undefined review of Polaroid SX-70 Folding Camera Repair (Non-Autofocus Models) image 1 out of 1
Tige P.
My SX-70 stopped ejecting film this year. Retrospekt gave me some trouble shooting tips first but they didn’t work so I sent it in for repair. Their communication about the process was excellent and I got my camera back in less than 3 weeks! Included was a checklist of all the things checked, adjusted, or replaced. I really appreciated that. My camera looks and works like new!

Mia I.
I'm super excited about this Walkman, it seems to work great and I can finally listen to all my old tapes! It obviously is a little finicky, but I could hardly ask more of a machine as old as it is. I'm grateful to Retrospekt for providing this service, and if this one ever gives out on me I know where I'll go for the next!

undefined review of Polaroid SX-70 to 600 Film Conversion Service image 1 out of 2+1
Peter C.
After I had Retrospekt refurbish my SX-70 Model 1, I made the decision to convert it to use 600 film. I was apprehensive at first, since my camera was a unique piece of photographic history. Eventually, the cost and scarcity of good SX-70 film was making it more expensive to use my camera. Converting my camera to 600 film was a great decision and I love how my images turn out!

Christopher V.
I have heard a lot about Retrospekt from other photographers and decided to try their services. The website provided clear descriptions and excellent shipping instructions. My SX-70 Sonar One Step had a broken sensor, and I never thought it could be fixed, but when I got it back, it was like brand new. They checked the camera thoroughly and fixed any issues I didn't know existed. Although the turnaround time was three weeks, I received my camera back a little earlier than expected, which was gr...

Perfect way to store photos! Reasonably priced, and not a wimpy amount of space either. Good hard cover. 5 stars because theres no other product like it. As a tcg player, i wish they were side loading! I would happily pay more for a more secure hold.

I had been eyeing this camera after doing hours of research on Polaroid cameras. I was blown away when I found this website and will absolutely be shopping here again. The camera looks and functions like brand new and the custom packaging is awesome. I'm honored to give this great piece of history a new purpose and home.

This camera is the best camera I have ever owned. The one I purchased brand new just stopped after many years. I was so excited to find out you sell refurbished ones! I plan on sending my old, broken camera to you to be repaired, if possible.

undefined review of Broksonic by Otake CCIRT-3627 5.5 Inch Color TV with MW/FM/SW Radio and Cassette Recorder (New Old Stock) image 1 out of 1
Mark M.
This Broksonic is awesome! Love the total retro 5.5in color CRT display and the tape deck. The system came very clean from Retrospekt and looks totally new! The audio is plenty loud. I barely have to turn it up to hear it at a decent volume. The radio is crisp with FM and MW. Been playing with the SW with an external antenna. I can also record radio directly to tape which I pretty cool. I recommend this system to anyone wanting some old school vibes with some crisp audio. Cool stuff!

Jeff S.
Beautiful work! Dropped my camera during an event and the whole viewfinder assembly broke apart. Only 3 weeks later it was back in my hands in what could easily be mistaken for brand new condition! Even hearing the motor run like new makes me feel like I just time traveled back to the 70's. Can't wait to send the rest of my cameras in for the same TLC. 100% worth it.

Charles F.
Retrospekt is making what are essentially new 680 Cameras, and I mean down to new camera smell it’s that good. Of course everything on the Camera works perfectly, shutter, flash, exposure, auto focus, plus manual controls. I just had to remember, this camera, like all Sonar, or our i2, takes a half press on the shutter button which then allows auto focus and flash positioning. Retrospekt also makes the best Camera bag for the 680 as well as the i2 so don’t waste time looking anywhere else bc the...

undefined review of Sony Walkman WM-FX375 AM/FM Portable Cassette Player image 1 out of 2+1
Aubrey J.
The Cassette player works great. It felt like I just got a new walkman off the production line and it was new from the 2000s. The NR works great and so does the Mega Bass. The Conor Oberst cassette tape that it comes with was recorded poorly. It sounded like a weird audio glitch. The player works great with my other cassette tapes though; great audio quality with those.

Always an excellent experience when buying from Retrospekt. The cassette arrives well packaged. The cassette plays perfectly and in excellent condition. The jewel cassette case is like new. Retrospekt never disappoints. Also, before you buy the cassette the website will list the songs on the cassette and it also provides sample of each song that you can play and hear before you purchase the cassette tape.

great sound and physical quality! i’m not an audiophile or notice any detailed differences in sound quality, but i feel like the audio listening is the same as my $150 headphones! i’ve also received lots of compliments on it especially how bulky and transparent the headphones are :) they are perfect for listening on the laptop or ur CD walkman!! <3

Retrospekt always has fresh film, even when the camera stores or Polaroid is out, and it is a fresh and recent date stamp so there is never a question. Also, the film lifts well and has great color.

This is my first reusable film camera purchase so I’m very excited to see how my journey continues! Shipping was super quick. Setup for the camera was easy to follow, with written instructions and a video tutorial as well. Very beginner friendly so once again, very excited to see how my shots turn out.

I found an SX70 at an estate sale one day and figured I would buy it since it was priced at $20. I knew nothing about using a polaroid and when I got home my Googling led me to Retrospekt.com where I saw the opportunity to have my new camera cleaned and tuned up. I sent my camera off to have it serviced and when it was returned to me I had my film ready to load and I was eager to start capturing images. Thank you for resetting my camera to its original glory and for helping me start off my new h...

Marlon A.
This cassette player is awesome. I love the look and how it sounds. I'm a cassette player novice, so are there better sounding players out there maybe. But I think this is definitely worth the price. I've been having trouble sleeping lately due in part to phone use. Now I've been able to put my phone away from the bed and relax bumping some beats (minus the screen). Great buy!

Erika R.
I am happy beyond my expectations, and they were high going in. This beautiful camera came perfectly as pictured, wrapped up carefully and came with a few stickers extra which was a nice treat. It also arrived extremely quickly (I’m in Canada). Yes, as other Canadians have mentioned shipping and duties are very pricey but the product is really great. I tried a few photos and the camera works really well. Based on this experience I would recommend this product/Retrospekt 600 Polaroid cameras.

It is gorgeous and works well. Only small thing is that the pink has hints of purple in it, I think, not so much the perfect strawberry shade I had envisioned, but it is still such a cute camera. I love mine :)

Absolutely stunned by this camera! My first foray into photography is with this Polaroid from Retrospekt. The quality is incredible and it’s fully functional. Exactly as advertised. Works like a charm. I’m so pleased with this camera and Retrospekt as a company. Fast shipping. Cool goodies included! Arrived in snug packaging. I’ll definitely be ordering more products from them in the future!

It's a great pouch! The colored strap is really vibrant and the patches on them are really sick! I also love having a pouch specifically for my point and shoots. Can't wait to take this around with me.

Hazel C.
Love love love this Polaroid Camera. Straightforward and easy to follow through. Of course pics are gonna be blurry because that's the retro appeal. So my expectations were such. It took some struggle to put in the film but if I push enough I was able to put it in. Taking photos is straightforward but if you watch videos online you'd be able to master it.

Didn’t want to waste money on something cheap that would likely be of poor quality, so I took a chance on this product. I love the transparent design. I unfortunately overestimated the headphone length, and caused a moderate fall from my desk to my laminate floor shortly after unboxing :( </3. But on the bright side, my new cassette player is unscathed. Looking forward to buying more tapes and using it on the regular. I only wish it had a belt clip, but I’ll survive. Keep up the great work Retro...

I recently purchased a refurbished Walkman from Retrospekt, and I must say, it's a trip down memory lane that's worth every penny. Quality Assurance: Retrospekt goes the extra mile in ensuring their refurbished vintage Walkmans work flawlessly. Despite the relatively higher cost, the meticulous refurbishing process justifies the price. Attention to Detail: The inclusion of batteries and the impeccable packaging in a neat box showcase the company's commitment to customer satisfaction. The add...

I recently purchased the Broksonic CTGV-4590TCT TV from Retrospekt, and I must say, it's been an absolute delight. As an avid retro gamer, finding the perfect display for my gaming setup was crucial, and Retrospekt delivered beyond expectations. First and foremost, let's talk about the shipping process. Retrospekt didn't waste any time getting my order out the door. I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly the TV arrived at my doorstep, securely packaged and ready to go. This level of efficien...

Best compulsive buy yet. It really just is a unique device you can add to your home. The color is vibrantly yellow and its so compact that it fits practically anywhere. I've tried many vinyls and the sound is fabulous. Worth it! :] I almost forgot to remove the screw before using it the second time and almost broke it. Oop.

Took a chance on these as replacements for my fiancée’s Sanyo M-G41 headphones (Retrospekt has a compatibility list but her device wasn’t on there), turns out they’re a perfect fit! In my opinion, the orange looks even better than the model’s original black look. But they have the black ones if you prefer that OG look. Anyway, highly recommend Retrospekt. Cheers!

Honestly for the price I don't think I could recommend this enough. Affordable, beautiful vintage design. Fits light on the ears, and the fact it's a RETROSPEKT collab is so great since you get to feel unique. Also comes with fun stickers in the box. Sound quality is better than you'd expect. Sure there's some bleed, but that's true for any light-fit on ear headphones. These have a great soundstage and balanced sound. Great sound and great value from a respected audio company.

Really nicely made. My Polaroid 600 and an extra pack of film fit perfectly inside. Took this with me on a camping trip and it held up great! Cushy and sturdy, but doesn't take up a ton of room in a trunk and is lightweight enough to carry along with other items. Got so many compliments from fellow Peanuts fans, too. :)

It’s amazing and super cute! It’s aesthetically pleasing and the stitching came out pretty good! Only gripe with it is that I kinda expected it to be a bit bigger than what it seemed in the photos, but as long as my Polaroid now Gen 2 camera then I’m all for it! Amazing product!

I was looking for a new cassette player (I use the term Walkman for everything 😁) because my older Walkmans are going to need repairs soon. I think I want to sell them while they still work (I also have the original boxes). So I did a lot of research and got the Retrospekt player for the price. There are a lot of people out there that disparage new Walkmans on YouTube but this one comes with earphones, another reason why I purchased. The earphones are awesome in my opinion and end I up buying a ...

I love my Sony Walkman from Retrospekt! After trying out a “modern” player and being disappointed (it broke in various ways after just a few months), I wanted to try a refurbished one. And I’m a happy they! It only has minor scratches and plays like a dream. Buttons are snappy and sound is awesome. Thank you, Retrospekt!

AMAZING SERVICE! Retro cameras and electronics are a passion of mine, and as an "80s kid" I was naturally drawn to Retrospekt. I have a Polaroid 600 Impulse autofocus, which has been capturing local memories for a LONG time, and when the camera started to show signs of needing work, I took advantage of Retrospekt's repair services. I cannot say enough good things. I don't write a lot of reviews, and part of me is afraid this review will be seen as less than genuine, because it is so positi...
