This.

Or this.

Or that.

Or the fact that you bought "rare" VHS tapes that literally no one has any use for anymore...

You're basically a flag, not even a human, a literal red flag posting on this board...

I am beside myself with laughter.

I wonder if there's a huge lot of mint condition 8 tracks that can be listed as ultra rare and not made anymore?

Why comics can be valuable: Your eyes will be capable of reading them until you die.

Why VHS tapes are worthless: DVDs. Blu-rays. 4K.

And don't try the "first printing" argument, because that would be the actual film delivered to theaters.

What? How many do you want? How much are you paying for them?

And, most importantly, why the would anybody want one unless they have a bunch of rare/obscure content that hasn't been released in a much better format?

Are you for real? People donate them to resale shops all the time. I can go to the shop by me and get a dozen of them for probably $10 bucks a piece. Facebooks local classifieds would bring up another dozen in my area. Almost every other garage sale has one for sale.

There is a small market for them for people who are trying to convert their personal tapes to a digital format. But once they are done converting, they are not much use.

They will get harder and harder to find over time. I feel sorry for people who had VHS collections in the 1980s and 1990s-- walls full of original boxed movies just completely wasted money. I have about 50 myself that I've tried to off load (used to have them listed on the old ebay site Half.com and actually did sell a handful there of some super obscure titles).

VHS tapes are as dead as they come-- unlike something like Vinyl recordings that have some people sort of interested. It was a great technology for its time but has zero advantages is playback to any other medium. Trash.

I solved the problem of why Swarmi loves old Disney VHS :

No clue why you guys always trolling I am actually looking out for steals and deals and comics with value I just found rare comics on a Facebook listing which to the naked eye might seen worthless or a  drek comic but I do believe these have value because it's one of a kind. You normally dont see these types of vintage comics . I might scoop these up 

 

Which one is more valuable meteor man or kool aid man ?  Kool aid is still popular dont think meteor man is really a thing anymore

What Swami meant was VHS means: Very Honest Speculator

And Doc you meant: Valuable Comic Re-seller 

See you're both right Swami has his hand on the pulse of the Drek comic market, only it seems to be dead and no one told him.

 

P.S Along with his VHS tapes. By the way Swami I have for sale a great little investment of a fixer upper if your interested please PM me.

Definitely buy the Meteor Man!

I hear they are gonna make a Meteor Man Cinematic Universe centered around him like The MCU did with Iron Man!

Also that copy of MM 1 looks in CGC 9.8 shape for sure! 

 

[Cozmo-One]

Sweet, I have one of those! (original owner, my mom sent away for it). If I still had my Chase the Chuckwagon Atari 2600 game, I could sell both and probably retire

I've been told by a reliable source  that even the actor who played the part never got a copy, here's your chance to strike Swami sell it to him at a premium.
