I Can't Believe Something Is Still Making One of These Gadgets!

Most people haven't seen one of these in dozens of years! Or maybe ever! I thought it might be hard to find a manufacturer who still makes a cassette player, but I never dreamed someone was still making --------fanfare ----------- an 8 track player! Here's the description from Heartland America and a link where you can buy it, should you really want one:

A hard-to-find 8 track player for a fraction of what others charge! You see 8 track tapes in antique stores, pawn shops and second hand stores. You probably have a box of them in your attic too. Now you can enjoy them all over again with this vintage 8-track player. Ultra portable and ready to go, it features track indicator lights, AM/FM tuner, slide volume and tone controls, earphone jack and 3-way power with automatic AC/DC switching. Comes with AC and 12V DC adapters and shoulder strap. 6 'C' batteries not incl. 7-3/4" x 9" x 3-3/4". 1-year limited warranty. The cost at Heartland America is $80.99. Amazon sells the same unit by for about $10 more.
