Having a clear out and had liberated a Blaupunkt cd changer from my loft. Think it came out of a ‘96 Merc E320 Coupe I once owned.

Do these things have any value any more or is it a just an obsolete item of its time and designed for the recycling pile? I have loads of cds, which I do listen to, but as my son keeps telling me, I’m a dinosaur!

Funnily enough I’ve got a similar dilemma - I’ve a brand new Blaupubkt “Compact Drive” still boxed. Basically a CF card thing that substitutes for the changer.

Totally obsolete and worth nothing, in my opinion.

Not even worth listing for free, given the hassle you will get from people asking "will it fit such and such car/ does it fit my Sony headunit/ does it have bluetooth etc".

I had a CLK 320 for about 6 months in 2015, the CD changer was kaput.

May be worth sticking on eBay for 99p plus postage, you may get interest. It depends on the connection lead as to whether it's compatible with anything other than a Blaupunkt head unit.

I have a couple of CD head units in a cupbord, sometimes old cars have a hole where the stereo should be. Most stuff for the last 15 years + is bespoke.
