Official GCN component cables, damn.  Those are insanely priced now.

Wow D VHS.


I have toyed with the idea of getting one of the players. But he price just doesn't make sense to collect for

Locally, for your equivalent of about $20.

Keep an eye out on evilbay. One will pop up that should be "affordable". Most probably the JVC HM-DH30000U model. That's the one I have.

The flea market got me for $100 today.

These things are awesome.

Picked up a JVC HM-DH5U HDMI model for $5 at a Salvation Army a while back. Was looking for years. :3

This might be more me not knowing prices but what in that lot pushed it to $100? 

[bob]

well, I paid 40 for Vanguard Bandits and 15 for Strikers 1945.  All the others were 5 each.
I have built a pretty good relationship with the guy over the last couple years.  To the point now where he picks up lots and holds them until I see them before he puts them out.  His asking prices are always lower than ebay, so I never really need to haggle him.

Nice!

Mine is the "entry level" player. The JVC HM-DH5U is a higher-end model. Your player has alternate audio track capabilities. For example: it can also do DTS with those D-Theater tapes that support it. Mine is "only" Dolby Digital compatible. That difference is a matter of taste, but at least you have the choice.

Oh you'll definitely get a kick out of seeing 720p/1080i coming from a videotape cassette. haha

Picked up one of these on the cheap,

Please don't play any decent records on that Crosley...

Dang, you can't escape it. lol
Is there any place where these don't get a bad rep?

So they'll damage the records, yeah?

They will, plus they don't sound very good... It would be fine for scratched up thrift store records.
