I'm after a good betamax vcr. Multistandard would be nice, but a pal machine will do just fine. |

Goaboy told me some dutch guys here are selling vcr's. And those betamax recorders are way too expensive.

yes they are expensive. I bought a couple of "cheap" beta players on ebay, the postal cost for theese machines were very high.....hightech from the 80's isnt light but all machines died pretty fast. I have no nollige of how to fix a beta player...so they all ended up in the trash.....I got pretty frustrated and desided to buy a machine from the dutch guy with garentie, have the machine since a year or so, and it plays perfect! worth every cent! believe on the pre-cerd forum is also a guy who fixes betaplayers and sells them....he might give you a better price.....believe his name is "the love butcher" |

Well, Hans helped me out to get an very cheap VCC vcr from the dutch Marktplaats, shipping costs to Finland was some 30 euro i think and the VCR was also quite cheap and it's in good working order! Kurt, if you want a cheap and working machine, ask if Guy or Hans can help you out! Thou i think Hans is quite busy at the moment with some other projects! ![]()

It's working, but the tape loader mechanism leaves a lot to be desired. You have to finger the tapes out. A 100% fully functional one would be nice. |
