If you happen to be in the market for 400 vintage boomboxes, then you’ll be sorry you missed this. Craig Kenton, a New Zealander who’s collected boomboxes for 15 years, put his entire collection up for auction, and it’s huge.

Kenton started the bid at $NZ20,000 ($19,000) but says he could easily just sell the top 20 units for that much, according to Stuff. Although he doesn’t list all 400 units in the lot, he certainly has some prime kit. Like these beauties:
