Everything I get I clean with either scent free or scented baby wipes!
If it was in NM cond, and worked, I would have kept it.
I bought my flagship player used, pioneer dv-79avi, had a slight cigarette or cigar smell, wiped her down with baby wipes, opened her up, oiled the tray rails w a toothpick of oil on all moving parts with synthetic oil. Blew it out with compressed air, (didn’t need it)
She sits in my rack and I’m hoping to get many more years from this top tier cd/dvd/sacd player.
The Pat travers Japanese mini LP CDs, simply are perfection!
if it was wrecked, or heavily scratched, return it.
a smell of smoke, meh, not a huge issue …….
ymmv
