Marantz 2230 Vintage Stereo Receiver (Good)

This isn't the prettiest receiver I've ever sold, but it's not bad. I got it after someone had put a lot of new parts in it (see pictures). I gave it my signature service cleaning inside and out, installed cool burning LED's and polished it up to where it looks pretty good, and it's been fully tested and sounds great. The upper right hand corner had taken a little hit and I did what I could to make it look better. There are a few nicks on the outer edges and a scratch near the word Mar...antz, but all in all it looks pretty good. I originally listed this with non-original faceplate screws, but I found some originals and put them on. The last pictures show the new screws, the other pictures show the old ones.
Returns accepted, so buy with confidence.
Thanks for looking, Ron
 Don’t bother reading this unless youcare about what you’re buying:My listingsare already long winded, but you’re looking to spend a lot of money and shouldknow what you’re paying for.I considermyself a historian. I love this vintage equipment and want to see it saved. Iput a lot of work into what I sell, and make very little profit. If I have tohave these professionally serviced, I probably lose money. I get a lot of thepieces I work on from eBay. A lot are not as described. Misleadingdescriptions, pictures taken to hide flaws and so on. Oh, and by the way, 99%of the time, untested means it doesn’t work.  Out of the hundreds I’ve bought, I can onlyremember one that I felt was “goodto go”. My stuff may seem high priced, but when you get it, it will be “good togo”. I can’t guarantee the longevity of 40 + year old equipment, but I canguarantee that when you get it you won’t need to do anything to it. Before Isend these (very well packed, I might add) they are performing correctly andlook as good as they’re ever going to. With that said, I can’t work miracles.If the face, or knob, or vinyl case is scratched, there’s nothing I can do buttry to make it look better. Also, when I take my pictures I try to highlightflaws, not hide them. I’ve lost sales because of my honesty, but that’s betterthan having an angry customer. I’d alsolike to point out that even though I have 100% positive feedback, only about 1in 10 buyers take the time to leave feedback, but no major complaints yet. Oh, and please leave feedback, but, shouldthere be an issue, do contact me directly before leaving a negative or neutral.In closing, I’d like to point out that I do something that most won’t with this type ofequipment. I offer returns on most of it, although, other than one that was damaged in shipping, noone has returned one yet. So, if you want a piece you’ll be happy with. A piecethat’s “as described”. A piece that’s “good to go” out of the box. Spend alittle more (sometimes less) and buy from me. And if you like this kind ofequipment, please check my other listings. Thanks for reading, Ron
