Want to have those "new to you" 8 tracks you purchased online or at a thrift store tuned up/repaired before attempting to play them (always a good idea!).   Or are you getting back in to the 8 track hobby and want to have those tapes you bought brand new back in the 70's/80's, that have been in storage all these years, brought back to life?  Then this service is for you!  
 
It's never a good idea to pop an 8 track tape that has never been tuned up into your player.  Most of the old foam pads have turned gooey or hardened up so that as soon as pressure is put on them, they turn into dust.  A dust that will get all over the inside of your 8 track tape.  Or the sensing foil may let go during the track change, causing the tape to get eaten.  So an otherwise pristine tape, now has permanent damage.   
 
Full details of what this service includes, and what you will need to do to your tapes before sending them out can be found here (along with my shipping address):  https://www.8trackavenue.com/my-tape-repair-service   Please read through it before purchasing repairs.  The address to ship your tapes to for repair is also in that link.  Please note, the only home recorded 8 track tapes I currently work on would be old mix tapes you made.  If your tape is of a college band you were in, or a family gathering, I refer those to Mark at Audio Restorations for repair and digital transfer (his information is also in that link).
 
This service also includes cassette tape repair.  Although I no longer repair home recorded cassette tapes.  Or the sealed style cassettes (shell is not held together with screws) that have broken at the leader tape.   More details can be found here:  https://www.8trackavenue.com/cassette-tape-repair  That link also includes the address to ship your tapes to for repair. 
 
You will need to choose between Standard and Expedited repairs.  I only take on a small amount of Expedited repairs each month.  Please keep those to 30 tapes or less.   Standard repairs, please no more than 40 at a time.  You can mix and match between 8 tracks and cassette tapes.  
 
This listing is set up for Media Mail return shipping.  This is calculated for you at checkout.  Media Mail return shipping is free when you purchase 8 repairs and up.  If you would like another method of return shipping, just let me know and I can invoice you for that once your repairs are done.    Please do not combine your repair service purchase with other products from my web store.  This will throw the shipping off as they are different shipping profiles.  
 
U.S Customers Only please.  If you are wanting me to repair your tapes for you and you are outside the U.S, please contact me directly jon@8trackavenue.com
