489.0. "cd player $129.99" by AIMHI::GINSBERG () Fri Oct 10 1986 17:20

                    <CD prices slashed>
    
    Just saw an ad from Fayad's appliance on Rte 101-A in Nashua. They
    are advertizing a fisher AD823 CD player for $129.95. I own one
    of these models and have been very satisfied. I don't know how long
    the sale is in effect, probably through next week.
    
    They also sell discs for $13.99

489.1Player market softening? Changers next?EUCLID::PAULHUSMon Oct 13 1986 13:349
    I hope this signifies that the market for cd players is becomming
    saturated, because this will probably mean that the next generation
    of cd players (really 'changers') will hit the market soon.  I've
    been told that the 50 disc changer from Technics, the SL-P15 was
    shelved because it represented too much of an advance for the time
    frame [last year], but we can expect it and it's brothers as soon
    as the market softens. We seem to be working up towards it with
    the 6-disc Pioneer, and now the 10-disc Sony.  Still holding out,
    and listening to a D-5... - Chris
489.2Mine was cheap-cheapGALACH::MARTENSBert MartensSun Oct 26 1986 06:1710
    I just bought a technics personal portable from a local discount
    store as a close out, the last one without battery pack. The
    discount price 116.00, I priced the same unit the day before
    and was quoted 179.95 w/o battery pack. Now out to buy the battery
    pack. The unit works fine, as it was only on the counter for 1 day
    before I found it. 
    Now on to the BIG money---buying disks.....
