but they didn't create the VHS market, not by any measure. they just
jumped on the bandwagon.

Peter, I rarely disagree with you, but I disagree with you here.
Heritage did not create this market. VHS tapes were getting a lot
of money before HA ever entered the field.
HA is reactive, not creative. They saw a burgeoning market, and
they joined in to the hobby, because after all - they are a hobby
auction site, and there was already a lot of money on the table
the most valuable VHS is a disney Beauty & the Beast tape, which
sold for almost a quarter mil years before HA ever looked at VHS
collecting
that Youtube video is total bullshit
If HA was able to create a market as you think, then movie posters
would be going crazy, which we both know is not the case,
unfortunately.

Scott the reason some people are buying these is because heritage
is “creating” a market for them.
And people are stupid.

Surely not *all* VHS tapes are gaining in value.
If that’s really true perhaps it’s time for me to rethink my
plan to give them away to some youngster in a VHS Facebook
group rather than sitting them out with the trash. I have
boxes of the blasted things, including those that belonged to
my parents. Plus boxes of home-recorded VHS tapes dating back
to the very early 1980’s. And let’s not even mention the
boxes of Laserdiscs and LP’s…with a few cassettes and 45’s,
too. (Sorry no 8-tracks! 😊)
I can’t imagine why anyone would want old lousy picture
quality VHS tapes. Even harder to imagine is someone shelling
out much cash for them. There really is a sucker born….well
you know the rest.

posters are static in value, or worse, declining. it's a
small hobby, younger people don't really care, and much of
what more modern audiences want in posters are too cheap to
bother with.
on the other hand, vhs & video games are ascendant & the
auctions beat poster auction totals hands-down.
it's purely a money equation, that posters are dying, and vhs
are gaining

I've seen Buck Jones posters and owned Gloria Swanson
posters - I think I'd rather have the gaming
cartridges if we are looking at them as collectibles.

Glenn,
CGC is grading video cassettes.
Here is a link:

I am still suspect of them as a collectible, but
there are people out there with stupid money,
proven by some of the prices for Gaming cartridges.
A new generation…………who have never had the joy of
seeing a quality stone litho of a Columbia Buck
Jones poster or a Gloria Swanson from Paramount
Who am i kidding, they’ve never heard of Gloria
Swanson or Buck Jones.

Hello All -
I have a, still mostly sealed, VHS tape from the
original video release of BATMAN (1989). It was
the first tape released in LA at the Sunset Blvd
Tower Records location. There's way more to this
story but the point is...
*Where is the best place to get a VHS tape graded
and how much does it cost?*
Thanks in advance for your help.
Happy, Healthy and Successful New Year to all -
Glenn
