Degeneration of an AG-1980

[Brad]

I have my phone set up to notify me about new Craigslist posts for certain VCRs, etc.

Last month, someone listed a Panasonic AG-1980 for $130. It was stated to be in excellent condition.
Two weeks later, the price was dropped to $120.
Less than a week later, the price fell to $45. The new listing noted an "issue"... "does not load tapes."
Shortly afterward, the price dropped again to $35.

It's gone now; don't know whether the seller gave up and trashed it or managed to sell it to a hopeful buyer by some means.

I'd think it would be a prerequisite for a VCR to load tapes.

You mean like a giant audio cassette that goes in a giant box? I saw one of those things at the Smithsonian. :facepalm:

Very Cool Radio. I think it's like a older zune.
