I found 2 VHS camcorders at a downsizing auction. This is the first one:


RCA Solid State VHS camcorder video recorder in it's original RCA hard case, with labeled sections for all the accessories.


This recorder has a new in box telephoto lens. I'm certain it's never been used or installed.


This camcorder was dusty and smelly. I'm certain the person who owned it smoked at one time. I don't and it was strong.


I thoroughly cleaned the case, inside and out and wiped down the entire recorder and all accessories with a scent diffuser spray and clean water.


I can't guarantee you won't still be able to smell it, but I want to be honest about its vintage condition.


Other than that smell, it's in great condition. It's clear it wasn't used often. Although the rubber around the viewfinder is dented due to being put away improperly at some point, it's still pliable and soft. No cracks.


The body of the recorder is in remarkable condition, which shows minimal use.


I took photos from every angle of it packed up, unpacked, inside the hard case and every edge of the outside of the hard case.


Please view all of the photos for details from every angle and feel free to ask any questions!


I understand the shipping is high, and absolutely am willing to accommodate local pickup. I'm in Northeast Iowa, 3 hours from Minneapolis, 5 hours from Chicago. 5 hours from Kansas City.


It is heavy. I will ship it as cheaply as I can, USPS ground advantage. But it flat out weighs nearly 30 lb in its case.


Thanks for reading! And I hope that this finds the collector who will respect it to the story to its former use. I appreciate the return to physical media and I hope this camcorder finds a new home.
