....or at least use MUCH caution when doing so:

If you get your tape deck in a non damaged condition then consider yourself very lucky and remember that even if your recorder does not have apparent external damage, it most likely has internal issues of which you may not be aware and despite the deck "working". Internal structures can be bent and PCB boards cracked.
I can't speak for everyone and only have my reputation here to go on and I'm telling you that these 2 sellers sent me decks which arrived damaged. Their packing was a joke, despite what you read or what they tell you.
Take what I say here seriously or with a grain of salt. It's up to you.
As for me, I will never, ever believe or trust what a seller says or promises. My eBay days are over and local pickup is my next best friend.
If you have had personal experiences with bad eBay packers or sellers in the past, post their user id here so that we can protect each other.
Remember, use caution because what is a nice deck if it will likely get damaged during shipping by idiot packers ?
Btw, whatever positive words I had for portauthority in a past thread, I feel bad about and I hope no one, as the result of my premature recommendation, had a bad experience with this seller. My appologies again.
