STEELY DAN - COUNTDOWN TO ECSTACY - Q8 - 8-TRACK QUADRAPHONIC CARTRIDGE TAPE

Very Rare Q8 4-Channel 8-Track Quadraphonic Cartridge Tape. Tape has been in storage.


The box(sleeve) is in Very Good Condition with the original shrink wrap still on the box with only a slit made to allow the tape to be taken out and I assume played. The tape has the original price sticker from over 40 years ago and has nothing to do with our asking price today. It has not be removed in order to keep the original packaging of the tape.

PLEASE NOTE AND READ:


This tape is an 8-Track Cartridge Tape mostly manufactured in the 1960s and 1970s. This tape has been in storage for a little over 20 years in a cool and dry location. It is a cartridge tape originally made mostly for the automobile market in those years. However many players were available to be used inside the home within audio systems of that day in special 8-Track players made for home use so that you could play the tapes in both locations. Please note that you MUST HAVE a player of this type in order to use and play this tape.

Quadraphonic 8-Track tapes MUST BE USED in equipment (players) that are of the quadraphonic type made expressly for a quadraphonic system.


AGAIN: QUADRAPHONIC IS NOT NORMALLY PLAYABLE ON 2-CHANNEL STEREO EQUIPMENT.

I ASSUME that those not marked quadraphonic are made for more conventional 2-track systems.


PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE A SYSTEM AND CORRECT PLAYER TO PLAY THESE SPECIALLY MADE 8-TRACK TAPES.




* * * * * * A NOTE REGARDING OUR SHIPPING PROCEDURES:

We primarily offer two shipping methods, as follows:

PRIORITY MAIL - which we highly recommend for several reasons. Your item should arrive to you in 2-3 days from our shipping date. It therefore is likely to be handled less and not sit around for long periods of time. It is shipped in a reasonably strong priority box as well as your tape still being wrapped in bubble wrap and the voids in the box filled with packing material.

MEDIA MAIL - which although is the cheapest mail the postal service offers is often said to require as much as 2 weeks from the date of shipping to be received by you, therefore in all probability sitting around for long periods of time and also perhaps receiving more handling in the process. For Media Mail your tape is wrapped in bubble wrap with a piece of cardboard placed across the top and one on the bottom. It is then placed in a bubble pack self sealing mailing envelope.

Again, we highly recommend PRIORITY MAIL for the security and protection it offers.If you have won 2 or more tapes within 2 days of each other, ask about our combined shipping rates first before paying.

Shipping for International buyers is through eBay's Global Shipping Program only.
