit so off to eBay I go.

I gave one of these mics to my auld mucker night prowler along with a supply of proper batteries that i got on the bay, Not button batteries stacked together, So they're still available, Can't mind what type they were, But i'm sure rich can enlighten you,
