Seller was very communicative and accommodating. Item was as described. It was packaged extremely well, and is of a great value.Tascam Portastudio 414 4-Track Multitrack Cassette Tape Recorder (#187179506433)

It even made it through the notorious FEDEX system in perfect condition! The unit came on time in a huge cardboard box with the 3 components (speakers plus player) each thickly wrapped in bubble wrap. The wrap probably cost more than the shipping. The unit, advertised as "Tested working," plays perfectly! Goodwillvsp gets the highest rating for all aspects of this sale. Thank you, 5 STAR seller!!
