Non USB single din stereos

[junkyardjeff]

I found a bunch in the house and garage that are taking up space and I will never use so are these even worth dealing with and do anyone even look for them. The local recycling center takes electronics and these might be going there next weekend and most probably still work but I like Bluetooth now.

If you're looking to declutter, consider donating or recycling items that you no longer use. Local charities or electronics recycling centers are good options.

I have some friends interested in a couple but the rest can go to the thrift store since most I know are good just outdated instead of getting scrapped at the recycling center.

Flagship head units from the past are still sought after,
Without knowing the model numbers it's hard to say if you have anything worth holding on too.

If you decide to donate you could offer them for cost of shipping in the classifieds, Someone might have a use for them.

Unfortunately none are very special,one might be a JVC HD unit and I could post some pics.

I try to give away anything that someone might find useful before recycling.
I start "local" (Facebook), then the thrifts (they only get fully-working, complete goods).

Doesn't hurt even donating the non-working stuff (unless trying to get money for it at a recycle scrap center). I use to love finding broken stuff to fix at thrift stores. Example, one time got a JBL Bluetooth speaker that retailed around $200+, was like $10 as I'm assuming nobody could get it to pair with a phone, was missing the pairing button, BUT the pair button was there, just not the logo (came unglued or broke off) to see where to press, worked perfect if you knew where to press on the grill cloth. Another time, a Bose table top radio for like $9, had cold solder joints on a connector so it was dead, worked great after repair (these sold on ebay for $150 working, so can see where $9 is a good deal for one if you can repair it). Lots of other stuff I can't remember. Home stereo receivers, car audio, etc. This kind of stuff helped make me extra cash, or got me a bargain on stuff I could use, always hoped to find some cool non working items. The broken or incomplete stuff is sometimes the only stuff you can get cheap. It's sad when repairable stuff gets sent to a recycle center when there are people that like to tinker or know how to repair.

I had a big stack of old single din head units at my last yard sales a few years ago, I don't think a single person looked through that box / storage tub they were in. Was all older basic Pioneer, Sony, JVC, Kenwood.

I am starting to collect vintage shaft stereos to put in older vehicles but those older newer stereos are kind of useless to me since I need Bluetooth now.
