Well, I didn't get it; not due to price, but due to the fact that I had to work late and didn't get to place a second last-minute bid as I usually do. Hopefully, more will surface and I can find the S607 or S606 model. I let that one 606 get away and regret it; if I get it, my personal NIB 608 will go up for sale to replace it.

I was bidding on that 685, but I wasn't going to spend more than $50.00 on one that they couldn't even verify the display worked on. Naturally, I lost out on it by a dollar...

I was bidding on that 685, You can always buy the service manual Well maybe not always but this is the same seller in previous threads "reedsolio" who seems to have plenty of service manuals. Lots of Craig stuff but no S601 in this recent listing. Here's the S685 Buy It Now $8.98 ... Craig-Service-Manual-S685-8-Track-Tape-Player-Radio-Original-Repair-/----- Here's an item you can use as trivia with family and friends ... - Along with the Craig S603 8-track player there was also the S603A. Ha, well, I did not know that Same seller, same price ... S603 / S603A Service Manual

The service manual is all well and good, but the issue is finding parts. If the pick-up has to be replaced or worse, the flexible ribbon circuit that runs to the digital display. Or, if the display is bad, then you have to buy another unit and hope it works with the other.
The hardest thing about fixing these things is that there's no parts store that you can just pick up whatever you want from.

Like factory knobs. I'm not taking too much time actively searching, but I still have 2 s608's with no knobs! Haha

^ Ad says, "This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing." So I'd check twice a day for the re-list, if there's a Buy It Now and it's low, then jump on it.

I've got a line on a 608 and, if it pans out, I'll list it here.
