<div>I saw it earlier and didn't mention it because it's so
bad. Given the condition, it probably doesn't make any
difference but to make matters even worse, if you read the
description, the seller was able to rotate the head......not a good idea with
air bearings!</div>

<div>A while back I bought a complete IVC scanner on eBay. It was
cheap enough that the condition wasn't important, but it looked clean. The
seller contacted me and said he had misplaced the top cover for the drum which
is held on by spring clips. A couple of days later he found it, and
shipped the complete unit to me. It arrived in a very well packed box, and
he had also made sure that the cover would not fall off again, by running a
piece of heavy duty, very sticky shipping tape across the top cover and down
both sides of the drum, passing over the heads too! Oh well, like I said,
it was cheap, and it might even be OK, so it's on the shelf for future
exploration.</div>
