I liked your comment about eBay. For the exact same reason Canadian Tire doesn't offer refunds on camping gear. One idiot would buy a tent and all the needed gear for his weekend at the campground, and then return it to the store on Monday's morning.

I worked with guy (he retired about 9 years ago now) who went to best buy, bought a video camera, took it on his holidays and returned it after he got home and copied the footage. He wasn't the only one to do that. I bought a video camera from the bargin bin at a big box store and it had someones european vacation still on the hard drive.

GREAT to see this one was repaired! I'm with you, eBay supports scammers, cheats, liars and idiots... I stopped selling for this very reason, I'm better off giving my stuff away than using eBay to find me scammers and then charge me a fee. What a design "one board wonder"

At least you got the item back. I had someone buy a SLV-R1000 and an SVO-2000. Opened a return stating they were defective. Only sent back the SLV-R1000 after they stole the mechanism and the video board out if it. Kept the SVO-2000.

I lost my EVW-300 to a scammer. 2700.00. That was the last time I used Ebay. Lets not go there, it hurts to think about it. That camera would look nice as a decoration in my living room.

@@12voltvids There's definitely plenty of horror stories. Luckily I document everything and filed a criminal complaint with the FBI internet crimes division. I also sued the buyer. eBay ended up reimbursing me when I provided them with the FBI report number, and the thief didn't bother showing up to court so I won a default judgement against him which resulted in his paycheck being garnished. It took over a year but I came out ahead.

@@NunYa953 No such luck here. Guy requested to return the item, I said go pound sand, all sales final, no refunds, no returns, no warranty. He filed a charge back. Fought it for over a year and he just disappeared. It was sold as a Canon 1/2" 19:1 F1.6 servo zoom lens with Sony EVW300 attatched. The camera worked, but by 2005 nobody wanted analog cameras. I had tried listing it many times without the lens and was going to sell the lens seperately. (the only thing worth money because lenses don't depreciate) I then figured I would sell it as a lens with a camera attached. Numbnuts wanted the lens for his 2/3" betacam. Remember I sold it as a 1/2" lens, as that is what the EVW300 had, 3x 1/2" chips. Numbnuts mounts the lens on his camera and naturally there is dark corners because dumbnuts is too stupid to understand lens geometry. Like that is my fault. I had Ebay telling me that all they could do was provide me with names of companies that for a fee would help me get my property back. I contacted a few, and they were happy to take a deposit from me and then responded that they were unable to find the person. So that was rubbing salt into an open wound. Lost about 2700.00 after all the smoke cleared. As I said never again. Once bitten, well in my case I was bitten twice. I have heard other horror stories from many others.

@@12voltvids Yes!! I fixed it. It was that single 1000uf cap in the power section. Then I noticed some issues with the loading mechanism, ie, it would load a tape, wind the tape around the drum, act like it was playing it, then try to eject. It was stuck in a loop of trying to play, then trying to eject but not actually ejecting, then it would try over again without me touching anything. Then I remembered something you had mentioned about the sensors being affected by light. I turned off the bright shop light I was using and it started working. I think it was getting confused about what to do with the tape Now I need to try to fix my Samsung SV-300 (not 3000!) which is also dead but I don't see any obvious culprits inside. Thanks for the videos. It gave me confidence to do it myself!!

If ebay allows the return they've always refunded fees for me, you do lose out on shipping most of the time as you said. I've sold a few thousand items and have not been scammed yet. But, I don't sell many consumer items, mostly industrial stuff.
@12voltvids3 жыл бұрын
I lost shipping both ways and no they did not refund the fees. I figure it cost me about 150.00 because the goof that shipped it back to me sent it fed ex, and you know how fed ex is with their broker charges. I used to sell tons of stuff, mostly a production I did in 1997. I made an original DVD that I sold literally thousands of copies at 9.95 plus 5.00 shipping. It was a 2 title disk, set to auto loop. One was the Vancouver Aquarium tropical fish, and the second title was the one that everyone puts on at xmas. Good old Fire log. I probably sold over the period of 6 years 10000 copies. Shipped about 10 copies a week from the post office in Pt Roberts Wa (where the postage was cheap). Shipped them as media mail which was about 2 bucks back then, cost of the mailer and DVD production costs just under 3. So the shipping charge covered the cost of production and shipping and the 9.95 was pure profit. Sales were great until about 2005 and then this web site called youtube threw a wrench into my game plan. Nobody wanted DVDs anymore. They just wanted to watch it online.

Not only the motion clarity is better but the picture quality looks better too, the AIWA seemed to over sharpen the picture. SECAM always looks weird to me, even when converting from SECAM to PAL which basically has a different colour encoding but the field rate is the same so in theory should produce a better picture but it still looks bad, SECAM always looks over saturated and fuzzy to me.

Which cap is that, can you tell from the video? I have this exact machine and one of the caps blew today with a big column of smoke (I already had the cover open.) It was one of those big ones in the same area he was working on. Mine was having similar issues to the one in this video so I may have a go at fixing it instead of spending a couple hundred at the local repair shop.
