Apex makes one that goes for $129 at Wal-Mart here in the US. I know it plays DVD-R, not sure about VCD but I haven't seen an Apex standalone that doesn't. Maybe someone in the UK can tell you where to find the Apex there. :)

Try Index sale catalogue for one, £175 is the price as far as I remember, can't be sure of make but I think its Venturer. You might have a look at Richer sounds too, they have a few.

I saw one in my local Sainsbury's last week, I think it was about £100. It comes with a free copy of Nemo. HTH?

there is a new shop in the trafford centre that had a selection of portable dvd players, i think the shop was called gadgit, or something on the top floor.

you might wanna take a look as the prices seemed quite good

Hey m8, try Dixons. They have them from £150 - however I know someone that bought a goodmans(model:???67,from dixons) for £250 and it played everything!!!

Give it a try ! :rolleyes:
