I buy everything repairable and if it’s not repairable I don’t buy at all. If 100 years old player repairable and brand new not, than I'll buy 100 years old repairable player.

If you really need a CDP and can't wait, go for something new(er) and easily repairable (or disposable) and slowly save your money for a better one down the road. If I had a crystal ball and could foresee the demise of CD players in the next few years, then I'd say go and buy a new one on credit. All the best, Nonoise
