Jimmy Page Meets Brian Auger 8-Track Tape. Tested, Plays

Description: Jimmy Page Meets Brian Auger 8-Track Tape. Tested, PlaysGambit G-519As pictured. In a brief test, it pulled smoothly and sounded good. - SHIPPING NOTES- U.S. CUSTOMERS: A package of five tapes weighs under a pound, so an order of up to five can ship via USPS Media Mail for the same price as ONE! Thus, purchasing multiples saves you significantly over ordering one at a time. Put everything in your cart, then order. Nonetheless, due to the way eBay calculates combined orders, you will likely be overcharged for shipping at checkout. But with multi-tape orders, I subtract the actual cost of the label from the total you were charged for shipping—then promptly refund the difference. If a domestic the order is for over $40 (not including sales tax), I’ll refund ALL the shipping. Fair enough? NON-U.S. CUSTOMERS: With most International orders, “one pound and under” packages can be sent quite reasonably. Four well-packed 8-track tapes weigh just under a pound, so four can be sent for the same price as ONE. However, given the way eBay calculates the weight of combined orders, you will likely be overcharged for shipping at check-out. But with each multi-tape International order, I subtract the actual cost of the label from the total you paid for shipping—then promptly refund the difference. Often, I’ll get an inquiry as to the cost of Internationally shipping a box 30 or 40 tapes, but this never works out—since International rates tend to rise exponentially with the weight and size of the package. PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND BEFORE ORDERING: Used, unrestored 8-track tapes such as THIS one are sold strictly as collector’s/ display items with NO guarantee concerning their operating condition. My observation that a given tape played fine on a Realistic TR-169 is NOT a guarantee that your machine will yield similar performance-- or for how long. Since this is a used, UNRESTORED tape, performance deficiencies concerning the pads or splice are possible. Thus, please order with the understanding that I neither accept returns, nor give adjustments or refunds related to performance matters. In fact, I strongly recommend this tape NOT be played until it can be properly serviced. Further, 8-track tapes were never designed to travel through the mail and rough handling can, on rare occasions, result in the tape un-spooling-- something over which I have no control. Unspooling is the reason a tape might drag or go “Whump… Whump… Whump” rather than tracking smoothly. In the event of a problem I’m happy to provide contact information for my 8-track guy who, for about $3, will rebuild it with new pads, splice, and sensing foil- a smokin’ good deal considering the time involved. Sorry for the lengthy disclaimer! Most 8-track guys already know this stuff, are quite familiar with the legendary unreliability of this format, and probably keep a splicing block, razor blade and sensing foil at the ready. But it gives me something firm and final to paste into a return message from somebody who’s shocked—SHOCKED!!-- that his 60 year-old Sears Silvertone ate a 50 year old 8-track tape-- and implies that this is somehow MY fault.
