I marked it as new because it has never been sold. I sold radios at jukebox shows I did years ago. This is one of the radios we sold that I kept for myself. I am the original owner and the radio was displayed at a few shows but always returned to the box. It has been sitting in the back bedroom for years. Pet, smoke, and kid free home. The radio works on all functions including the cassette. Box is in very nice condition. Radio will be double boxed.
