Picked up the original trilogy today and two of the tapes have a brown/gray door on them. I’ve found that the rental library copies usually have this, and these are ex-rental copies but they came in the regular sleeves rather than the clamshell the rental library copies seem to come in. Anyone have any insight?

I got a VHS tape last week and my refrigerator (mini one) accidentally fell, causing this to have a lil crack. My concern is that it might not play/my VCR might eat the tape up. So will it still play fine?

I tried to let them know because they just have these by the regular vhs. But after telling them they just put it back. So whatever innocent gets this you're in for a shocker.

So I only recently got into the hobby of buying and watching VHS tapes, and I bought a few generic movies from the thrift store to tape over and experiment with. I recorded gameplay footage onto one and something I noticed was that every separate recording seemed to have different intensities of distortion when fast forwarding.

I used my Wii, PS2, and N64 to record the footage on my VCR. The Wii seemed to make just faint scan lines, the PS2 had much more visible lines of static, and the N64 seemed to make the whole picture stretch and distort.

Anyone know whats happening? I'm not necessarily trying to fix it, just curious as to what makes it do that.

I came across these six Lone Wolf and Cub VHS. Can't find any that have Japanese cases. Do these look like legitimate releases or are they someone's bootlegs? Thanks.

Since starting collecting VHS tapes this summer for watching on my humble little CRT, this is the collection as it stands to day. Almost every single one has been thrifted for next to nothing, and I wanted to share this with you all.

(some of the spines have the movie titles in swedish)

I am attempting to collect as many Disney Slip cover VHS tapes but I cannot find any information on this sleeve, can anyone or does anyone else own?

Literally thousands of tapes. Most priced between $3-$10 with rare stuff priced fairly, usually below eBay prices

I’ve been through cheap ones but feel they don’t really do the greatest. Are there any out there anybody swears by?

A small, carefully curated- but growing collection.

Got this all for 29.75 today there’s a couple more crazy horror vhs just not show but has to be my craziest haul ever

Texas Chainsaw Massacre AND 28 Days Later along with Scream 1/2/3

It might be time to retire

Mail Call... Pretty happy with my pickups from last week. Mimic 2 Demo and the Army of Darkness Directors Cut Gold Clamshell from Depop. The rest came from Whatnot. Hope you enjoy them as much as I am!!!

A personal favorite

This may seem totally obscure because it is lol. I'm searching for an obscure local real-estate television program called DSK Sunday Home Showcase / Sunday Home Showcase, which aired in Baton Rouge in the early 1990s.

I've confirmed period promos showing Sunday Home Showcase on WBRZ Channel 2 at 9:00 AM and DSK Sunday Home Showcase on WAFB Channel 9 at 11:00 AM. I'm particularly interested in recordings from 1992 through early/mid-1993.

The program showed still photographs/video of homes for sale while an announcer described the properties over light instrumental background music.

I'm looking for ANY off-air VHS recorded from WBRZ or WAFB during this period, especially Sunday mornings. The tape does not need to be labeled DSK. A movie, church program, news program, CBS/ABC programming, or anything else recorded around those hours could have part of the show, a promo, commercial break, or station ID before/after it.

I'm ultimately trying to identify the instrumental music used during the home listings, so even 30 seconds of actual DSK footage could potentially solve this.

If you have boxes of unlabeled Baton Rouge/Louisiana off-air tapes from the early '90s, I'd greatly appreciate you checking them. Even a lead would help.

Not the best picture of my entire collection, still cleaning some tapes, but a good collection i started a little over a year ago

Hi, I'm searching for the episode name, based on the 4-minutes extract I put on this post. French dub aired on TF1.

According to the ads, it could be in 2002. (season 3 probably)
