I have a small collection of these that are taking up space (from summer 2001 to 2002, about 6 or 7 tapes). I'm dubbing them over to DVDs to preserve them, but I'm wondering if there's any actual value to them at all. They're mostly a curiosity to me, seeing how those things were put together at the time, etc.
If they're interesting enough to keep as a part of a collection, I may do so, but otherwise I don't know.
Thoughts?

I have some of those old Gamestop tapes(from the mid 2000's) as well as some old Sony PS1/PS2 vhs tapes. They don't seem to go for more than $5-$10 a tape, just like the old Nintendo vhs tapes for Snes and N64 games.

I have one that Kept Hitting me in the face....What I mean by that is I keep putting it in places to keep it out,yet sell it and never get around to it..Now I stuck it someplace trying to organize ebay stuff and UGHHHH I can't remember where I put it..lol
It came in the VCR TV combo that is next to my computer today..
It's also my Test TV..for testing gams.
The TV was picked up next to a dumpster by Gamestop many years ago by my uncle dumpster diving..
It's the one BHS tape I don't forget as I watch the TV daily.
Craziness with the TV is..
it didn't come with a remote..No matter what remote I have tried to program to it will only lower it's volume or change the channel..it won't turn the TV on or off..
The VHS part doesn't work right,I guess that's why they chucked it..but the tapes good..

I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to be able to purchase as much of the video tapes as possible! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send me prices if they are not already sold, I have been looking for these old video tapes for ages.
