But now, it plays awful, the speed is way off, and the pop top is stuck. The eject button doesn't work. I don't understand how as soon as I get it, it starts going downhill so dramatically. That all happened in the course of two years of light use.
That said, I absolutely love these old pop top VCR's and if anybody has one you want to get rid of, let me know. My most wanted is an RCA VBT200.

Or find a Panasonic PV-1000 which is identical internally, and the original manufacturer.
