I meant to say, yashica.

OK, I have had sitting around for ten years a Yashica P810, magnetic and optical sound, which I have never been able to work on and I have come to the conclusion that I never will.

I'm going to let it go for 20.00 dollars, minus postage, which I will make as reasonable as possible.

The condition of the projector ...

The projector powers up, lights up, but the motor doesn't turn. It has its belts just fine and its probably an easy fix. This projector has it's original plastic cover, but it does not have it's original box. All the parts are there, nothing missing (though it will need a lamp, I'm not sure as to which one it'll use, perhaps ESC?

If it doesn't sell on here, I'll take some photo's and put it up on ebay. The outside condition of the projector is very good, not all banged or scratched up ... it just has to be considered a "fixer-upper"

If interested, please e-mail me at CXOSIR1@outlook.com

Best wishes

OSI

Here is a link to the auction ...

It really is a lovely looking projector, but I sincerely will never get around to an attempt to get it to run. I'd rather someone who knows these projectors gets it and then, of course, they'll have a great projector for a bargain price.

OSI, I'm surprised your not keeping it! Is it worth it? The pictures look real nice!
