VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ!
It takes a long time to test every tape, cassette, and cd that we buy. Consequently, these items have amassed in large quantities around here as no one has the time to check them out. They are all being offered here without testing. After you receive your items, please check them out within two weeks. Cassettes should be rewound if need be, then fast-forwarded and rewound again as this sets the tape to the tension of your machine. This works best for vhs tapes, too - rewind if necessary, then fast forward and rewind again. Cds should simply be cleaned with a soft cloth if needed. ... We rarely find items that have serious problems or are unusable, but if you do find something, please let me know right away and we can work out a return, credit, or refund. Thanks!
