Trying to help out a friend.

Anyone know where I can get a VHS-C to VHS adapter locally? Just point me in the right direction.

Honestly Ebay would be your best bet I'm thinking

Yeah, 1000's on eBay, but I thought there'd be some small Asian store out there with weird shit like that lying around.

There's an electronics store on Victoria Drive...it's somewhere between 33rd & 41st ave. Sorry I'm not very specific, but I haven't passed by there for a while.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I also recall seeing an audio/video shop in Parker Place that sells all kinds of weird electronics stuff or was that Crystal Mall.........

I looked for the shop on Victoria Drive. Couldn't find it. Almost got into an accident. Anyway, went to Parker PLace and sure enough, the guy had it. It's the shop next to the car accessory place. The dude shows me the adapter and it's like 29.95! I said what? How come so expensive?

Dude goes (in broken English), "To everyone else, it is garbage. To people who want it, it is $29.95." I said, "eBay is like 15 bucks shipped. How about 20 bucks?" he says, "25." I said no thanks and started walking out. Just as I reached the door, he says, "OK, 20 bucks." I love dealing with old Asian guys. So much fun.

When I get home to open up the package, there's another price tag on the back that reads $24.95, LOL.

Looks like they would have it, too. I have one now, but if I need another one, I'll go there. Thanks.
