But extenuating circumstances have forced me to return on a part-time basis. As a result, I am laying out my boundaries and my terms and conditions very clearly: Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will I tolerate any kind of abusive or aggressive behavior, regardless of why you may feel it is justified! If you treat me with respect, I will treat you with respect, and I will go to the ends of the Earth to help resolve any kind of issues that come up! You MUST contact me through eBay member to member messages if an issue comes up so I can try to help rectify it. DO NOT Open an eBay Return Request! The shipping costs of each item are set accordingly based on the weight and the cost of packing material, needed to ensure it arrives in one piece. ALL PACKAGES ARE INSURED for the full amount, so if there is any kind of damage despite the best packing, YOU MUST send me pictures through eBay member to member messages so I can file a claim with the carrier and get you reimbursed! Local Pickup is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED if you are located within 100 miles of ZIP Code, 27205. Not only will you save on the cost of shipping, but you will have the opportunity to check out the deck before you leave with her to make sure everything works. Furthermore, this fully eliminates all uncertainty as to whether it will get to the buyer safely when picked up in person. NOTE That all local pick up transactions are CASH ONLY! Preshipment video tutorials of each tape deck sold, as well as pictures of the packing will be sent to the buyer. The buyer agrees to accept this as proof the tape deck left my place working and packed properly. NOTE TO WATCHERS: ALL tape decks are priced accordingly based on the amount of time money and labor invested in testing and restoring them, as well as cosmetics, flaws, and how much I’ve sold in for in the past. To be clear, I will listen to all reasonable offers if you are genuinely interested. Adding this to your watchlist in hopes of getting a significant price reduction several weeks later WILL NOT WORK! For those who are on a budget, looking for a deck “for cheap” or insist on a significant price reduction, my advice is please to continue your search for a deck. How much a buyer is ultimately willing to spend on a tape deck is by THEIR decree, not mine. Please keep in mind that, regardless of all the time labor, and money invested into these tapedecks to ensure they work like they should when they arrive, they are DECADES OLD electronics, so there is never a guarantee they will not develop problems in the distant future. I make no warranty or guarantee other than the promise they will arrive working as described in the listing. The selling environment has changed significantly since I first began 20 years ago and Unfortunately, you just never know what someone has in mind when they do stupid stuff like ghosting people after sending inquiries, lowballing them, being abusive over issues that are beyond the sellers control (including leaving unjust feedback which one buyer did on here without even bothering to contact me first to help resolve an issue) despite the seller’s willingness to help resolve the issue, not accepting the help when it’s offered and of course, indecisive Tirekickers and people who just can’t seem to make up their minds and who try to pressure and cajole you into giving a significant price reduction on something you have to sell despite all the time and money that you’ve invested into fixing it. My selling record on here and Reverb speaks for itself with a lot of happy customers from around the world. My days of being drawn into arguments with people who don’t “get it” are over! Even though I have so many great awesome customers, there’s still a good amount of rude people out there who have no respect for sellers like myself and their time, and I do Apologize for having to put all of this out there and for the cumbersome length of this page. But with all of this being said, I want anybody who understands where I’m coming from to make a purchase if they would like to do so. If my having boundaries, terms and conditions offends you and you don’t want to do business with me, that’s fine. There’s still plenty people that understand where I’m coming from and that I have boundaries and that are happy with everything I do for them, purchase wise, they understand the value of my time and how I spell out everything unmistakably to where there is no room for misunderstanding or error, and those are the kind of customers that I would rather have. By making a purchase, you agree to the terms and conditions listed. THANK YOU FOR YOUR BUSINESS!
