The 1970 Tape is SOLD
NOTE : I am adding the following note, effective Monday, January 21, 2019.
Depending on when you might purchase one of the tapes noted in the List, there could be an approximate 1 - 2 week delay in my shipping it to you. This is the result of one of our members wanting to purchase one of the tapes, and my playing it before completing the sale (as I intended to do with each tape purchased). During playback, it played through every song, on each of the 4 channels, but at the end of the last song, when it is supposed to go back to the beginning of the first channel, there was no sound. After removing the tape, I confirmed what I suspected ; the tape had broken at the "foil splice" which is used in 8 Track tapes to "tell" the player to go back to the beginning. This is actually a fairly common occurrence on these old tapes. Even if the tape "plays through" fine now, it will most likely only be a matter if time before it breaks at the splice (according to the "experts").
As my intent is to sell these tapes with more than a "one and done" function, I have decided to send them all in for "professional" Tune-Ups, which includes, cleaning, replacing the foil splices, and also, if necessary, the pads. Accordingly, tapes purchased after January 24, 2019, besides having a delayed shipping time, will also have $5 added to the prices shown above, to help cover part of the cost of the "Tune-Up" and the "back and forth" shipping costs I will incur. For this, you will receive a tape that functions correctly for now and for sometime "down the road".
Thanks for your understanding. I believe that the wait and the minimal additional cost will both be well worth the wait.
If you just want a tape "for show and no go", and gamble on its playing correctly, you need to order before I ship them off on Friday, the 25th.
