Ha Ha  Ha. Yes we also could be Tape-billionaires.
By the way, i also own my old mixtapes on the legendary MAXELL XL-II tapes for a lot of parties in my youth. And i also have my first car-stereo-system, a now vintage ALPINE Car-stereo-system from 1993.
To Pavel: No there is no Mark signature on that crazy tape.
To dusty: Yes you are right. Some vintage tapedecks have a renaissance today to some vintage hi-fi-collectionists. Brands like: Nakamichi, AKAI, Piioneer, Studer-Revox and so on are interesting in our days.
But back to Tape-topic: Nobody will buy that. Never ever, and not in 100 years. And what about the sound-quality by those near 40 years old tapes ??

Oh, you're right, I never noticed that. The seller has a peculiar history of both positive, and negative interaction, that's strange. Probably because he's from Japan? Who in his right mind will buy a guitar in this bad shape for this amount of money anyway... If he's willing to do that, he will surely handle any situation you can encounter in this world with dignity, including a little scam.

Main complaint seems to be that he doesn't actually own the guitars then cancels the order, odd.

Not that odd. Sometimes sellers have items on different sites and sell them through one of them and forget (or neglect) to delete the item. It happened to me with records that were being sold at ebay and discogs at the same time quite often.

Didn't noticed it was half speed!

Mine cost me around 150 euros if I'm right. A beautiful record to have!

Remember that most asked prices are not the actuel sold price.
And some vendors asking for stratospherical price are not in need to sell it fast but are just gamgling.
An experienced guitar owner pointed out that the guitar market was saturated by offers.
Choice is everywhere and at all prices.
