You could buy a new Beta HiFi (SL-HF360, 2000, or 2100) for anywhere from $300 
to $1200.  Then there's the used market where I've had quite a bit of luck.

Oh, and many Beta decks have CNT-L to solve the "compatibility" problems with 
Hi8/8mm alluded to in an earlier post.  These include the SL-HF750, 1000, 
2100, and EDV-9500 among others.
