I understand, I lost a coworker suddenly last month. Tomorrow isn't promised, and sometimes you need to take time to grieve or grapple with whatever life throws at you.

I just wanted to update this post...
Theogen, karlswagan, amvoith, lateralus: Thanks, loss can be hard to deal with, and time is always needed to process. Not just emotionally, but the many tasks you now have to face.
To others reading, all backlogs have been dealt with.
And at the moment, only a handful of TBCs are left. (The world of TBCs is currently an arid desert.)

I'm looking around for an NTSC TBC. When you get info on those NTSC DataVideo models, could you please PM me, lordsmurf?

Just checking in to see if you have an estimate when the rest of your shipments might get done or where I am on the waiting list. Thanks.

@Chupperson, TBC sent, enjoy!
@pkntl, PM me.
After a long dry spell, several months, I have several TBCs again. Due to health, TBC refurbs took longer than normal, in the back half of this year. But all are finished now, units ready to go. Anybody owed a TBC has gotten theirs, or is getting soon.
And I have a few left!
Remember, this isn't some random eBay crap in random condition, that won't work correctly, as sold by some random person (often some recycler) that doesn't know a TBC from a toaster. Refurb'ing and even rebuilding takes time and skill. My goal has always been to grant these devices a second wind, to last another decade or more. And so far, to my knowledge, since 2016, it's been happening. And I'm quite proud of that.

I'm looking for a TBC that can handle circuit bends in a live video performance scenario. Would the blue DataVideo produce desirable results (No drops, smooth interpolation)? Currently using a Videotronics MX1 and looking for something smaller.

If you're patient, I'll have something for this, PM me to be put on wait list.
The blue is somewhat more hit-or-miss, hence only a TBC(ish), not 100% reliable TBC, and priced as such, but still way better than the MX-1.

Hi, I am looking to purchase a premium workflow set up to transfer VHS tapes. I have a Mac studio and edit with Davinci resolve. I could use some guidance.

No, a clone is not a knockoff, or a fake, or anything of the sort.
The AVT-8710 is actually a badged Cypress unit. Not "rebadged", as it was designed for badging (white labeling) to other brands. But other Cypress units exist, using the same or similar chips/boards. (But there's also many Cypress units that are different, and not at all desired, so beware!)
Since the AVT-8710 is well known (along with the TBC-1000), and the green vs. black issues are documented, it's vastly easier to refer to these similar units as "clones" (green clones, black clones). Because it's too much info for newbies to digest, and often an info overload to even more seasoned users.

Please add my name to the waiting list for a good TBC. By the way, does anyone here have a unit which he or she might rent to me for a month or two? Thanks for your help.

Listing updated.
Have a few nice items again.
All gear backlogs clear, or soon to be clear. (PM/email if you need an update.)

Hi all, I just wanted to publicly thank lordsmurf for my recent purchases and to reassure other buyers here that you are in very safe hands here with this gentleman. I bought a Cypress GL TBC and a Pinnacle 710 USB capture card which as you all know, do not come cheap. Lordsmurf's packing was excellent, double boxed, bubble wrapped and sent with expedited UPS which made for a quick and safe delivery. Both units are in superb condition and work perfectly, infact I digitised my first VHS tape within hours of receipt. It was a REAL pleasure doing business with you Sir! I love your work!
