I have bought two decks Yamaha KX-1020 $180 and a Carver TD-1700 $140 on ebay in the last two months,both were advertised as Mint perfect working condition just like new,Yeah right!!!Got the Yamaha and had to press the FF and RW buttons about 50 times to slowly get the FF and RW functions to start working,then i hit the play button and nothing.I took the top cover off to see what i could see and low and behold there was the belt laying on the bottom,it looked like it had melted into a pile of gooo.Well i took the deck to a local repair shop to have the belts replaced and he told me that the capstan motor was shot and needed replacing also,all this for a deck that was advertised as Mint like new perfect working condition.Next is the Carver,got this "little gem" a couple of days ago also advertised as "Mint",this person must of took a picture of someone elses Carver TD-1700 because the one i got does'nt look like the one in the picture.First of all the deck looks like it was dragged behind a truck down a gravel road,and second the cassette door will not open without prying it open with a scewdriver.And lastly the inside of the cassette compatment looks like a rats nest (Filthy Filthy!!)What a waste of over $300. |
