It works excellent and sounds very good except one issue.
It needs a push to close the tray. May be fixable but I have not opened it to check anything.
No major scratches or dings.
Comes with a remote that is missing back battery cover but works.

$20 + shipping PP gift or USPS MO.

I'll take few pics if there is interest.

Here is a picture from wiki: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0e/Yamaha_CDC-555_front_panel.jpg

Thanks.

    9,999 out of 10,000 older Yamaha CD players (single disc players as well as changers) have a small square (in cross section, that is) rubber belt that hardens and stretches, causing leisurely (or completely dysfunctional) drawer opening/closing. It is easy to access and replace.

    Could be something else up with it... but that is the most likely etiology.

    Cheap blighter that I am, I have a can full of small rubber bands that serve as excellent (albeit ghetto) short-term repairs ;-) -- and replacement belts are readily available from PartsExpress and/or MCM.

    If the seller or the ultimate buyer needs more info - send me a PM.

    EDIT: Here's a cousin thereof in its repaired state FWIW...

    Thanks for info mrh.

    It opens fine but just spins when closing until it gets a gentle push.

    This player is in my bedroom system playing almost every other day.
