Discounted DV Equipment

For those of you who missed our inventory clearance sale, we have a number of items left and some new inventory at great prices, including Canon XL1's, JVC SRVS10's, HRVS1U's and HRVS2U's, Panasonic AG-DVC10's, AG-DV1000's and AG-DV2000's. Many of these items are refurbished, demo or "B-Stock" items and are deeply discounted. Unlike some notorious newsgroup spammers, we always offer products "other than new" as exactly that.

Pricing on a Mini and Full Size DV is also reduced. Check out our online store for the absolute best pricing on all brands - Sony, Panasonic (consumer and pro), JVC, Fuji and Maxell.

We are also stocking Mini DV storage racks and the new Sima Mini DV rewinder - both also available in our online store along with Sony and Lenmar batteries and a variety of accessories.

Anyone still shooting S-VHS should also contact us for a great deal on an AG-456 or a super blowout on the 3-chip JVC GY-X3U, now on sale well below original dealer cost.

Equipment Blowouts, Travel Schedule

I wanted to let everyone know about all of our overstock and other specials, plus our travel schedule for those of you who like to do the show thang.

We will be at Videomaker East from July 25-27 at the Sheraton Meadowlands. We always look forward to this show and seeing all our friends from the NYC-NJ area.

Immediately following we will fly cross-country to exhibit at the first LA DV Show at the Burbank Hilton. Mindshare Ventures had their first show at the Manhattan Center earlier this year and this show promises to be equally successful. We will be in Burbank at the show on July 30-31.

For those of you not attending the shows we have a number of overstock and otherwise sale priced items in our webstore and a couple of closeouts on eBay. Currently we have drastic price reductions on:

All Macrosystems Avio New and B-stock units (Full warranty)
All JVC Mini DV / S-VHS decks
All Applied Magic Editors, closeout priced
Panasonic Internal and External DVD-R Recorders, including the DMR-T2020
Terapin Video CD Recorders
Pioneer A03 and A04 internal DVD-R Recorders
CD-R and DVD-R Media
Mini DV tapes starting at $2.69!
and much more....

Also, we have some of the last remaining inventory of the Canon GL-1. The $250 rebate has been extended through 7/31 so this is your LAST CHANCE to save on this unit. The GL2 will be quite a bit more expensive with NO REBATE, so call now before they're all gone!

Chris will be helping us out with our Varizoom setup in New Jersey before heading off to the Canon booth and slumming in OUR booth in LA so we hope to see you there!

hmm, still can't get in. I can't get into triggerstreet.com either. My provider, Adelphia has been flakey lately. Even have trouble getting my email in a timely manner.

I'll keep trying.

I get zgc and zotc though.

FWIW it did take awhile to pull up, on long distance dial-up from L.A.

Extremely Unhappy with Pro-Tape

This is my third dealing with Pro-Tape, and for the third time they have not failed to disappoint me.

I put in an order for 100 Fuji BT-15 (bulk tape) 33 days ago. You would think this would be a fairly standard order.

I called for an update 2 weeks after I placed the order - "the order was back-ordered - but was due the next day." I called 3 weeks after I placed the order - "we should be getting that order any day now."
33 days later, I have yet to receive the order.

This is the third time Pro-Tape has delayed a shipment for over a month for a product that was supposedly in stock.

Their customer service works in one direction. You have to call to find why your order hasn't arrived as promised.
Frankly, they suck, and I will never do business with them again.

Fuji tapes are easy to get in Canada, maybe even cheaper too. There's a good tape place here in Vancouver, I can't recall the link. Perhaps Bryan can post the link, or I'll find it later.

Pro Tape sent my order via UPS even after I requested and paid for Fed Ex (which they assured me they would use). Ended up paying a heck of a lot at the border as a result... They forgot an item, so I asked for it to be shipped promptly via Fed Ex, but again..UPS...

So I'm buying my tape stock elsewhere. I would also like that Vancouver link.

I didn't realize that pro-tape was one of our sponsors, so I cannot post that link (I suggested) here. I suggest to contact Chis Hurd about this problem. But if you do want the Vancouver link, I'll gladly give it to you via e-mail.
