30-day returns, buyer pays return shippingThis was basically a new-in-box unit. It includes some original accessories (see below).
Details:
Accessories included (as pictured):
- original box and styrofoam insert (some damage to box)
- manual
- original batteries (not used, presumed dead)
- phonograph plate and 45-RPM record adapter
- phonograph tone arm, working (tested on another unit)
- carrying case for the accessories (a bit stiff, vinyl)
- antenna for the radio function (also acts as the on/off switch for the radio when inserted)
- tape reel with tape * (from another type of unit -- has some recording on it)
- empty tape reel for take-up *
* Note that the triplecorder uses an unusual tape reel that has a hole in it that works with a peg on the spindle to turn it. I modified a couple normal reels to work with it by grinding a notch in the hub to match the peg, so I'm including those.
Missing items:
- antenna for radio (which also turns on the radio function)
- microphone
- ear phone
The motor runs but there is no sound. Based on another one I worked on (sold recently), you would need to replace all of the electrolytic capacitors (about 12 of them) to get the electronics working. The motor and spindles need lubricated for smooth operation also.
It will be carefully boxed for shipping. Please be careful trying to remove the styrofoam from the original box -- it fits very tightly, and the box is getting brittle. I would just turn it upside down and shake it until it starts sliding out.
