Do CLD players play movies?

I'm looking to buy a laserdisc player and ebay lists"CLD".

You know, I have to wonder why Pit is obsessed with this site. It’s gonna ruin his life!

CLD is the brand name of a type of laserdisc player.

[up]Ah. I recognize Pioneer as the manufacturer, but didn't think that CLD was the brand.

I was aware that CLV and CAV were the two types of discs that a laserdisc player could play.

http://www.laserdiscarchive.co.uk/laserdisc_archive/pioneer/pioneer_cld-d925/cld-d925.htm is the site for the model of Laser Disc player you may be referring to. It's made by Pioneer, and it's old-school Pioneer to boot, which means if it works at all, it will work pretty darned well indeed. Hope this helps.

[up] I think I found a model I like right now:

the CLD-M90 Laserdisc/5 CD player.

Only problem is shipping...I can get the base money in enough time, but shipping cost I'm going to have to rely on my mom and have to pay her back.

I think I'd go for the "Buy it Now" price (does that override all bids on eBay? I've never used eBay so I don't know how it works. I also don't know if there is a way for me to ask the seller to see if it comes with the proper video and audio cables.

If you Buy it Now, no other bid can beat you.

It's a legal contract. If the seller takes a higher bid after the auction's over, they've opened themselves to all sorts of problems.

There should be a "contact the seller" button on the listing page somewhere, which allows you to send the seller a message about the item.

[up]The only thing I'm seeing is the "Questions/Answer" section of the page...is that the same as "contact the seller"?

I have ordered the M90 Laserdisc player/Five disc CD changer (haven't had a 5 disc CD changer since I was in elementary school)!

I have asked the seller to include the following movies along with the proper audio/video cables needed to hook up the player (this might be the challenge when the thing arrives):

  • Back to the Future Part I
  • Independence Day
  • Jurassic Park
  • The Lion King
  • Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Among other discs, the seller also had:

  • Die Hard
  • Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
  • Batman Returns
  • Back to the Future Part II
  • Raiders of the Lost Ark
  • The Last Crusade
  • Pinocchio
  • Hook!
  • Titanic
  • The Terminator
  • Beauty and the Beast
  • The Princess Bride
  • Sword in the Stone
  • Pulp Fiction
  • Mrs Doubtfire
  • Land Before Time
  • Godfather
  • Fantasia
  • Dances With Wolves
  • Blade Runner
  • Bambi
  • All Dogs Go To Heaven
  • 101 Dalmatians
