I was never much of a VHS/DVD collector. I do have a couple working VCR's I got new back when I used to rent tapes at the store (Both JVC, VHS and a SVHS). These days they get used for video input to my old video capture computer setups (I collect them). I have been looking for a pro model SVHS VCR that has Sync input (to make sure audio and video stay in sync) and remote RS232 or RS485 so I can control it from my computer while editing. They are either too far away that I don't want to pay $100 just for shipping, or stupid crazy pricing with issues.
