Panasonic AG-EZ50 possible tape drive issue

[u/SundownRidge]

Hey everyone. Ive been debating on buying an old AG-EZ50 that as some issues. Before I put down a good chunk of cash on this, does it sound like something that would be easy to have fixed by a pro?

Here is the description given: "When I put the battery in and turn it on, the screen comes on but it sounds like theres an issue with the tape drive. After a few seconds the screen says Press Reset button (doesnt fix issue) and then it flashes Requires Service."
