VCR and DVD recorder £200+VAT

Makro have advertised a VCR DVD recorder combi for £200+VAT (£35)

It seems a great deal as most others start in the region of £300.

The only problem is that it`s a Pye, and I cannot find any info on them.

Sorry, I haven`t got the model number. I just saw it on the back of the mother-in-law`s catalogue the other day!

They`re also doing a Pye VCR DVD player for £70+VAT.

Thats a name I havent heard in a long time.



If Mac users are "more intelligent than the average computer user," why do they need an operating system designed for complete idiots?

i`d imagine someones bought the the name to use with re-branded stuff, as rasilion says, pye is an old brand name, i`ve not seen anything from them since the early ninetys (sp) tho i could be wrong.

this sounds like the one they were selling on qvc last weekend as a todays special value
they had it for around £295 + p and p for 24 hours,but after that upto about £345 + p and p,but they did say that was the uk exclusive launch of that product so perhaps it isnt unless they got em out in the shops pretty quick

The model QVC was selling was the Daewoo DF 8150. My dad bought one to transfer all his War/military history VHS onto DVD, save on space.
I don`t know if its Multi region though.
