Condition

Current assessment: Good cosmetic condition overall, showing normal age-related wear. Please examine all listing photos carefully; they form part of the description. Condition terminology is subjective and provided as guidance only.

Ownership & History

I am not the original purchaser; this cassette is at least second-hand. Prior storage conditions are unknown.

Testing Status

Not tested. I do not have the time to test every cassette-based title. As such, this item is listed in the “For Parts or Not Working” category and should be assumed non-functional unless you successfully test it yourself.

Age & Media Considerations

Magnetic media from the 1980s typically had an expected usable life of roughly 10–20 years; this cassette is well beyond that window (30+ years old). Tape degradation is possible. Attempting to load aging media may shed oxide or other residue inside your tape deck or connected hardware, which could affect future operation.

Use at Your Own Risk

Offered primarily as a collector / display piece. If you choose to load or play the cassette, you do so entirely at your own risk. I cannot accept responsibility for any damage, malfunction, or cleaning/repair needs resulting from use of this vintage software.
