    Any large Tesco store with electronics should have them.

    I'd try the 1990's :D.
    There's also some place on dominick street that does vhs to dvd conversions, so maybe they could help you out. It's there where Hynes used to be, opposite Arabica.

    Yes but their stock (e.g. blank video tapes) need to clear first!

    I've seen em a couple of times in the 2 Euro shop. Could always pick up some cheap movies and record over them.

    got some lately in tesco, headford rd. and the euro shop in the same centre had them also:)

    All it takes is a bit of sticky tape over the hole in the bottom of a write protected cassette to turn it into a non write protected set.
    You can buy old movies literally for free and tape over em, even come with boxes then. Don;t be wasting money on expensive new tapes!

    Their "liquidation" sale has been going on for amount 2 months..... I can't see them closing down anytime soon. They surely must be getting in new stock! (maybe even new video tapes!) :pac:
