1. Radio Shack
The 1970 catalogue. -
2. Portable Stereos
Why buy a big bulky radio, when these portable versions are decently cheaper? -
3. Portable Radios
All of these pages bring fantastic deals. -
4. MC-500 Compact
This stereo looks like it has the same features, at a better price. -
5. Everything
Alright, this might be one of the most expensive items in the catalogue, but if you need a full sound system, here it is. Everything you'll ever need. That's over $5,000 in today's money. -
6. Stereo Amplifier
The lowest priced in the catalogue. -
7. Turntables
With the vinyl craze the way it is, these low priced players could make a good long term investment. And that '70s quality will last a lifetime. -
8. Headphones
Nice headphones for under $8? Even adjusted for inflation, I'll take it. -
9. FUTURA
Alright, it might not be the best deal here, but it sure looks cool. -
10. Speakers
As far as speakers go, these two pages seemed to have the cheapest options. -
11. Walkie Talkies
Who doesn't love walkie talkies? In the days before cell phones, this crop is a steal. -
12. Tape Recorders
These recorders appeared to offer the best price for the quality. -
13. Portable Tape Recorders
And why not buy cheaper, portable ones? -
14. Electric Piano
We don't recommend the binoculars, but those electric pianos were always fantastic. -
15. Antennas
A relic of a different era, these seem like good deals. -
16. Tools
Good prices. Our favorite is the pocket knife for under $2. -
17. talkingenuity
Ok, we don't actually recommend this product, but we do recommend how cool this guy thinks he is. -
18. Phones
Fully functional phones for around $10? That sounds good to me.
