Technics model SL-CH555.

Sold it on EBay. Worked perfectly when I shipped it. The guy who got it claims the door won't open and the CD's aren't being advanced or read by the player. I have dealt with the guy before and have no reason to think he is lying.

My question is: What could have happened during shipping to cause this, and can it be fixed? I feel like I packaged it well, but obviously not.

Should have blocked him after the last transaction

So y'all don't think there is any way something could have happened during shipping to rattle the player around a little?

I have taken apart a dvd player and there are small belts that look like a rubber band and small plastic gears. It wouldn't take much tossing around a package to break 20+ year old brittle dried up internal parts.

I’m amazed anything survives shipping.

There is a ton of crap inside a CD changer that can get jarred...and the transport (the part that houses the mechanical sliding door) is a common part to break on older players that haven’t been shipped and banged around by UPS, much less ones that have.

He’s probably not lying to you.
