I purchased this in the original box, was told it worked perfectly, and it didn't. I sent it to my buddy Mike in Massachusetts, All Things Rockman, and had him service and go through it, including a new battery door to go on the back, and a new power supply- this Rockman has one that goes in the side. Not sure of year or version, but definitely from way back when. It is in the original box, no headphones, and I have not tried it with batteries, but Mike gave it a clean bill of health. I love these things, when they were on the market I couldn't afford one. Today I over compensate. Thanks for looking!
