I wonder if the guys will get any buyers.....

Its sad to see someone take advantage of something like this BUT ITS GOOD TO NOT SEE THEM NOT UNDERVALUE IT!! (Sell it for $1 like it means nothing)

Analog media is beautiful :)

This is a relisted item, the seller failed to get $1000 the first time.

If you do, offer them a quarter for it. You might as well make all you can. Best I ever done with a VHS tape was when I found 2 sealed copies of Voyage of the Rock Aliens at Goodwill for .80 cents each. IIRC, I got $40 for one and $25 for the other.

Last Summer I picked up a copy of Animalympics for 50 cents while "Yard Saleling" I've noticed this little bugger sells for $28.00 up on the Big River. I once saw a news magazine show that had a segment on Yard/Garage Shows, They warned viewers to beware of people who prowl around looking for collectors items that people don't know are such item. Their "Horror Story" was somebody who put out a "Spartan Sword, Helmet and Shield" for sale. The owners thought they were props from a show. Turned out they were the real deal, each item was worth more than his house! Lucky for them the buyer had a guilty conscious and returned and told them what they really were.

OH Nuts!

I'd NEVER spend that kind of money for a single VHS ...or DVD for that matter. $50 would be the highest I'd ever go for either. But if you have megabucks &/or are an avid collector then getting something like this might be worth it. But I'm not a fanatical collector...so if it isn't a great bargain ai usually just skip it.

I love the maltese falcon! (I have 1 of the first 1981 releases (Paid about $40 for it))
