i had one of those, was going to keep it until the player almost ate my disc.
also some things to look for, if you get an older player make sure it has the transit screw, i belie they stoped doing that around the mid 90s.
make sure you have flip, there is one here in nash at a pawn that will filp for 50.
so if you keep watching for players on the bay you will find one.
also you could get an industrial player that i think may be better than that 201.
others can correct me on that.

The Pioneer 2400 is an Industrial Player I believe and they are bulletproof, except for the one that I own where the laser needs to be adjusted, lol. You need about 50 bucks to get a decent player. The one I showed you is a good starter, I do not believe it flips though.

it all depends on how much you want to spend, industrial player would be cool, i had one once, not that model but still cool.

it all depends on what you are going to watch, how you are going to watch it and where.
for my TV series i kind of wish i had an industrial player so i would know what sides i need to watch next.

for films you should get flip but if you don't mind i don't think it's that big a deal.
but get one from mikey OR check on the bay and craigs, good solid players always come up cheap enough, great players are always expensive.

check on the bay for pioneer LD player or pioneer Laserdisc player.

this is a good one if it goes cheap. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pioneer-CLD-D50 ... 2ebd1b057e

don't know if it's in your range?
also check pawn shops, they sometimes have one.
i've been going to pawns for years and only ever saw 2.

and remember the older the player the heavier it is, the newer the lighter for shipping costs.
what about the one on craigslist, what that too much for your range now?

if you can get one cheap enough to start you out then do it, you can always upgrade later.

i live nowhere near a pawn shop,
my range is up to about $30 as of now.
im willing to pay like $50 when i get more money, maybe more.
the one on craigslist was to far away because of the price of gas. its under an hour drive, but thats like $20 worth of gas.

then that's not worth it.
unless you can meet somewhere but then you can't test it.
save up and get better rather than jump on the first one, unless you can get that one cheap!

You just have to look and you never know what you will find. I have gotten some amazing deals on craigs. I got a dvl 919 and a sony A2 for 100 bucks and they both work perfect.
