The very familiar 3-slot style payphone was first introduced in the 1950’s and remained virtually unchanged until 1965. This appropriately christened “prepay-style pay station” will take you back to the days of old fashioned phone booths and 10-cent phone calls. Believe it or not, its predecessor was a post pay-style phone that actually allowed the caller to place their call and then pay once finished. While you don’t have to pay for your calls with this Crosley replica, you will enjoy the functional coin slots complete with Crosley jingle as your money is deposited into the coin bank in the base of the unit.

Preface: 

I was recently revisiting the January 2010 issue of Game Room magazine, and I noticed (on page 35) a captivating photograph of one gentleman's notion of a "fifties/sixties" retro game room featuring pinball machines; Coca-cola and A & W signs, and a vintage... Read full review »

After reading all of the other reviews, it's hard to understand why this phone got such poor ratings. I can't be the only one out there who thinks highly of this phone. Maybe only the owners of defective units wrote in. Maybe signal quality varies depending on other RF interference in your specific... Read full review »

Worst Phone I Have Ever Owned!!!

8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great design and layout. Easy operation. Long battery life, great range.
Cons Outgoing volume is unacceptably low!!! No fast forward feature in answering machine.
Recommended it? No

I have to yell into the phone in order for people on the other end to hear me.

I can hear them fine.

The phone has been returned 3 times with no improvement. Customer service is a joke. They require you to return the phone in order to receive a new one... two to three weeks. You... Read full review »
