Led Zep- Houses of the Holy in the cardboard long box. $17.99 and I didn't even have a cdp then. My idea was to buy one or two per pay period so when I finally got a cdp I'd have something to play in it.
The first cdp I owned was a Pioneer PD-???? and it cost me $399 back in 1985-6.

played on some cheap **** all in one boom box.There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin -
Iron Maiden - Live After Death.
