At the very least take it to a shop for a repair cost quotation /
estimate. .....
and instead of ordering belts, paying shipping, and waiting, most
service shops that reguarly service tape decks and VCRs with most
likely have the belts you need in their store stock.

I would second that. Although it's not a ' straightforward ' job in DIY
terms, when you do a lot of them, it is for a professional repair shop. I
can do one from taking out the first screw to writing out the bill, in about
a half hour, and I keep the belts in stock.
