This typewriter has been disassembled, thoroughly inspected, cleaned and reconditioned. The keyboard has also been sanitized. Any worn or non-working parts have been replaced. It’s been tested and is in excellent cosmetic and operational condition.
WHY DOES THIS TYPEWRITER COST MORE THAN OTHERS?
Brother electronic typewriters are well designed, and were built to last a long time.
However, Brother stopped making typewriters years ago because of the proliferation of the computer.
Any electric / electronic typewriter you buy is therefore likely to be more than 10 years old...
NOTE: It is easy to get ribbons and other supplies because Brother produced so many typewriters.
I buy, refurbish and sell a lot of these machines because they are so well-made.
But like any other mechanical device, they need to be maintained properly and sometimes repaired.
Although I only source typewriters that appear to be in top condition, here are some of the things that often have to be repaired or replaced upon inspection and testing (
and that you may have to deal with if you buy one that I haven't refurbished)
:
Faulty power supply, resulting in repetitive reset with any kind of vibration.
Sticky or bad keys
Gummed up rollers from paper fibers or white-out (yes, even though they have correction function
😊
)
Broken carriage pressure levers
Broken daisy wheels, bad ribbons or brittle correction tapes
Print hammer adjustments
Dirt, dust and paper fibers throughout the typewriter
Very often it is impossible to tell there is a problem by just looking at it or by typing a few sentences on a piece of paper. This is why I disassemble, inspect, thoroughly test and clean these typewriters before I offer them for sale.
I also sanitize the keyboards.
This all takes time, and is why I charge differently than other ones you may find.
When you receive this typewriter it will work well right out of the box, and for a long time after that.
Every one I sell has a fresh ribbon and correction tape roll installed, and also has a user guide with other original documentation.
In addition to including an
additional starter kit
, I also pack each one carefully and will quickly ship it to you
insured
- all for a flat and reasonable shipping fee
(outside of the Continental 48 states, please contact me before purchasing for rate).
I also provide a
WARRANTY
-
If within 30 days of delivery there is a problem with operation of the typewriter, I will repair or replace it with the same or better model - totally free of
any
charges to you. Warranty does not cover damage by user, or purchase by typewriter resellers.
I am committed to making sure you are happy with your purchase!
One more note about my pricing - the only reason I might price the same model differently is because of cosmetic condition.
I won’t sell a machine that isn’t operationally sound, that’s why I refurbish them to original standards.
The range of cosmetic condition goes from new / never used, to sun discoloration, slight scratches or various other imperfections - any of which I disclose and will post relevant pictures.
Please message me with any questions, and check my feedback for additional comfort before buying.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, and for your consideration!
