The EV-S2500 is the top-of-the-line Hi8 video deck. This is a very rare, working unit purchased from a video repair workshop. The included remote control has a cracked LCD screen. A rare instruction manual is included. I am selling this after completing dubbing from over a dozen tapes. The front operation panel has been replaced with one from a BS3000, but the operation is the same, so there is no problem. Please check the photos for scratches; it's in pretty good condition. This model usually has trouble with Fujifilm tapes getting caught at the entrance, but it has been modified to allow them to enter smoothly. Due to the age of the unit, I cannot provide support for any issues after you confirm receipt.
