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, the included 8mm tape cannot be played) will be addressed. The VHS 3x mode and 8mm LP mode are not covered by the warranty. ● Please check the operation with the included 8mm tape. If the 8mm tape is in poor condition, playback may not be possible (noise, tape tangling, 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 after playback. 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 leave comments. ● Operation has been confirmed in the current state, but malfunctions may occur. ● Bidding from Hokkaido and Okinawa is not allowed. This is because initial defect support cannot be provided due to long transportation times. ● Please provide a receipt evaluation of my listed items within 3 days of the purchased item's arrival.
