Kind of a joke few would get. For a period of time in the late 80’s into the early 90’s it was very hard to get a german made VCR. Odering them straight from there wasn’t really a option. You could only get them at high cost unless you knew someone in the military over there. They would go to the local PX, buy one and ship it home. It was good way to make really good quality copies.
