and is your opinion based on any sound knowledge of the potential of this machine.. is it based on years of exstensive field tests..
or is it just based on the fact that you would not pay this amount...
how much do elmo transvideos go for in the states..maybe 3 times the price of this unit...and i tell you it is not 3 times better....
i shoot and sometimes i score

Apparently you are the seller of this this thing which you advertised here (for free).

Instead of lecturing others you better start answering your PM's which you requested here before. Why post questions or offerings when you are to lazy to answer.

You have some one way manners on this forum.
Kind regards,

Who cares what it "Was" in 1978....Look at what it "Is" now.

What it is--Is outdated outmoded technology. Selling for what someone was willing to pay for it. Whether they made a wise buying choice is a whole new story.

Good Luck

Are you refering to this "miracle offer" I forgot about, but was just reminded of:

Whatever happened to this thing offered back in April? Did anybody here get any film?
