This time we have a great Sony SLC40 Betamax in great condition and includes a rather nice remote control too. Really not seen too much use in it's life but it does need some TLC and a few 'house keeping' bits and pieces done.

Really hope you enjoyed this one and lots more to come including for a short while, some extra videos on top of the Saturday scheduled ones so maybe click for notifications and subscribe too so you don't miss any.
