@coldplays179 i got the same tape but it's in a lot worse shape, but i found it in a half fallen down trailer house on some land my dad bought and it actually plays pretty good.
Oh, then I actually *watch* the video. How unusual. I got mine from someone who used it maybe once a week for five years. The turntable had literally collapsed on one side. One tape deck made a wretched mechanically squealing sound and didn't advance tape. The other deck's play button was jammed, complete with a cassette in the deck, all snarled up inextricably. Hell, even the stereo MPX function had failed on the tuner. I know. It's all integrated. Yeoow!
Umm... wow. Just wow. No, I can not believe my eyes. At all. It's an 8 track deck, grafted into a late 80's stereo. By the maker. Hmm. I owned a Soundesign stereo from that era. Wouldn't even suffice as a dumbbell. The thick metal cartridge mechanism - never modernized with Hasbro plastic - probably doubled the weight. Dare I suggest it's the only working tape deck?
Hope you got some money for it, but only as an "oh God... why?!" curio.
