amherstprep Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Anyone looking at the portable DVD players? Which one are you planning to buy? I'm stuck between the bogo portables at BestBuy or a larger screen model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redjacket97 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm planning to buy the one from Target. It's made by Kawasaki and has a 9" screen. $139. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christypl Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm getting the $89 one at Sears. It will be going with my brother to Iraq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicholali Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm looking for one too. Does anyone know the brand of the one at Kohl's? It's 99.99 after $30 mail-in rebate, and includes 10 free rentals. Plus, Kohl's is offering $10 for every $50 in purchases. So if it's a decent brand, I might go with that one. Thoughts?

Cindlu Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I am going for the 7" Insignia at BB for $69 AR on BF Right now it is $119 w/ 2DVDs. I checked it out yesterday at BB and I liked it. I saw the BF 3.5 Axion 2 for $99 stocked on the shelf but not on display. BB would not not open pkg to show it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cami_reardon Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I bought an Apex one last year for one of the DS. He's 18 now so not a youngster and took good care of it. It broke about two months ago. I'd like to replace it for him but now I'm gunshy of buying another one. Good luck with your purchase! I hope you do better than I did.

jjlam Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 After looking and comparing at all the ones that are out there, I'm going with the 7" Craig one @ Toys R Us for 99.99, that one even comes with a free 19.99 or less DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krissy72 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I think I will go with the one from Sears for 89.99. With the $10 gc it'll only be 79.99. Hope I'm one of the first 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laffnatu Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I'm getting the $89 one at Sears. It will be going with my brother to IraqHubby bought one before he left for Iraq. He uses it all the time. You will also need to get a dvd recorder so you can record all his favorite shows and send them to him. That's what I do and hubby and his friends love it! They said it is just good to even see commercials from home. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuckertiger Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I am wondering do any of these dvd players let you plug your playstation unit into them so kids can play while in the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc82769 Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 I tried to get one from Kohls last year and they were gone. I was there about 4 minutes after the store opened. If you go there get there very early. I already bought the one at toys r us for 119.00 with a free dvd. 99.00 is a good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirleyb Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 We bought 2 of the Kawasaki units from Target last year (8" screen) for $169 and they have been great, work like a charm and they get a lot of use in my house. Shirley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threelittlecupcakes Posted November 21, 2005 Share Posted November 21, 2005 We are planning on the Target Kawasaki 9" one for $139. Does anyone know if any portable dvd players have 2 vs 1 headphone jack? We need something for the little ones to do while we are watching the older one at her bb tourneys - can be a long day for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mommie2one Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 How is the one for $68 at Walmart? Not the dual but the 6.2" screen. Good or bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emptynest-2 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I bought the double screen from Walmart. You can hook a video game up to one screen while the other one is watching a dvd. Also has remote and dual sound. Pretty nice. The dvd is separate from the screens which is what I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motoXmom Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 All I know is that we bought a Mintek before and it sucked. We didn't have the thing a year and it broke. Isn't this the same kind Kohls had last year? If so it bites! I would never ever buy another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stacy2197 Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I'm pretty sure the one from Target has two headphone jacks. I bought three of them last weekend. I of course will bring back the reciets for a price match on friday. I also got 10 % off for oppening a new charge acount. The lady at the counter said when I come back for my price match I shoud get the full discount of the differnce of prices before the 10% off. So my total should be about 123.00 each.

Has anyone had experience with either brand? Thanks In Advance!I work at TRU and we have never had the Craig brought back with any problems. Just whatever you do don't buy the Teen Tech DVD player we sell it is a piece of you know what. Just a little note on our electronics return policy: You have 45 days to return it unopened w/ a receipt, if it has been opened we will give you the exact same thing. We also sell what we call Buyer Protection Plans they are plans that cover the product if anything goes wrong w/ it for a year after the manufacturer's warrenty ends. For the dvd player you want it would only be $8.99 extra so ask your cashier about it if you want it. Sorry for rambling.Hope this helps.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
