Rare AIWA AD-M800 Stereo Cassette Recorder Deck (Faulty Remote)

Why Buy New is pleased to offer for sale, this brilliant, Rare AIWA AD-M800 Stereo Cassette Recorder Deck (Faulty Remote).

It comes in the original outer box but has been professionally repackaged to ensure safe delivery. It comes with a remote control (faulty) and a user manual.

This has been tested and is in full working order, other than the remote control. Unfortunately, batteries have leaked inside. With batteries inserted, the remote does power up, but the PCB inside will need cleaning/repairing. The deck has had 3 new belts changed, a rubber renewal applied on idlers and pinch rollers. It is sold with a 3 month warranty, which does not cover the faulty remote control.

The cosmetic condition is good. There are a few minor marks. Please see the condition in the images.
