FDS Belts, OOS and expensive to boot?


Recommended Posts

I recently scored a really nice condition (almost new looking) Sharp Twin Famicom. The seller had only Famicom carts and said he had never tried the disk drive but "thinks it works".

 

Well, of course it doesn't and I am pretty certain it is a belt issue. I have not cracked this open as I don't want to have pieces all over without obtaining the necessary belt first in order to replace when I get in there.

 

But I can't find them. Console5 is out of stock:

And, why the heck would a belt be $5? For one? I just fixed a few VCR's with a 50 pack of belts purchased on Amazon and that 50 pack was $7. 

 

Is there an alternate belt someone can recommend? Or better yet, a pack of belts for a reasonable price so I am stocked for the future?
