Help me find a cheap DVD Recorder

pinkmilkplease

I'm looking for a DVD recorder & would love to know how cheaply you can get these.
Tesco's & Argos have one for around £65, has anyone found anything cheaper than this?

Which has the Sony RDR-GX120 as a BEST BUY.
Excellent picture quality makes this Best Buy Sony model stand out. It’s great for watching a prerecorded movie and delivers great recordings in standard play.
They were not so impressed by the Long Play performance but hey! shop around and you can pick up the multi region version for £81 inc delivery.

I've just got one of these Technika DVDR2005, the unit is a rebadged Yamada 8400X DVD Recorder.
I think it was origionally sold by tesco but i got mine off Ebay for £31 delivered,you know,catalogue return type of trader.It turned up in perfect condition,plays divx and xvid and has a usb input which i have'nt tried yet as i don't have a flash stick.

Apparently the firmware may need to be upgraded(via cd-r i expect) then you can play files from a pen drive.

None listed at the moment but keep checking as they only seem to list 1 day auctions
Expect to pay £20-£25 + P+P

Hi,

I've got one of these and you can record from Sky no problem - just put SCART from sky into DVDR, Scart from DVDR into TV. Even better it has RGB passthrough which means that even with the DVD Recorded in standby you get full RGB picture quality from Sky.

I've taped lots of stuff from sky movies for the kids and it works very well.
