I'm not sure where to ask. I got this in a trade with a DP member.

Ranma 1/2
Tough Cookies
For Screening Purposes Only
Not for Resale or Rental

Not sure what kind of value this has. I don't see any completed listings for this on ebay.

Pretty much nothing, honestly. All of those are already available on DVD.

I know Ranma's on DVD, but this has a "Not for resale or rental" mark on it. It also has those kinds of watermarks at certain intervals (like every 10 minutes) on the video that say for screening purposes only.

Like I said... pretty much nothing.

Would you pay money for a version of a movie that has that annoying "NOT FOR SALE OR RENTAL" line on the screen every ten minutes? :p

What Kitsune said. There's very little demand for Screening Tapes unless it's OOP. Even then, it likely won't go for any more than the retail version anyway.

No more than $3 and that's if you find the right person. I come across screening tapes at thrift stores more often than you think, I just pass on them.

they are generally only valuable if they weren't released on that format comerically or more importantly if theres any differnt info on them, is the episode(s) edited unedited compared to the usual version? then you might have something interesting. (fairly common with early cartoons like ranma dbz or the like)
