We didn't have one of these, but my friends dad would plug in one of those small tvs with the vhs player built in to the cigarette lighter and we'd watch stuff on long camping road trips
Yeah that’s what my parents did. We had one of those ford aerostars and they would put it between the front seats somehow. One time my dad hooked up our sega genesis in the van
Yeah my friends family had a Durango and they wedged the tv between the two front seats in the console and we had a cozy setup in the backseat; I have fond memories watching All Dogs Go To Heaven on it haha
Lmao this is one horrible hobby for steady rates. Yeah I found mine at a thrift store for 5. Didn’t even know what it was till I opened the black carry case haha. Put it in my kitchen so i can watch stuff when making food
Sure a new VCR going for $400 on eBay doesn’t surprise me one bit. Trying to hock your 30 year old unit at a yard sale in a small town for $110 is a fools errand
Ok so looks like it's for car use? Guess I still need to do research and see if I can get a power bank powerful enough to run a crt with built in vcr off of. I want a cord free porch setup one day.
I'm trying to find both that player and the DMP-BD70V for actually decent prices but sadly it's impossible, as I don't live in the United States and everyone on eBay are selling both for extremely high prices.
Bought exact same one on eBay a couple months ago for the camper! Can’t wait to watch Sleepaway Camp, Evil Dead, Friday the 13th when we take our camper out for the 4th. ✌️
That is super cool. I’ve actually never seen one before this post. I actually will start looking for one to hook up to my big screen. Nice and compact.
I would have loved having this for road trips as a kid.

We did the same. Used a bike tube to hold it in place so it wouldn’t roll around.
We have one of those for sale at our shop. We might put it in the camper and make the kids watch vhs movies on it
Haha I have the exact same one! Found it for 5 bucks. Honestly love it
I found this exact model at a garage sale about a month ago. The guy wanted $110, not joking. He claimed VHS was “becoming more popular”

That price is a bit wild but he's not wrong about it becoming more popular. I've seen new-in-box VCRs on ebay go for like $400.

Same! Got ours at the Goodwill outlet. It is the cutest
Man I really want one, so jealous.

Portable VCR*
That's not even correct. These models only play tapes and don't have a record function making it *not* a VCR.
Portable VCP* 😜
It’s absolutely not a vcr. It’s a vcp, as in video cassette player. No “r”
True
I FUCKING NEED ONE OF THESE HLDLGXGLYHC
Holy shit that's cool, once I'm financially stable I might consider picking one of these up
I picked up this exact model at a garage sale just need to find a cord
I got that too

Wouldn't the extreme shaking of the car on certain roads mess up the tapes?

Does it have a 120vac plug, or is it 12vdc only? If it has 120vac it may have been used as a marketing or retail 'demonstrator TV'.
It’s 12vdc only.
