Sony Uvw-1800 Betacam Sp Videocassette Player Recorder

This a refurbished Sony UVW-1800 Betacam SP BetacamSP Videocassette Recorder and Player. It is clean and in good shape, it just has some cosmetic scratches and blemishes on the case that are common for the age. Also please note there is some damage on the right upper face panel of the unit that was recently repaired, but this doesn't impact functionality. See photos to get a sense of condition. 
This deck has had a fair amount of use, but I'm sure to account for this when reconditioning these. I disasseble these decks, clean, lubricate mechanicals, fix broken mechanical and electronic parts, and rebuild them. If you need one of these that just works, and want the customer support (something I really take pride in), please give this a close look. I sell a fair number of these and if you look at my reviews you can get a sense of the pride and effort that goes into everything I sell.
Will ship with a working power cable, and will be extremely well packed for safe shipping given how sensitive these are during shipping. I take pride in providing exceptional customer service and satisfaction to my valued customers. As a seasoned Pricetronic seller of 23+ years, and now seller of vintage electronics, I understand the importance of supporting these unique and rare devices, which often lack manufacturer support or information due to their discontinued status. My 100% positive review rating speaks to my dedication to providing a premium buying experience, ensuring that you receive the highest quality product and personalized support every step of the way. Buy with confidence knowing that you're investing in the expertise and commitment of a trusted seller in the vintage electronics community.
