Excuse me for the brain f_ _ t. Just noticed the manual is written in two languages.

They imported a few of them to the USA... 3 of them to Circuit City in Los Angeles. Not sure total USA numbers, though. The late Gary Inkman ("VCR Gary")had two PVM-4300s in his collection, and hopefully they're still floating around someplace safe.

Hope they stay safe in his collection or go to a serious collector who appreciates them. I have collected all things Sony since approximately 1961.

I was in touch with a nephew of his, about a year after Gary died, but there evidently was still a lot of confusion, and I haven't heard any further... That was about 5 or 6 years ago now.
