FOR SALE OR TRADE????
We have a large collection of CEDs (512) Titles and a RCA player in good
working condition.  We aquired this collection from a friend who was too sick
to deal with it any longer.  We didn't know anything about it until we found a
website dedicated to CEDs.  This collection is not alphabetized, rather we
arranged it catagorically.
We have old black & whites...Marilyn Monroe, Humprey Bogart, John Wayne + etc.
A collection of childrens titles....The Fairy Tale Theatre, approx 14 titles.
Music Videos- Michael Jackson's Thriller..
Adult Videos - Caligula, etc.
We don't know what price to ask for this collection- especially considering
the shipping costs to other parts of the Country, but we are willing to
consider all offers.
A COOL TRADE??!!   
Anyone interested can contact us at our email address JRosen5581@aol.com.

Subject: How do you set up a CED player to a new TV?

I've tried just setting up a cable between the video output for the CED
machine to the video input to my TV.  And it plays but every other
second there is a video disturbance with red and green lines appearing
making the pictury wavy.  Am I supposed to be setting it up a different
way? Help would be appreciated thanks.

My theory is that the discs are the major cause of the skiping. Due to 
changes in their surface and track characteristics as they age.......I 
believe it was this skipping that some reliability engineer discovered..... 
and the potential liability it posed that caused RCA  to remove the product 
from the market. I have examined some skippers....up close....and it looked 
like the plastic was changing color/texture. The fact that discs that 
didn't skip and then did ....on two different players makes me suspect the 
media.Although one seems to be able to "adjust/fix" the player to stop/slow 
skiping those discs come back soon as skippers. Comments?
I've never seen a business specific P & L on ced's. Is one available?

There are 2 RCA 090 models for sale at flea markets near me....
One is on sale for $20.00 and the other is $50.00..... If anyone is
interested in either of these, they could try to email me and I could
try to get them for them... They would have to pay shipping and handling
so I don't know how I could work this out... 

If you live anywhere near the state of Missouri, The $20 player is
located at the Barnhart Flea Market in Barnhart Indiana under a pile
of electronic equipment in the middle of the main building.... Obviously
the loading belt is broken and taped to the outside of the case...

The $50 player is located at a place Called Kohler City Flea Market
located across the street from the Barnhart Flea Market in Barnhart,MO...
There are also some movies there for sale at $5.00 each.... I thought
$5.00 is a little extreme due to my finding movies for $1 and $3 elsewhere....

Dave.

Looking for a source on the stylus....Fox Intl. prices seem really high.
