I'll gladly buy it if you can confirm it doesn't suffer the
chroma issue that mine does. [Clarifying: I mean that I'd like you to attach a 1 to 10 second lossless sample of a dark scene from an SP mode tape captured with the Detail/Norm/Edit switch set to Edit. You don't have to do any inspection yourself.]
The price sounds too good to be true for a properly-functioning unit, but I know you from other forums. I guess you've got all of your tapes digitized at this point?
Though I'm in Canada, you'd be sending to a WA address.
