Found a 1990s VCR repair shop still open in a strip mall near me
Honestly, I was driving through Mesa and saw this tiny place called 'Video Fix-It' with a neon sign. Walked in and the guy had a whole wall of just VCR heads and belts, plus a stack of about fifty old camcorders waiting for work. He told me he still gets three or four VCRs a week from people with old home tapes. Has anyone else seen a shop like this hanging on, or is this the last one in Arizona?

Last one in Arizona" is a stretch lol. There's definitely still one over in Tucson that fixes old Betamax players too.

My brother actually dragged me to that Tucson place last year when his 1980s VCR ate a tape of our family vacation. The guy there fixed it in like 20 minutes and charged us fifteen bucks. I felt so useless standing there with my phone in my hand watching him work on something older than me. Meanwhile I can't even pair my Bluetooth speaker half the time without watching a YouTube tutorial. Maybe I should ask him if he takes on broken humans too. Anyone else feel like your tech skills are just surface level?
