WTB: Need a cheap MiniDV camcorder with FireWire - Anyone willing to give me theirs?

[FOXMAN09]

Hey this may be a looooong shot but does anyone have a MiniDV camcorder with FIREWIRE they would be willing to sell for basically nothing? My AG DVC30 is basically retired but I may have to use it sometime down the road for who knows what. The firewire port burned out and the repair shop couldn't figure out how to fix it. So instead of dropping $1000 on a tape deck I just need another camcorder that exports through firewire. Some purists may poo poo on this method but it has worked for me nicely and honestly I may never use it unless I actually use my AG DVC30 again and need to capture the footage to my PC. Anyway, I'd pay for shipping, packaging, and your troubles basically but hopefully no more than $30. A few people on craigslist cannot bare to part with their video cameras for under $100 even though they are basically obsolete and will never sell those things. Sorry if I sound negative, its just silly to shell out $100 for a poor camera I'm only using for one part. If you live in the Dallas area we could skip the shipping process and just meet too! If anyone has an old camcorder layin around let me know!
