Hi, I'm following an auction and I'd like to know which one of these three devices you suggest me to buy to digitize VHS-C tapes.
Panasonic NV-HS1000, JVC HR-S7611EU or JVC HR-S7600?
Are they the best or do you know any better VCRs? I'd like to have the best possible video quality.
Thank you everyone!

eBay is a mistake, and can be quite costly mistake in Europe. Don't waste you time on somebody's broken crap. It's neither "tested" nor "working" as claimed. I recently tested this myself, and 85% was junk, and that last 15% was not great. Just pitiful, mostly liars and idiots.
If you're in Italy/Spain/etc, buy directly from VCRshop instead. VCRshop isn't quite to my standards (the refurb work I do for others with NTSC decks, rarely PAL), but he's better than most others (PAL or NTSC). He gets my confidence, and that's not easy to earn.
Exact model (of the recommended S-VHS VCRs with line TBC) doesn't matter as much as condition. To put it in crass terms, all 3 models of VCR there are hot women -- but 1 is married with kids, 1 has an STD, and the other is fine. Your job is to figure out which is which. Which deck is best here? That means communication with the seller, and hoping he/she/it doesn't lie (sadly common).

So I suppose they are all three equivalents, if in great condition. Thank you, now I need to figure out which one is fine

If possible check first in the nearby thriftstore, i just scored a good working dvd/hdd recorder DMR-EH49 here,
for 7,50 euro, which would cost 129,- euro, (no stock at the moment) at VCRSHOP, you should regulary check, VCRSHOP does ask some money, but do give service is being told.
for the low prices at the thriftshops, you can try some vcr's, the thriftshop here has also a good return policy.

Also don't forget the remote that belongs with the device, but there are also websites that sell replacement remotes for about 16 euro that have the full functionallity, that's a small price to pay, or first check the remotes for the remotes of the same brand you already have, it's good to collect, and have options
