I make a point of paying for professional care packing and shipping. I will do my very best to make sure your vintage audio equipment will arrive safely.This one is for serious collectors of high-end vintage audio equipment who share my excitement and knowledge that “they don...'t build them like they used too”. This has been used sparingly over its life by only one original owner. This sat in a protected rack in a closed closet for 25+ years. The original owner turned it on every so often to keep all the moving parts working. However, he rarely played it.I have personally tested this and everything seems to work. That tape reversing mechanism is just SO COOL! I am not a service technician. I do not know if it is even needed, but I would recommend because of its age, that the new owner take this in for cleaning and light servicing. Any vintage collector knows this. I have not had the deck serviced and I have priced it much lower to reflect that fact. Please know I am selling this as, “as is”. I recommend the Nakamichi service guru Willy Hermann Services he is the most affordable and simply the best with these decks.There are very few cosmetic issues. Please be aware that the camera does not show little blemishes and tiny scratches. Even so, the cabinet is in great shape. Thank you for checking out my listing and please look for more vintage Nakamichi product listed by me.
