FYI -
This
technology /
device
is 26 years old which required a complete age restoration performed whether or not it is used by the original owner. Age restoration required replacing all aluminum surface capacitors on all circuit boards (tip of the ice berg) among many other things to be able to operate properly and reliably
(just like when it was new)
. This is what you get done from all devices purchased from DoctorSony (the renowned finest Sony Corporation Technical Specialist and Master Tech of these
devices
in the USA) and for your peace of  mind carries a 90 Days Courtesy Service Warranty (not a return for refund).
***ZERO DEFECT POLICY
PROTOCOL - A high touch is provided without exception on every devices - complete functional aging test prior to packaging on the last minute or we wont ship to avoid any kind of shuttle hassle to all buyers - we are not after volume sale but elevated buyer's satisfactory experience). If you ever experience any issue with the device - please do not jump the gun because it could only be attributed to your bad media or most likely from freight / package being banged around during transit by the courier (while we do the best we can to protect the device these are beyond our control and responsibility - I recommend requesting an optional full value insurance coverage because the defacto is only 0 (FedEx) at no additional cost). The cosmetic housing may survive harsh handling but the delicate mechanism and electronics may not.  This is the special attention all our buyer gets. Therefore,  if you are buying from other sellers - let it be a CAVEAT.
A little background - In the early days, DoctorSony always been called Doc, Surgeon / A-Tech by people who witnessed first hand his specialized knowledge / understanding, highly efficient diagnostic techniques, expertise and precise skill sets from Sony, Tandy, Circuit City and enumerable smaller repair shops outsourcing tough work to him before he finally establish his own practice and cater directly to end users locally & now practically globally while limiting his services to mostly Sony devices ergo DoctorSony.

To explain the concept of "Full Restoration" does NOT mean making the device to "New Condition" because this is simply impossible to achieve due to the following factors of:
Aging
Wear and Tear
Parts Availability
Full Restoration accounts for presence of wear & tear, aging, patina and all encompassing word "Entropy". Simply put making it serve its fundamental purpose and be useful again.
***PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE LISTING CAREFULLY PRIOR TO PLACING A BID***
For people who own & experienced the superiority of Sony's product lines in overall design craftsmanship, performance and reliability here's an opportunity to add one to your collections.

Why 8mm / Hi8 / Digital 8 / Beta / VHS / MiniDV / MicroMV Tape format?
The 8mm cassette known as analog Video8, Hi8 and Digital8 recording format has been around since 1984. For 32 years it has been a compact, rugged and reliable media for capturing our precious memories. Now a days I'm sure these captured memories could not be more valuable and priceless to everyone. However, the working devices to playback these time capsules are dwindling in numbers and nolonger made due to the high cost of manufacturing. If you happen to find them, it is not unusual they accompany many issues primarily due to age and repair service availability despite this format is designed to outlast many generations way passed our lifetime.
This is where my many years of knowledge, skills and experiences acquired as former Sony Technical Employee for 7 years (since 1988 before going independent), Awarded and Recognized by SONY Corporation of America Ranking 3rd of SONY's Top 24 Most Wanted (1990 - SONY's Finest Technical Specialist) in the nation becomes useful. Every devices we restore and sell here carries a 90 days Courtesy Service warranty and serviced right the first time to give you a peace of mind, guarantee you're not taking any chances.
However, I would like to be very explicit that I DO NOT accept any RETURNS for REFUND (no exceptions). eBay's money back guarantee for not as described here DOES NOT apply to any of my listings because I am very meticulous and have a very high attention to details
