Thoughts on VHS prices and grading?

(1/3) > >>

bigmike:
Looking at the recent HA auction results and upcoming auctions. Just curious what your thoughts are on these crazy high prices for VHS tapes? Alongside with now grading them?? Any explanations or what do you guys think of it?

eatbrie:
No explanation.  Just pure stupidity.  On my part too.  During my last move, I threw out about 2,000 DVDs and VHSs.  It filled up an entire trash container.  I didn’t even know I had them until I found them and didn’t think twice about it. 

I also have a roll of blank paper used to print Star Wars posters.  Just completely white sheets.  Near mint.  Awesome!!!!!  Wait until I send it to Prop Store.  I’m going to make a fortune.

Were they all factory sealed?
Every high price I see is for sealed tapes.

bigmike:
Yes sealed. But bidding over $10k?

Please tell me that you at least donated them, and didn't actually send them into a garbage truck to be destroyed??
