Hello, I am looking at a CED player and 50 ish discs for $50 on Marketplace, I an interested in the format and have a small laserdisc collection, I know CEDs are lower resolution and most discs only have mono audio but I like oddball stuff like that. The seller did not mention if anything works but replacement belts seem fairly inexpensive though a replacement sytlus is pretty spendy if needed. Any advice you could give would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Might I ask imports from where?

    I myself at this point buy mostly Japanese LDs, for a variety of reasons. The jacket artwork is often cooler, the manufacturing quality seems higher, and they’re usually in mint condition.

      I’ll start a thread over there but mainly Japan. They do love the format over there. I’d be interested in Hong Kong horror films but even they are coming from Japan or via the US.

      More common stuff (still Japanese releases but of American movies) is available here in the UK reasonably cheaply.
