DVD player?

[Venusaur]

I need some advice on buying a DVD player. I'd prefer to get it from Best Buy since I have a few BB gift cards, but any place will do. About a year ago I got a very cheap $20 Coby DVD player, but it's horrible. DVDs skip all the time and the remote is crappy.

I don't need blu-ray or HDTV.

The remote must have an open/close button.

Any help appreciated, thanks!

Eject buttons on DVD player remotes are becoming extinct; that being said, it doesn't seem like you are looking for a top-of-the-line player anyways. I would start with the refurbished players and check their remotes at Best Buy. Personally, I'd just get an old Playstation 2, I used mine as a DVD player for years until I got a PS3.

Check out a thrift store for a nice used player.. Around $10 - $15..

Or a Pawn shop... they usually have some good deals. I buy almost all of my dvds from a pawn shop where i live because they are only $2 a piece and i search until i find movies that are practically brand new. I save a lot of money on movies this way.

We bought DVD players off of Ebay. The people had upgraded to Blu-Ray and there old players were very good and work well. Make sure that you check their rating.
