This item is part of a room full of vintage electronics that have been displayed, unused as a 'for viewing only' personal collection.
The items in this electronics collection have been displayed, unused, not even plugged in, for a minimum or 10+ years or more according to the family of the original owner.
We are selling these items as "UNTESTED", "NOT WORKING" and you should be buying it on that assumption.
DO NOT BUY
and then complain it does not work as it is listed as
"UNTESTED", "NOT WORKING"
and the eBay condition stated as
"FOR PARTS or REPAIR / NOT WORKING".
Take responsibility for your purchase and READ the listing BEFORE purchasing!

WHY UNCLE WALDO
?
Uncle Waldo specializes in previously owned collectibles and electronics.
Many items are sold on consignment for the original owners.
We obtain electronics in person and experience them working.  We then re-test every item before listing and again before shipping.   Our listings include enough detailed information to help you make an educated purchase.  Please take the time to read the listing before purchasing   Read our feedback - Our packing is second to none!
We
DO NOT
obtain or sell items from Flea Markets, Pawn Shops, Corporate Liquidations, Estate Sales, Yard Sales or Swap Meets.
ASK QUESTIONS - BUY WITH CONFIDENCE!
========================================
TESTING:
We plugged it in and it powers on.  The player does nothing else.  The tray will open on occasion, not always and does the 'open/close/re-open' routine allot when you load a disc. - No further testing done.
This device was part of a personal vintage electronics display for over 10 years - SOLD AS "FOR PARTS/NOT WORKING" - Do not buy assuming it is plug and play and will work beyond what I have stated and tested!
SOLD AS "FOR PARTS/REPAIR NOT WORKING" AND YOU SHOULD BUY IT ASSUMING THAT ONLY!
SOLD AS YOU SEE IT IN THE PHOTOS
COSMETIC CONDITION:
It is in nice previously owned condition (with the usual cosmetic scuffs/scratches and dings) considering its age.
========================================
DESCRIPTION
The Pioneer CLD-S201 was made back in the day when losing your remote wasn't a complete catastrophe.
All player functions are accessible from the face of the player. In later years, manufacturers stopped putting all the buttons on the face plate in the name of aesthetics
========================================
The listing is for ‘what you see in the photos’:
Pioneer CLD-S201 - Laser Disc / CD Player with attached power cord ONLY
- NO OTHER ACCESSORIES INCLUDED -
Please DO NOT assume something is included if you do not see it in the photos.

US SHIPPING ONLY
QUALITY PROFESSIONAL PACKING:
SEE THE LAST TWO PHOTOS IN THE LISTING
Before you buy anything you should always ask the seller how it will be packed, professionally as we pack or just tossed in a skin-tight box with crumpled newspaper.  An educated consumer does not just compare price, he/she also compares packing because we all know how FedEx and USPS handle packages! - What good is something priced cheap if it arrives damaged?
IT'S YOUR MONEY!
Quality packing ensures safe delivery and costs the seller money.  That is why many sellers ship in the tiniest box, crumpled newspaper and use a single sheet of bubble wrap.
How do we know?
We buy online also and know that first hand!
We pride ourselves on professional packing!   All items are first wrapped in
stretch wrap then in several
layers
of bubble wrap and placed in an oversized box that is
double or triple walled
on the side panels so there are
several
inches of packing material and strong styrofoam supports between the item and the outside of the box (SEE PHOTOS).   This means the item will not move within the box nor should it ever touch the outside of the box if dropped, where damage can occur.
All boxes are
BRAND NEW
!   We
NEVER
re-use previously used boxes!   We do not go cheap just to make a sale and pray it arrives safely.  We know how FedEx and USPS handle packages.

SHIPPING OPTIONS
IMPORTANT
:
eBay
requires
that ALL Fedex shipping labels printed through their service have a US (continental 48 states only) residential or commercial address.
If your eBay "SHIP TO" is not to a residential or commercial address in the continental United States,
you cannot select any FEDEX shipping service.
The ship to address cannot contain "Box", "P.O. Box", "Post Office Box", "APO", "Hawaii", "Puerto Rico", "VI", "Guam", etc.
FedEx
delivers to
residential or commercial addresses ONLY.  If you are not at home FedEx will leave the package at your door.  If you do not want the item left at the door unattended, please contact us
before
paying for the item so we can add signature service (FedEx charges approx .00 for this service).
Once the invoice has been paid we
cannot
make changes.
FedEx
does not
ship to HI, AK, PR, Post Office Boxes, or APO's without an additional (expensive) surcharge
- Priority Mail is available for these destinations
USPS Priority Mail
shipping is also an option if you prefer and is the ONLY method to ship to APO, PR, AK, HI and Post Office  Box buyers as FEDEX does not ship to these addresses without an
expensive
surcharge added
USPS Parcel Select/Retail Ground Service
-
Due to the high rate of damaged packages and because this service takes up to 2 weeks to go coast to coast... and because it is
NOT
insured, I prefer not to use this terrible service.    AND THIS SERVICE USUALLY COSTS MORE THAN FEDEX which usually takes 4-5 days coast to coast!   Again, It's your time AND money!
ESTIMATED DELIVERY DATE
:
The "delivery date" you see is an
eBay generated estimate
.
This date is not stated, verified nor is it guaranteed by the USPS, UPS or FedEx nor by the seller and should be used as an "
ESTIMATE
" and not a 'set-in-stone'
delivery date.
Check the tracking number with the carrier for the exact delivery date as it varies depending on the weather (floods, hurricanes, etc), shipper work-load or time of year.
HANDLING TIME
:
Due to the great care we take in packing receivers, this item will be shipped within THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS after receipt of clear payment.  That means that if you pay on a Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, it will be shipped the following week - FedEx does not ship on weekends!
========================================
DAMAGE/INSURANCE CLAIMS
If it arrives with physical damage not shown in the photos and not stated in the description,
an insurance claim can be filed with the shipper in accordance with eBay buyer protection policy.
As the person in possession of the item and who can point out the physical damage, it will be quicker for you to file the claim and then present the item for inspection should the shipper require it prior to processing the claim.
The shipper
requires
that you retain all packing materials and the box and present them along with the unit to the shipper if they request an inspection.
IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KEEP THE BOX AND ALL PACKING FOR A CLAIM.
A claim usually takes 5-7 business days to be processed.
