We'll make them pay
 
If anyone wants a very cheap multi-region dvd player, have a look at this player from Amazon.co.uk.

Crap make, but if your skint or want one for the kids. Free delivery as well.

Jeeesus .. that's cheap considering it's got a digital out and is multi-region, I was going to add AND IT'S A YAMAHA!!! But just noticed its "Yamada" :) Someone I know is looking for one for their kid so I'll let them know.

when i see good stuff like that i automatically think "there must be something wrong with it to sell it for that price"...

i guess my dad has conditioned me like that or something.

maybe the laser is the same dodgy one the ps2 dvd player uses...

I think Woolies are doing one for the same price or maby a tenner more.

YAMAHA are cheap and nasty. I used to own a keyboard made by them.

Last time I was in Argos (3 weeks ago) they have one for £37.50
How long before buy 3 dvd's get a free DVD player offers appear or you shake one out of your cornflakes in the morning...

Yamaha's top end equipment is second to none, check out their 'Motif' range of synths, the 'CG' range of acoustic guitars, the BB3000 bass guitar, in fact, just about any pro equipment they make is generally top quality. You seriously need to get your facts straight and not make childish generalisations.

ASDA's have a Schnieda 875 DVD player, it is really £57.97 but they are going for £38!

Excellent player!
