Disassembled and cleaned. There are scratches and dirt that do not affect use. Two-screen display is OK. ● Initial defects (power does not turn on, included 8mm tape cannot be played) will be addressed. The stop button on the outside of the front panel and inside the button does not respond. Please use the substitute remote control for operation. ● Please check the operation with the included 8mm tape. If the 8mm tape is in poor condition, playback may not be possible (noise, tape entanglement, condensation, etc.). If the included 8mm tape can be played, the transaction will be considered complete. Playback of your own tapes is at your own risk. ● Ideal for playing your Hi-8 and VHS tapes, and for dubbing to DVD, Blu-ray, HDD, etc. ● If you have SONY ME type tapes, the heads will get dirty quickly when played. It is better not to play them. MP type tapes are not a problem. ● Price negotiations are not possible. ● Please refrain from purchasing if you are a new user, have few ratings, or cannot comment. ● Although the operation has been confirmed in its current state, it is a used item, so there is a possibility of malfunctions due to transport vibration. Please understand. ● I request that you provide a receipt evaluation of my listed items within 3 days of the purchased item's arrival. ● Bidding from Hokkaido and Okinawa residents is not allowed.
