This is in excellent condition APART from the battery area, in which batteries have leaked and are jammed inside.  For this reason it has not been tested and is sold as spares or repair.UK postage only please                                                                                                                         Thanks for looking.                                                                                                       Note to self: in cupboard no. C2
 Notes about postage, packing, feedback and other stuff:         I now list some of my items with Free p&p for UK bidders only.   Of course p&p is not really free, the cost is loaded onto the item start price so that the postage cost is totally opaque.  Sellers automatically gain 5 stars DSR feedback this way.   Combining items to save on postage does not apply to free p&p listings.   I dislike this approach however eBay rates sellers on p&p costs yet it also charges sellers 10% of the total.  Moving to free p&p is now the only way for sellers to increase their p&p DSR ratings.         Free UK p&p disadvantages overseas bidders, who have to pay listed p&p charges.  I will therefore offer a discount off the final value to all overseas bidders who win.  Please do not pay until you receive an invoice from me.  If I significantly overcharge on overseas postage and packing I will refund the difference.         For small items I use Royal Mail.  For medium sized items I use MyHermes and for larger items a courier from Parcel2go, typically TNT or UPS. I avoid Yodel whenever possible as they are completely hopeless. MyHermes is not the fastest courier but they are cost effective and they are reliable. I use the international tracked and signed service from Royal Mail for overseas destinations to avoid items going astray.   This is limited to a maximum weight of 2 kg; items exceeding this limit are for UK purchase only.  From Feb 2016 eBay has decided to evaluate sellers performance based on tracking information uploaded (and not when sellers state that an item was dispatched) and/or delivery.  I will therefore be phasing out the use of untracked second class postage and I regret that the cost of tracking will have to be passed onto buyers. This is an unfortunate consequence of yet another change of seller policy by eBay.           I pack items carefully and securely so that damage does not occur in transit.  I reuse packing materials to keep the cost down.  Due to an increase in the number of non paying bidders I now only pack items after payment has been received.         I am a private seller and only list on free-listing auctions.   I also list Buy it Now as eBay is now offering this format free too.   Sometimes I list Buy it Now or Best Offer please send sensible offers and I am more likely to accept.  Lowball offers are likely to irritate – my margins on most items are not that great and I am not desperate to sell stuff. I am certainly not spending an hour packing something for 1 or 2 profit!    I am also agreeable to a private sale off eBay, it is against their rules but I basically trust people and like people to trust me.   I sell some items specifically for charity.  I sell a mixture of my own items and items I have acquired for the purposes of resale.  I run a small private eBay business, mainly in radios and small electrical items such as tape recorders etc. as these reflect my hobby interests.         When I sell electrical items I always state the condition and functionality.  Modern items are generally electrically safe as defined by current legislation whereas vintage items might not be.  I always check and if necessary service items to ensure the correct condition is listed.   All electrical items are sold as is and should strictly be PAT tested before being put into service. Although I would never knowingly conceal dangerous electrical faults it is the responsibility of the buyer to comply with this.         Non paying winning bidders are a nuisance on eBay.  Unfortunately eBay charges its fees from the moment the auction ends, not from when payment is received.  Sellers are then forced to go through a protracted process to reclaim their fees if the sale falls through.   If you do not want an item you won please send a cancel transaction request (which I will agree to) otherwise I always initiate the non-payment process after a reasonable period of time and several attempts to make contact.  Non paying bidders who do not make contact will not be able to buy from me in future. I recognise that people change their mind and have no wish to force a sale through against a buyers wishes.  Asking to cancel a sale is perfectly acceptable ignoring messages and not responding so that I do not know what is happening is not !         If you are a new member with 0 feedback please contact me prior to bidding.   I reserve the right to cancel bids from members with 0 feedback because it is often these bidders who fail to pay.         I now require instant payment for Buy It Now purchases.  I have had to move over to this because of time-wasting non-payers who force sellers to initiate the non payment process.         If you live outside of the UK please do not bid on my UK only auctions as this causes postage problems.  Since I only post to Paypal registered addresses it is not sufficient to have a UK address if you live abroad and have your accounts registered abroad.  Bidders who do not observe this will have their bids cancelled and their usernames added to my blocked bidder list.  For smaller items such problems do not arise so worldwide bidders are welcome.         I am totally honest and I will try to resolve problems the best I can sometimes things do go wrong but I am ready to put them right.         If you have ever left negative feedback for another seller please contact me prior to bidding.  I reserve the right to cancel bids for buyers who have left sellers negative feedback.         If I discover my DSR ratings falling due to low star ratings and I can trace it to you your eBay ID will be placed in my blocked list preventing you from buying from me again.  I work hard to ensure that items are dispatched in good time if a courier is slow to deliver that is beyond my control. Postage costs are determined by the service offered and are typically higher for overseas destinations where I now insist on tracking.  Please do not complain about the postage costs afterwards as I do not make any profit on postage and packing;  in fact when fees are factored in I usually make a small loss.         If you leave negative feedback for me our transaction is over and you will never buy from me again.         Finally, apologies for having to state all the above most buyers are perfectly reasonable but there is a minority who cause unnecessary trouble for sellers.  If a problem arises just contact me to work out a solution.  Thank you, good luck bidding and enjoy using eBay.  Its fun !
