It is in very good condition albeit with scuffs, and marks nicks . Wooden panels are in fairly good condition with some wear as shown. Refer to pics. It has been tested, serviced, calibrated and the heads were cleaned and demagnetized for the best sound ever. The mic inputs were tested and they work as well as the other inputs. The pots and switches were sprayed and the metal parts were lubed as well. Both channels are clear and superb sounding as well. The belts and caps were checked and they’re good. All the functions work and the VU Meters light up and jump like they are supposed to. The sound when recording at 3 3/4 IPS is very clear and better and wider sounding than the Source recording from, depending on the type of tape used and better at 7 1/2 IPS (with speed sleeve) . The heads are also in very good shape which is obviously why the quality is awesome as well. Pictured reels , are my personal set for testing, for demonstration purposes only and NOT INCLUDED. Price is $599.99. **NOTE That adding this to your watch, list or your shopping cart, which I receive e-mail notifications for in hopes of getting significant price reduction a few weeks later WILL NOT WORK!**Customers have the option of making payments with Paypal Credit, and Paypal Pay In 4 (all through eBay) so they do not have to pay all at once. I have been restoring and selling Reel to Reel tape decks for nearly 20 years. As a seller of these decks, I am a firm believer in YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Each deck is priced accordingly based on the quality, the cosmetics, how much I’ve sold these for in the past; how much these have sold for elsewhere and the amount of time and money invested in cleaning, refurbishing and testing it to ensure it arrives to its new buyer working like its supposed to. To be clear, I am more than willing to listen to reasonable offers and I will work with you in anyway that I can on pricing! But at the same time, I’m not selling this deck for cheap! If this is not within your price range, or you can’t afford it, you’re only other option at this point is to RESPECTFULLY PASS THIS ONE BY and purchase a cheaper deck elsewhere. Honestly, not trying to be rude in anyway shape or form but I feel like I need to get this out there since still there are people who don’t get it when it comes to labor-intensive process of restoring this type of deck and the pricing. this deck is priced accordingly based on the quality and the amount of time spent testing it, as well as the cosmetics.This deck is cross posted on Reverb.com under my DJZ Vintage Audio!

This is also due to several buyers on here who were unwilling to go along with my necessary terms and conditions, which they agreed to when they made the purchase including sending a message through the eBay Member to Member messaging system and allowing me a chance to try to rectify the problem instead of opening an eBay Return Request and consequently disrupting my workflow. I am on here mostly just to sell parts from reel to reel tape Decks that were deemed unfixable. I have been repairing and selling Reel to reel tape Decks for 18 years, I’ve gotten business from all over the world, have plenty of happy customers including those who worked with me anytime issues came up, and my stellar selling record on eBay And Reverb speaks for itself, So if there’s any doubt whatsoever about my honesty and integrity please check both feedback records under DJZ Vintage Audio! This is my livelihood and I am very much in this for the long haul!Please keep in mind that each deck is priced accordingly due to the quality and the amount of time and money invested in cleaning, refurbishing and testing it to ensure it arrives to its new buyer working like its supposed to. The price also includes packing, shipping and insurance costs as well! Please take into consideration that very similar or other comparable model decks are SKYROCKETING in price, including those listed in for parts or not working condition or are untested or partially tested and may or may not even be in working condition. NOTE that adding this to your watchlist or your shopping cart in hopes of getting a significant price reduction a few weeks later WILL NOT WORK! Any customer may purchase a different deck if they feel this one is too expensive or not in their price range. any listings that are still up after 21 days without a sale WILL BE CANCELED AND RENEWED.I do sincerely apologize for this, but although I do have plenty of great buyers who are understanding about the challenges of restoring these tape decks, rigorously testing them; and the amount of time and money that is invested as well into restoring them, there are still several out there who just do not know any better. If youre on a budget or you do not agree with the price , then you should purchase a different deck that is more suited to your price range! But if youre looking for one that works and gets the job done whether it’s recording or tape transfers, then you’ve come to the right place! Thank you for your understanding Local pickup is strongly recommended for those who are not very far from Central NC to save on shipping costs! Please note all local pickups are cash only! TERMS AND CONDITIONS UPDATED JAN 2023 (PLEASE READ BEFORE PROCEEDING): SHIPPING AND WARRANTY: The shipping is $85 in the lower 48 states which ALSO includes secure packing. This is a HEAVY ONE! Most boxes these decks originally come in are not suitable for reshipment and are therefore immediately discarded. This deck will be packed with large bubble wrap, dense insulated foam blocks on all sides and a new box so it arrives in one piece. In some cases, these decks are Double boxed. I make NO money whatsoever off the shipping costs (in fact, in some cases I SPEND MORE on shipping costs depending on the weight and the location of where the deck is going)! Pictures of each packing job will be taken as well and may be sent to the buyer as proof that the deck was packed properly when it left here. A LOT of money is invested in this packing material and unlike some sellers who don’t seem to care that an improperly packed deck results in a broken knob, spindle, or other damages, I spend at least a 1/2 hour packing each of these decks! Shipping insurance is also added to cover both myself and the buyer in the event something should happen during shipment rendering the deck inoperable. In the event an insurance claim needs to be filed, DO NOT discard the packing material and box! Most decks are shipped out within 24 to 48 hours when the payment clears. Please keep in mind, in some cases they may take up to 72 hours to ship out during my busy times. Also note once the deck leaves here, I have no control over how fast it gets to the buyer!A Pre shipment video of each deck operating properly will be filmed the day it ships out and it may be sent to the buyer at anytime. The buyer agrees to accept this as proof that the deck left my place in working condition (VERY few sellers actually do this for their buyers). Due to the age and vintage nature of these decks, there is no further warranty or guarantee implied, nor expressed other than the 7 day promise given as a courtesy it will arrive working as described in the listing (which begins the day the item is delivered). After the time period expires, the sale becomes final. If the buyer suspects a problem with their unit after receiving it which cannot be resolved with my assistance, they MUST Be willing to have it taken or sent somewhere for a repair estimate, as there are no suitable repair shops around here (which I will cover the costs for). This fully eliminates all uncertainty as to whether the unit may have been tampered with or misused.If in any case the buyer chooses to return the deck for a refund, the buyer agrees that I require up to 3 calendar days after the returned deck is received to issue that refund. Refunds will be MINUS the shipping costs. A 15% restocking fee will apply on returns for the following reasons:Buyer changes their mind Buyer can’t afford the deck The deck was working as described but did not meet the buyer’s expectations No fault is found with the deck after testing it out (in this case, a new video will be filmed showing the deck functioning properly)Any other general reason not related to non functionality IMPORTANT: If a buyer suspects a problem with their deck after getting it, THEY MUST Send me a member to member message through eBay and allow me to chance to try to rectify the problem. DO NOT OPEN A RETURN REQUEST! Doing so creates a disruption to my shipping labels for other shipments awaiting my attention and I consider it an act of hostility, as most issues are resolved just by communicating. Documentation of the issues may be requested such as a video or written repair estimates so I know how to proceed from there: Any buyer who opens an eBay Return Request without first contacting me and allowing me to try to resolve the issue will be considered a risk to my business in the future!OTHER POLICIES:I DO NOT offer repair services to the public due to my heavy workload and because I am not set up to take in other peoples units for repair, aside from the fact not every unit is guaranteed to be fixable. I also DO NOT accept trades at this time.My terms and conditions are necessary to ensure a smooth and trouble free experience for both myself and the buyer. However, if they cannot be readily agreed to ,then you should purchase a different tape deck elsewhere and save both of us future hassles.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. DJZ Vintage Audio is a “one and done“ shop! Any last minute adjustments or repairs may be made after final testing and before shipment to ensure maximum performance of the deck when the buyer gets it! Please keep in mind that most of these decks are 40+ years old and therefore may contain cosmetic flaws including, scuffs, marks, nicks, scratches and dings from age, handling, servicing, and past use.
