Query: Bad, bad machine

I bought this VCR about a year ago. And for about 3 months it worked perfectly. Great picture, easy to use, easy setup, good playback.But, then it started being funny about accepting tapes. I have to insert the tape just right, or it gets spit right back out. And, it is getting progressively worse. I have to try about 20 times to get a tape in now. Once the tape is in, it works fine, of course! Ugh.
