Release Date: October 2001 Ships on the same day or within 24 hours. The gum batteries I have have been tested and are working. Comes with the original remote control and original earphones. Extra gum batteries are also included. The exterior looks gold in the photos, but it has a pinkish hue, making it pink gold. Although it's been over 20 years since it was made, While there are some minor scratches, there are no noticeable scratches or stains, and the condition is good for its age. However, please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about future malfunctions or the current exterior scratches, as this is a used item. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly sensitive to such things. I have other items for sale as well, so #Poipoi'sItems You can view them by TAP or clicking on the hashtag. (You can see a list.) Bulk purchases are welcome. If you purchase with other items, you will receive a 300 yen discount on the second item, regardless of what it is. I have a lot of items for sale, so If you are looking for something similar, #Poipoi'sMusic Please take a look. Thank you. #sony #MDPlayer #HeiseiRetro
