Vintage Alpine AL-85 Cassette Deck - Museum Quality w/box, manuals and rare remote

For all the tape heads, here it is, a near pristine example of the rare, the illustrious, Alpine AL-85 Cassette Deck. This is a 2-owner cassette deck (I'm the 2nd owner) and it has been rarely used since purchase. If you are aware of this deck, you know the rarity, the technical prowess, and sound quality to be well earned and regarded among vintage audio enthusiasts. You can read about the technical ability on many sites, just by doing a google search, so I'll leave that up to you.
The one you are seeing here is a euro model with world-wide voltage selector switch and is set for North American current and has a North American plug adapter. Cosmetically it is near perfect. All buttons, switches, work flawlessly. All lights are bright and crisp. Both meters work fine. The tape path and heads are clean.

What is also nice to note is that this includes the super rare Alpine IR Receiver and Alpine RU-20 remote to operate this deck from your listening area with the original remote. The former owner had a custom Power supply built to power the receiver and will also be included. These remotes can go for $400-$500 just buy itself.

Please check out the pictures. My asking price is fair, I believe, for the rarity, condition and the extras included, though I am up for a bit of negotiation if needed.  I will only ship to confirmed addresses. I have perfect feedback and been a long time member of Audiogon.com as well on ebay.com for those curious.
Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking.
