it looks to me like partstore.com is slowly going out of the cassette parts business. i am not able to order parts that were available several months ago not to mention and increase in price and shipping. turhtableneedles seems to be making an effort to fill the void but there listings are very incomplete and sometimes just plain wrong. it's a sad state of affairs when you can't even order the proper belt for a very common player. i hope they get there house in order as parts store looks to be selling off most of there remaining stock.

Partsstore is getting bad, they claim they have the parts then backorder it or cancel your order days later, I stop using them.

i believe you have it nailed down 100%. one wm-10 belt will now cost about 4.95+12.95 = more than i am willing to pay. that is really simple math...

Even user manuals are getting hard to find for cassette players before 1990-eg. Sony's support site doesn't have a WM-10 user manual.
