Just pulled in a huge haul of 115 vhs at less than a quarter a piece since my whole shopping list which included books, clothes and misc. All came to $16. I'll post pics tomorrow. A ton of b movie horror and classics. Definitely a good day.

I went back today and picked up around 30 VHS, and a Voice of Music reel to reel that I'm messing around with right now. I found a copy of Star Trek 6,7, and 9 (and 2 more copies of Wrath of Kahn). So now I'm just missing 5 and 10. I need 5 to complete my set that shows the picture of the enterprise. I have some episodes of the original series and next generation on VHS, but I'm nowhere near a complete set of either. If you combined what I have on VHS, DVD, and CED, I probably have about 2/3 of the original series.

I think my picture set is complete. I'll check today. I know I have all the movies. Half of next generation. Several of original series and all of the ones they released on ced. No dvds though. I don't buy much of those. Right now I have about 80 dvds. Mostly anime, horror, and comedy.

The other day I finally got THE GOONIES (1985) recorded off analogue cable! (Cinemax - 1986)
Oh my its goregous...... On its official VHS tape its been DIGITALLY PROCESSED and doesnt look or sound as good..... Even the Japanese release is!! (I think the videodisc is the only analog release not digitally altered) It looks thin and disgusting......... Audio crappy...... Hearing the straight analog audio from Cinemax on analogue cable is amazing!! The pic is good also... It has depth and is just gorgeous! I also got THE BREAKFAST CLUB (1985) recorded from HBO (26/12/86) Audio is goregous on it also.... That movie is MONO and I dont think the official MCA tape is... It doesnt sound as good or warm @ all..... and the picture sucks.... Its flat looking and just disgusting! I also got BREAKDOWN - 1997 on VHS

I walked out of a thrift store this morning with a cart load of VHS: 28 Star Trek original series tapes with 2 episodes/tape, 6 Twilight Zone original series tapes with 4 episodes/tape, Star Wars boxed sets, a few James Bonds, some Three Stooges...

This is an ancient thread, but I recently received what looks like a brand new VHS-tape of "The Big Mouth" with Jerry Lewis (1967) from Amazon, being it's not available on DVD. It doesn't just look NOS, it looks brand new. I don't know who is still making these.

I went back to that same thrift store today and saw they put out some more of those Star Treks, some next generation too. Now I'm only 9 episodes away from having all of the original series on VHS. They come from two different sets though. Some of mine are these ones in larger silver cases with 2 episodes/tape (these are the ones I just picked up), and some are in smaller black cases with 1 episode/tape.
They didn't have any more Twilight Zones, but I already had a complete set of those (all 5 seasons on VHS). But I did get some more James Bonds, two blank VHS tapes still sealed, an unopened copy of Star Trek 9, a copy of Star Trek III on betamax, and some records the highlights of which were a nice copy of Herb Alpert's Whipped Cream, and one of those K-Tel disco albums.

Those ratty K-Tel records are short versions of the hit records. They cut off the song before it's completely finished. I never was much of a Trekie. I think I saw one complete episode. Now, the Sopranos is my kind of series.

Pewaukee and Waukesha sometimes have a few tapes on the shelves, but most of it is DVD...VHS decks have reduced to a trickle too. Odds are most tape donations corresponded with the glut of decks that recently died down...Folks probably dumped their decks and tapes at the same time and now that most folks don't have tape or decks anymore most have vanished.
