I bought this along with a number of other electronic items at a local sale.  I put new batteries in it and it did power on just like it should.

Please look at the photos for more details.  There is a tiny crack in the housing that can be seen in the photos.  It doesn't affect the function at all.

Thanks so much for Looking and Please take the time to look at the other items I have posted for sale, I have something for everyone!!!!
