Hi Guys, I purchased this Sony U-matic Videocassette player VP-5030 the other day and just looking to find out if anyone knows much about it? I basically bought it because it looks like it's come out a rocket ship lol. All I know is that it takes a special 3/4" tape (if you know where to get...

Hi Guys, I picked up a Sony Videocassette player the other day both literally (almost breaking my back in the process - thing weighs a ton) and figuratively by purchasing it at a pretty solid price. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a supplier of the tapes used in this machine...

Yeah, it's a mean looking machine. Break your back trying to carry the thing around haha. I'm surprised that chair hasn't been squished into the ground. I'm still doing some research on it and looking for a price that would be fair. Knowing what it is and what it's worth, what would be your...

I go through to auctions and keep an eye out for all old music related items like amps, speakers, instruments etc. I know there is a big market for collectors. I saw this unit and thought there has to be someone out there that would appreciate it. If you wouldn't mind, could you give me some...

Hi All, I'm new to AV, not sure how to go about it just yet. I am looking for some advice on what to price my Nakamichi 1000mp disc player? If anyone might have an idea please don't hesitate to let me know. If images would help, please DM me and I can send some through. Cheers
