Anyways I was wondering what your thoughts were on this unit. Its a front loading unit with a see though window into the VCR on top. I'm assuming it will need the usual belts but other than that would this be a good reliable unit?

Sorry about there being no pictures and I didn't see the model number on it.

Sorry Levi! I think, it's priced too high. Offer $5.00 for it and that's being very generous, especially if it needs repair.
There's still a lot of those things around.
Regarding the reliability of it after repair, It depends on how much hard use it got. It was from the era, when a VCR was a novelty and the owners recorded anything and everything and used a lot of rental tapes.
