I recently had to purchase some belts and idlers for cassette recorder spares.
They list spares kits and replacement pinch rollers for a lot of popular brands like Sony, Philips etc.
I ordered spares for Sony WM D6C and Philips DCC170, although they are in Serbia they charge in English include reasonable postage costs and delivered in 4 days.

I too have used them. Seems to take quite a while for parts to arrive for me, but they have always fitted perfectly and been of good quality.

I have recently bought replacement drive belts for two Sony Walkman cassette players from here.

They were good quality and delivered very quickly.

Yes, another good supplier that I can also vouch for. The only problem is they sell by model number; great if they have a kit to fit the model of course.

The OP's originally mentioned company does also allow you to order by size.

Ditto, I have used them. Highly recommended.
