I know several people have been wanting these.
They have the 7965 and 8965 both, supposedly in stock.
Enjoy.

and I do not think any of these will turn up on ebay, unlike the usa models that they guy on ebay has obviously cleared out from a wholesaler somewhere.

People too often fall in love with these machines, and keep them forever. If they ever "fail" users go to great lengths to repair them.

I bought my JVC HR-7965 from a shop in London's West End, which was near one of the Gultronics shops (why do these places all look so messy?). This was on the 1st Feb.
I didn't get the last one either, as there was a display model still there - don't know about other availability though.
If anyone wants to PM me I will send them the address and phone number (Lordsmurf; hope that this is okay) to try their luck.

Keep looking on ebay too. I picked up a 7955 model on ebay for a good price. The video is in great condition too.
It was really clever of JVC to withdraw their best vcrs.I hope this has taught you kids a lesson: kids never learn. -

I wonder why JVC withdrew them though - poor sales in the first place maybe?Cole -
It is a shame, but the trouble is these days, is anyone really going to spend about £150 on a new VCR when a DVD Recorder costs about the same, or a DVD player can cost as little as £25...

I think they must have been withdrawn due to poor sales. The general public will have no idea about tbc/dnr and most have no idea about svhs. They just want something to tape with and watch their old tapes. This means they buy the cheaper videos. JVC are missing out here i guess since many of the no name brands are much cheaper.I hope this has taught you kids a lesson: kids never learn. -
As I heard it, S-VHS (as a format in whole) has been officially discontinued. I have not verified that statement, but it seems to fit, to a degree at least. In light of this, I have stocked up on VCRs, a huge honkin' pile of blanks, and am set for the next 5-10+ years.

I don't think it's been discontinued yet. In the new Argos catalogue (well the one for Ireland anyway) they still have the 5965/75 S-VHS ET VCR, which seemed to disappear from the previous season's catalogue. Maybe they just have loads of stock left over.

Ok, found this I hope Gem, jvc hr-s9600EK, made in germany being sold by a guy in the UK I have found, but...........
this is the wordage from the manual and no mention of digipure or 2mb memory, can you help, thanks.
Digital TBC/NR
Your video recorder is equipped with the Digital TBC (Time
Base Corrector) that removes jitter from fluctuating video signals
to deliver a stable picture even with old tapes and rental
cassettes.
The on/off of Digital 3-DNR (Noise Reduction) which cuts noise
and enables clear picture reproduction is also linked to this
function.
* The default setting is "ON".
We recommend that you use the Digital TBC feature when...
... playing back a tape recorded on a camcorder.
... playing back a tape repeatedly used.
... using this video recorder as the player for editing.
ACTIVATE DIGITAL TBC/NR
1 Press DIGITAL TBC/NR so that the DIGITAL TBC/NR
indicator lights up.
c To turn off DIGITAL TBC/NR, press DIGITAL TBC/NR
again so that the indicator goes off.
NOTES:
c If you play back a tape recorded under poor TV reception
condition, there may be cases where the picture becomes
more stable with Digital TBC/NR set to off.
c When Digital TBC/NR is set to on, if you play back a tape
where certain types of signals are recorded (using a PC or
some character generators), the playback picture may be
distorted. If this is the case, turn off Digital TBC/NR.
the link for the manual is:-

The instruction wording is the same as with the 7965 and 8965.
Not sure about the digipure part, but as I understand that the 2mb is basic with a TBC.Cole -
DigiPure is the NR
Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)
FAQs: Best Blank Discs Best TBCs Best VCRs for capture Restore VHS -
"DigiPure" is the marketing term JVC uses in North America to describe the TBC/DNR processing feature in their video gear that has it. There is a 2MB buffer version, and a 4MB buffer version. The 7000 series VCR's that have TBC/DNR have the 2MB buffer. The 9000 series VCR's with TBC/DNR have the 4MB buffer.

Could someone please explain the difference between the 7965 and 8965 models.. They both look the same to me and I can't pick anything much different between their specs?

Oh yes, the AVI inputs at the front of the 8965 are gold plated, where the 7965's are not.
Hope that this is helpful.Cole -
That's sad. My 3800 is gold plated.
