However, the TV part of the product ‘emulates the CRT effect,’ which means it doesn’t use an actual CRT.

    I’m surprised it’s that cheap. I doubt they will sell many of them. They have to cover the cost of all the tooling required to build the VHS players. They are fairly complex and have a lot of moving parts. It’s been about a decade since anyone made a VHS player. Unless they got lucky and found the tooling sitting in a warehouse somewhere, they would have to build it all.
