This seller has very good prices and negotiated when I made a bulk purchase. There was initially an issue with the quantity shipped, but they were able to resolve it after working together. I really appreciate the seller s willingness to make things right. Highly recommend buying from them. Hope to do business again in the future!
Reply from: deenri8- Feedback replied by seller deenri8.- Feedback replied by seller deenri8.
The buyer claimed units were missing despite shipping the total quantity in five boxes, each labeled with the total amount. When asked how they received them, the buyer didn't respond, only asked for IMEI numbers. Given the low cost per unit ($8), it's uncommon business practice to request such details. We offered to resend the "missing units," but received no reply

    Didn't meet VERY specific expectation.

    This is a good camera, and I may have been expecting it to do more than it was capable of. I edited tapes, employing PCM audio, on a professional linear editor, the Sony EVO-9700. I was hoping the TRV-230, being digital, could play back the PCM audio I had edited; it did not. The camcorder plays ambient audio properly, but maybe there is something I did wrong in editing which prevented a PCM playback.

  • Great

    Great camera -- better than many newer cameras with digital hard drives as it can record up to an hour or more without changing a tape. It is still digital -- just recorded on digital tape. I like the fact that it has microphone and headphone jacks. Often the built-in mike picks up too much street noise, so a microphone will help a lot when recording in noisy situations (when you want to hear only the speaker). The camera I first had for seven years about. Took a lot of abuse and kept on working. After dropping it, I needed a replacement and bought a used one which works fine.

  • Great all around camera !

    This is a great cameral overall, and has pretty much every feature a normal video operator could ask for. Never had anything but success. The Odigital format this camera provides is definitely the way to go, and having the tapes as well makes it good because on the go you don't have to worry about a full hard drive or expensive memory sticks, you just pop in another tape.

  • Replacement SONY DCR TRV230 Camcorder

    I have a similar model that is no longer operational. The cost to repair the camcorder would exceed it's value. Therefore, I purchased the SONY DCR TRV230 camcorder to play the video tapes I have previoulsy recorded and to transfer the contents to DVDs. I have used the purchased camcorder and it functions accordingly. Hopefully, the new camcorder will not encounter the problems I had with my old camcorder.

  • Saved my memories

    Thank you for selling me this camera It came in very good condition... I have been transferring my Hi 8 tapes Without any problem... no price on restoring my memories... forever greatful...
