I have an old Beta porno tape. Wonder what that’s worth…

We gave containers full of vhs tapes sitting for decades in a storage unit.

Probably aren’t useable now.

My son-in-law found one (FleshDance) among my deceased wife's things. I did'nt even know she had it. Don't have it any more.

“I have an old Beta porno tape. Wonder what that’s worth…”

Nothing unless there is a Betamax player to go along with it. Then it’s worth about what a 15-year old kid who has too much time on his hands is willing to pay for it.

If Kate Bush’s single from the ‘80s is a hit again, you never know…

As a purveyor of Interesting things I would say it is rare at this moment to have a valuable vhs tape. They do exist though.

[McGruff]

Got any Hunter Biden videos. Could be worth alot.

[Hambone 1934]

Now they tell me...Tossed 500 VHS tapes a few years ago....

[Flick Lives]

I remember seeing one of the 1st VHS players at a car dealership. The player was top loading, like a giant cassette player. It was about the size of a writing desk.

“t a sealed, mint-condition “Star Wars” VHS tape from 1977”

I’m kinda skeptical that Star Wars was out on VHS in ‘77. Maybe my memory is off, but I remember it still playing in theaters well into ‘78.

> “Original VHS Stars” tape in packaging worth $57,600.

This is a situation which just invites fraud. Someone will make repackaged cassettes in looks-like original packaging. How could you tell if they were real without breaking the packaging and viewing?

If I were committing this fraud, the tape would just display:

“Don’t you realize opening the package and playing the tape destroys its value?”

Sometimes it is better not to know.

Establishing provenance is going to be tough. “Discovered in a musty basement” won’t cut it.

Pop it up on ebay. :)

(Don’t do that)

Wonder what my “The Ruling Class” VHS is worth?

I have several vintage Alice Cooper VHS tapes that are desirable.
Two rare BOC tapes, as well.
Don’t want to part with them, though.

I have a lot of out of print VHS tapes, really.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I have a couple of bootleg ones I bought at an open market in the UK. Only to find out later half the content was missing because someone filmed the movie w/in and theater and an usher went by. 😆

[FamiliarFace]

You said that out loud? Ugh. Ever hear of TMI dude?

[From The Deer Stand]

We have several Disneys before wokeness. Now those ought to be worth something.

[Born in 1950]

My ma gave me and my wife a crystal glass thing about 40 years ago. She took care to impress on us, in serious tones, that in time its value was near guaranteed to be in the tens of thousands of dollars. We should safe guard it.

Found it recently while cleaning out some junk. I'm guessing it cost her around $35.00. Dozens for sale on eBay, all about $6.00, lol.

For decades, I’ve held on to an unopened E.T. VHS. Can’t imagine it’s viewable but the box is pristine.

[MileHi]

Have the Civil War series. Not unopened, but unplayed.

[Organic Panic]

..how sticky is the tape???

[Sans-Culotte]

I still have a working VCR and tapes of thing i recorded or tapes I bought that were never released on disc. Still have a laserdisc player and some discs as well. But I threw most of my tapes and laserdiscs away. I know I dont have any unopened ones.
