Something in this?

Why the hell are people dishing out tons of money for these:

Philips Magnavox MWD2206A DVD Player VCR VHS Tape Recorder Combo Deck 053818570159 | eBay

Is there a gold circuit board or something in them?

Maybe they just want a dvd player that records from vhs?

You know the old saying about a fool and his money, they are soon parted. Trust me, there is no pot of gold in it. Just goes to show that one man's trash is an others treasure.

Yeah must be the transferring vhs to dvd i thought it was just a straight player, but i still see people paying up for vhs players and crap on ebay. I see this kind of stuff posted for free so often it's hard for me to believe people pay close to full price for this kind of stuff. Since I've become more of a scrapper, junker and frugal person, I tend to balk at buying most things new or at full price.

that unit does not transfer from vhs to dvd as the dvd drive is not a writer.

I believe it will, however, transfer VHS, from Analog, to Digital ; )

I dunno, was just a guess. I know those buggers brand new run a pretty penny. One I have I got as scrap.

I never use it tho..lol..unless my DVR is broken. Even then I just log on an watch what I want through Netflix an other sites I use.

I agree with TRB..folks will drop money on just about anything.
