Very hard to find set. It does seem to work, but the tape doesn't want to move. I used 3 Duracell batteries to test it. It made scratchy noise when the switch was set to playback, and tape was pushed in a bit. The tape reel didn't move, though. I'm not sure if the tape is bad or what. Nothing happens when switch is on record. As is. Parts. Batteries not included. Shipped carefully and fast. Please review all pictures carefully for exact cosmetic condition.
