Huh. That's funny...becasuse I bought my DVD Rewinder from a guy in a white van, too...and I couldn't be happier. It does exactly what was promised...and was a great deal! The guy said something about getting one too many in a shipment...
Me and some classmates--under the tutelage of Science teacher Mr. Philips--tried to develop the ultimate DVD rewinder back in high school. We were trying to work something similar to what Mark described earlier in the thread (about dual rewinders for flippers and longer, dual-layer DVDs) but...
I'm surprised the DVD Rewinder developers haven't yet made one that looks like a Cadillac. Based on the shape of this unit, maybe they could look more like the flying saucers from Plan 9 from Outer Space.
Who hasn't suffered this embarassment? Frankly, there's no way to avoid it when...
I had one which worked great for awhile...but after a few months it really bogged down and was especially slow in rewinding dual-layer discs. But :emoji_thumbsup: to the company for being responsive to a disappointed customer and replacing the unit!
