Hi. I'm a newbie, but thought this would be a good thread to start. I have a Philips VCR model number N1500, and would like to sell it on. I know nothing about it, but believe it is the first VCR. It has a tape with it, can anyone help me out.
Kind regards.

I did see one sell with about 50 tapes for about £350 although probably the buyers were bidding for the hope of finding some cool 70's programmes !

A non-working N1500 in that kind of condition - it looks quite good - that is complete would probably sell for about £100. The last one to sell on an auction site sold for £282, but personally I think that was a 'blip', I wouldn't expect one to fetch that much normally. But you never know, best of luck.
