Hi, looks good but "Item/s sold as is." and no return policy is to me a dire warning maybe misjudged but I just move on when I see that especially as you are stating they are new.

The exception is if you are selling a broken item for spares or repair but not new items.

If you are intend stocking and selling a lot of this type of thing I would suggest a low tech version of the listing as well in a larger font because the casual buyer who just wants a tape or DVD-R to record their favourite sit-com will think techno-babble and move on.

IMO I would have made 2 listings of these so a buyer could buy either or both types and offer p&p discount to buy both.

I found the listing a little like hard work to read, maybe 3 small paragraphs, it is also important to use capitals for common acronyms like VCR and VHS and to be rigorous on things like PayPal with 2 capital P's, ok, nit picking but all ups the professional look and feel.
