All components are in excellent used condition for their age.
Car was purchased by La Ronda Restaurants, Inc., which is pretty cool, given the history. All items are labeled by La Ronda, as pictured, and warranty card was filled out and sent in, so is not present in the Service and Warranty Policy booklet.
All booklets, at worst, show minor edge wear only, save for the red catalog, whuch shows a crease to back cover (pictured), a small stain on front cover (pictured) and some stains around outer edges of the block (pictured). Otherwise, in very nice condition.
Pouch shows standard rub wear, as pictured, but is otherwise excellent.
Included with this kit:
-- 300 SEL 3.5 Owner\'s Manual
-- 280 S, 280 SE Limousine, 300 SEL & 300 SEL 6.3 Air Conditioning System Manual
-- Owner\'s Service and Warranty Policy for Domestic Passenger Cars Booklet
-- Type 300 SEL - 300 SEL 6.3 - 300 SEL 3.5 (BM 109) Parts Catalog - Dated 1969
-- Kangol Seat Belts Model L.D.3 Usage, Maintenance and Operating Instructions One Sheet
All are dated to late 1969/early 1970, so assuming this came with the 1970 model 300 SEL, best I can tell anyway.
Overall, an excellent, but incomplete, package, with everything present being in very nice condition!
See all photos.
I ship on Tuesday and Friday evening each week. As a heads up, my local post office has been slack about getting pre-labeled mail scanned in for a business day or two, regardless of when in the day you drop the packages. Rest assured, though, that your package will absolutely be in their hands on or before the day they are due to ship. Please do, though, bear with me if they leave your package on, \"label created\" for a day or two past the shipping date. Not sure what is going on with them recently. Everything has been getting delivered quickly once it gets moving.
Independent seller. Please see my response, read the disclaimer below in full and buy with confidence!

UNIVERSAL DISCLAIMER: (READ THIS IN FULL!!)
I am a reseller and, while I do deal in a lot of books and VHS tapes, I am by no means a professional grader. I will always do my best to describe anything I sell as fully and accurately as possible, where applicable. Likewise, I will always try to provide as many pictures as I can in order to help you get the best full picture of what you are buying and I am always happy to provide more via DM upon request.
With this being what it is, as the buyer, please be sure to read full item description thoroughly and take some time to study all pictures. If you have any questions or specific concerns (ie. \"Does the book have any weird odors?\") that I did not address in my item description, please touch base with me about those prior to making a purchase.
As a reseller, we will likely, as buyer and seller, see items differently. I will see things that bug me that don\'t bother you at all and vice versa. You, as the buyer are likely to have concerns that never crossed my mind, so it is always best that we address those to your satisfaction prior to purchase. I\'d much rather lose a sale before it happens because you caught something I missed than to have you unhappy with your purchase after the fact because something was missed. So, again, please see all pictures, read full description and ask any and all questions you may have freely. No question is a dumb question (unless it just so undeniably is) and I\'ll never be bothered by you continuing to ask as many questions as you need to to make sure you are getting what you want.
BOOKS:
I am, again, a reseller and not a dealer or grader of books. I\'ll describe and photograph as best I can and as accurately as I can, but I am no authority on accurately grading books to a professional\'s standards. Please request as many pictures and ask as many questions as you need to prior to purchase, should I have failed to mention anything of concern to you, and I\'ll help you out in every way that I can. Gladly. I absolutely want your money, but I also want you happy to have spent it with me.
VHS Tapes:
\"What does play tested mean?\"
Play tested means that I fully fast forward and rewind every tape to make sure they do so as expected, with no issues. I think play the tape from start, through to just after the title screen, to see how it plays from start. I think fast forward and stop to play every 15 minutes or so of the tape; At which point I will play the tapes for a few minutes and watch for any issues/judge playback quality. I do this throughout the length of the tape to ensure consistency.
When it comes to VHS tapes and VCRs, so many different factors can make a given tape perform differently on different VCRs and/or televisions.
Generally, the picture quality of a VHS tape will be far better on a CRT than a flat panel. I test on a flat panel. By all logic, it the picture is great on my flat panel, it should be excellent on your CRT.
VCRs, on the other hand, can get oddly temperamental with specific tapes and not others and many different issues inherent to a VCR can cause issues with the playback of some tapes but not others.
I will test all of my tapes well and I will always be honest about the results of said testing. If the tape shows an issue on my end, I will include this issue in my item description.
If you purchase a tape from me and you run into an issue that I did not mention in my item description, please, BEFORE TRYING TO RETURN THE TAPE, test the tape in another VCR first, as there is a 99% chance that the issue is the VCR and not the tape as I have, again, fully tested said tape and random issues almost never just spontaneously present with VHS tapes in the perjod of a couple of days of non-use.
If you test the tape on a second unit and the problem still presents, I will happily accept your return request and offer my apologies for the malfunction. Those spontaneously occuring issues with VHS tapes are very rare, but they DO sometimes happen.
If I fail to address anything about a given tape/case that you want to know, ask! I\'ll be happy to help, always.
EVERYTHING ELSE:
As a general reseller, I\'m apt to run across any and everything. Where applicable, I will always test and provide as much information about the items I sell as I can. However, as I am a reseller and you are the item specific buyer, it falls to you to ask any questions you may have about an item or items that I am selling, should I fail to cover an area of concern you may have in the item description.
If you want to know if that radio shows static when adjusting the volume, that coffee cup is super heavy or if that Lisa Frank binder from the 90s smells like cheese and broken dreams and I fail to address any of these things in my item description, SEND ME A MESSAGE AND ASK ME! I am, again, always happy to help.
*** I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY PROBLEMS THAT ARISE WITH ANY ORDERS DUE TO BUYERS FAILING TO SEE PROVIDED PICTURES OR READ FULL ITEM DESCRIPTIONS ***
Please do not request returns for issues that arise because you, as the buyer, failed to do your due diligence in reading provided item description and/or studying provided photographs. If the error is mine, I am always happy to own that and make things right. I ask that you, as the buyer, do the same. If your error lead to an unwanted purchase, please own the mistake and don\'t feel the need to punish good folks because we were not able to know you wouldn\'t bother looking at the very relevant information we provided.
I do also understand that honest mistakes DO happen and I will do my best to help you out in these cases, just message me and let me know what\'s up and we will do what we can.
You are paying that shipping, though!
If you actually read this far, I\'m sorry, but thank you! You are awesome and I hope you have an awesome day!
[[
If you try to return something due to an issue that was clearly evident from pictures or item description, I\'m going to have you come read the item description in full before I will entertain a return/refund. If you read this in full and still want the return/refund, I\'ve got ya, but I\'m gonna be real disappointed in you.
