So my wife points me to this site...which talks about a recent discovery made by Wizard Video of 36 ORIGINAL big box VHS covers that were lost for 33 years which are now being re-released with newly created tapes. They are signed by the main guy from Wizard and include titles like "I Spit on Your Grave", "Zombie", and "Oasis of the Zombie". You may buy them individually or "subscribe" for 3 tri-monthly installments of $600...well crazy me, I thought the $600 price tag was total, so, long story short, I am now looking for a second job...LOL... |

I read about this a while back. As much as I'd love those, that price tag is way too ridiculous for me.

On the plus side you could probably split them up and make money on them on E-Bay if you could find the right collectors. Those would be awesome to have, but way out of my price range.

No VHS is worth $50 a pop. Just no.

Actually VHS has recently started becoming VERY collectible as a way to get movies that were never available on DVD. Especially the grind house type stuff. So show some love!!  |

I still have a lot of my VHS. I love the format. But I'm not willing to spend big bucks on old bricks. I do love my Disney clamshell collection.

DeathByApocalypse you and Joey Idol would get along great. He hasn't been by in a while but I'm sure when he is he'll notice your posts.

We all love the old horror stuff on VHS. I still have a VCR just for my old tapes, and when I worked full time if I saw one cheap on E-Bay I'd get it just to have a backup.
But, Joey is insane about them, lol. In a good way.

If you can get to him, he has tons of stuff for sale for pretty reasonable prices.
