Yes,that is correct.  In the 90 day warranty they would just send them a 
new VCR, after that they must send the old one  along with $29.95 and 
recieve a new VCR. One of my customers ended up with 3 VCR's, none of 
which worked.  Today you can buy a new VCR for $29.95, almost.  The 
VRB411 was a MK9 mechanism and the parts were certainly available for 
the combis which used the same mechanism.  The prism part number is 
4825-402-97838.  Chek to see if this prism has the 2 fingers that extend 
forward to hold part of the clutch.  (if not let me know).  Sorry, I do 
not have the Funai part number.  John.
