Trying to unload a Teac X-10R

Trying to unload this albatross…
I’m unwilling to ship it due to weight and size, trying to sell for my nephew’s coworker. Honestly, I think he should handle the sale himself instead of getting me involved. Sitting on my dining room table gathering dust…

Not shipping really limits the audience...

But I understand they are almost as bad as tables to ship.

You should use it to prevent it from gathering dust Mark...

Looks like a keeper. Maybe you or your nephew can work out some sort of trade.

Yes that dining room table rental is $500/month...

Double wall computer box and some dense foam after you bag the unit. It’ll be fine.

Not that I haven’t considered that, and it is a very nice deck, but- big reels of tape are sooooo expensive! I fell in love with it, but given the cost of tapes I bought the X-7R. Yeh, I know I can use 7” reels with it, but I don’t see why I would want the option of large reels if I never wanted to buy them. 1800’ reels are fine, 48 minutes per side is about all I want or need.

Yup- I’ve been using it here and there. Connected it to the living room system a few times, dinner music…

Yeah, that’s the answer. U-Haul tomorrow, buy some boxes, revise the ebay listing…

It’ll sell.
