I could probably sell that for 5-6 times more than what you paid for it as it sits is that a thrift find? I'm wondering when people will finally run out of VCRs to donate

Yep Thrift store find. No remote unfortunately. There's a Panasonic top loader I have my eye on too. Maybe tomorrow.

Really? Not powering them up before inserting tape kills them?! Thanks for the heads up on that one!
Picture quality is good. Build quality is excellent.

Checked it out. It was a top loader with stereo sound and dolby noise reduction. Beat to hell so I passed on it. It did have a service tag dated 1995.

I love the build of these late 80's VCR's. Plus there's a separate button for everything

I'll get a picture of that. It is a nice feature.
I also found a JVC stereo from the same era that has the same styling. I'll make a post about that soon
