Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I'm selling a Sony SL-HF400 Suoer Beta HiFi VCR in good working order. My dad purchased it in 1985, and was used as an everyday time shifter up until '88, and occasionally played up until around 2002. I've used it to transfer some Betamax recordings, and it works beautifully. the only function I haven't tested is the recording, as I have no blank Beta tapes, but that's probably not a major issue in 2014. I'll take any good offer, and I'll throw in shipping if you aren't too far away (no international shipping). I also have it for auction on eBay, with bidding starting at $25, with pics:
