This Smith-Corona 450 DLD was made in Singapore. This typewriter features a new-old stock ribbon, we cannot guarantee the longevity or quality of the ribbon. The rear left hinge for the cover is broken, see photos, so it does not stay on perfectly, but it does not inhibit use or function of the machine. We have also thoroughly cleaned the inside and outside of the typewriter. The internals have had a bath in a cleaning solution, followed by mineral spirits to remove old oil and dirt from all inner mechanisms. Any necessary repairs and adjustments have been made so that this machine performs as it should for years to come. 
 
We at TB Writers Plus LLC guarantee your typewriter for 60 days from the date of pickup/the day it ships out. The typewriter must be presented within those 60 days or proper communication must be made acknowledging the issue and arranging for machine to be brought in.
 
This guarantee covers repairs necessary from regular use and wear, not repairs caused by accidents, misuse, or neglect. Damages incurred during shipping are not covered by the guarantee and will be addressed separately. Guarantee covers parts and repairs listed on the attached invoice.
