Adding this your watchlist and/or your shopping cart in hopes of getting a significant price reduction a few weeks later WILL NOT WORK! I do have plenty of less expensive models for sale on here as well! For those who think the price might be a little too high, there is a saying I live by that goes “You Get What You Pay For”! Here, you are getting a deck that actually is cleaned, adjusted, rigorously tested, and ready to use out of the box. If you’re looking for a deck that is ready to use and we’ll get any tape transfers or whatever recording job that you may have done, then you’ve come to the right place! Rather than get into long-winded descriptions, I’m going to try to keep this short and straight to the point. I do, however, give a 100% guarantee that it will arrive working as described in the listing. You will see I have plenty of happy customers! All decks are cleaned, adjusted, serviced, and rigorously tested before they are listed to ensure they work properly. I have attempted to describe, as accurately as possible the description of every tape deck, including the cosmetic issues and any other issues that I may find and take plenty of clear pictures so you see exactly what you get. Unfortunately, several of them have arrived in worse condition than they originally left here in e. However, if an issue does arise, or you need assistance, I will help out in anyway that I can!
