GPX PC332B Portable CD Player with Anti-Skip Protection, FM Radio and Stereo Earbuds - Black

Real good discman

This is a replacement for one I had for over 10 years. It seems to be built well and the sound is ok.

The item was packaged poorly. It was in a plastic bag which was inside of a plastic "envelope". So, no effective padding to prevent damage while shipping. I also must add that I had ordered a used model, so that I could save a few bucks....my mistake. The only feature that functioned was the FM radio, although the lcd screen showed nothing, so I had to blindly scan the frequency. I tested the cd player with a disc, and when I would push the play button an odd buzzing sound would emit through my earbuds....nothing else. The cd player would not register any button input. Also this model has an odd design, the back of the cd player, at the hinge, has an open space where anything can get in. So definitely not something to take to the beach. Buy a new model and hopefully you have better luck.

Update: my sister dropped this twice. The first drop the spring for the lid to open on its own, popped out - but no biggie - everything still worked fine. It fell off a work table when someone moved her stuff out of the way not realizing they were pushing her player too. The 2nd time it fell, the little hook of the latch on the door broke off. I tried to fix it, being it wasn't covered in the warranty, but because of the type of plastic it is it wouldn't adhere back together. Either that or there were minute pieces missing. I started looking for another one - but this seems to be the only brand, that has anti-skip, drop, and other great features for a person who seems to be hard on her electronics. However the price jumped up tremendously since we had last bought it. Plus one of the battery springs had corroded & we're not sure why that happened. Really puzzling there being the batteries weren't corroded or any other parts.Recently (March 2023),i was looking at them again and saw that the price had been reduced - most likely because the company has a newer model now. But then I saw that Amazon warehouse was selling or rather reselling this at a lower price, "claiming" that the product was like new - in working condition. That the packaging may be open. So being I have had good results previously with products being remanufactured or fixed/repaired for reselling I took the chance... However, I cannot recommend Amazon's employees for thoroughly checking a product to see if it actually works as it should.The product turns on, the CD mechanism appears to work - but we couldn't find my sister's cds at the time to see if it actually plays. The radio switch worked - However... & this is a BIG however, it wouldn't tune to other stations. It was literally stuck on one station.I ended up removing the radio board from the newer unit & replacing it with the one my sister had in hers. Due to my experience with building & fixing computers, I was able to finally give her a working product. At least until we find her little case of CDs.Shame on Amazon's employees for not thoroughly checking this player. I feel they owe me a refund, or owe me for actually fixing what they should have! Or as my parents said - hire me to thoroughly check & fix these little personal CD & FM radio players! 😂My sister was looking for a cd player that she could use at home with her headphones. She has a boom box that has one but the outlet does not work on it and she does not have much space on her desk. This was the perfect answer. She loves it as it works well and plays all her Discs with music. The only reason there are 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because the batteries don't last very long, and it's not like she uses it hours on end. So she constantly needs batteries. If they could make it use less energy that would give 5 stars. The price was affordable for myself, and I am hoping that isn't the reason for battery consumption.

The media could not be loaded. For us dinosaurs lol... so my sister wanted a cd player with all the fixings lol... good radio reception... comes with headphones but she said they hurt... i wish it had theadaptor plug in... doesnt skip at all even with older used cds... color is odd but different and easier to see.. buttons are great.. features are a plus too.. she loves it.. shipped fast.. uses it every day! Thanks!

The radio station numbers not showing but you do hear people talking in every radio station but do not see station number on thr screen

This CD player ROCKS! Great sound and easy to use functions. Easy 5 Stars!

The sound is great. I'm an older lady, and I always forget something. It's nice to know that I don't have to stop listening to go get what I forgot. Now, what was it that I forgot? Just kidding 😃. Great product. The Bluetooth connection is good. Haven't had any problems with it skipping. So easy to use, and the size is perfect. I can hook it to my belt loop or drop it in my hobo bag.(purse) It looks good however you choose to use it. I love it .Thank you 👍
