Do you trip over a stack VHS tapes in the morning? Do you look through bins of old movies at the thrift store? Do you have a VCR connected to your CRT/HDTV? You're in the right place.

Went Out For Thanksgiving Errands.

My wife and I ran out to pick up some last minute Thanksgiving needs and I convinced her to let me stop at the thrift store while we were right there. Not sure she was expecting me to come back out to the car with a full bag of tapes. I left a few behind to avoid her judging eyes.

Pokemon 3 PR Box?

Found this at a yard sale this last summer. Have not been able to find anything anywhere on it. The VHS is a screening copy. And Meowth is a cup with a straw.

Will these satellite seperators work as regular RF splitters?

Just got them at the thrift store because they had a bunch of RF cables connected to the inputs. Also would the RF cables that were connected to these work for any RF connection or are there satellite specific RF cords?

Found a Treasure Trove of Smut

Drunkenly messaged a dude on Craigslist who said he had vintage VHS XXX Tapes to try and snag a few just to have some ridiculous stuff in the collection. Fully expected it too be sketchy as hell with the creepy cellphone photos of the cemented crawl space he had them in 😅 Turns out to be a extremely nice old couple with a beautiful house lol Said hi to the wife who said she was going to grab them pizza and I said I’m the guy here for the porn and she hits me with the most wholesome and excited “Good!”

Went in expecting a few, came out with 8 tots that were full 🤣 All in pristine condition with 90% of the with complete original boxes. Also two more totes if smut on Super 8 reels

Just wild

If any of you folks are interested please let me know and I’ll send photos🤣 I really don’t want all this.

Always stop your VHS tape instead of pausing

Or your tape will slowly deteriorate...

All the tapes I am keeping so far..

Some are turned down. Those will be cleaned with the VCR you can see at the bottom right of the photo.

Most of the moldy tapes are Star Trek movies, one of my Star Wars boxsets, and an Indiana Jones boxset, along with a few other tapes like Patriot Games and Raging Bull.

Any San Antonio hunting spot recommendations?

Visiting San Antonio with my girlfriend (her hometown) for a week and a half. I've been here a couple times already so the touristy shit has already been done lol

Hoping somebody can find it in their heart during this holiday season to give up some prime hunting spots during this holiday season?

Going to be doing the usual half Price books and goodwills but I love a good hole in the wall/Mom and Pop thrift store more than anything. You know the spot where you spend an hour digging through 40 milk crates of VHS tapes and then can feel the dust in the back of your throat for the rest of the day 😆

Detroit Area VHS Bros

I was just at the Value World on 10 Mile in Eastpointe. They just wheeled out a whole shopping cart full of VHS tapes. Pretty decent stuff from Animal House to kung fu.

Neighbor was ready to trash entire collection. This is barely a third of it.

Needed a wheelbarrow just for the ‘too potentially usable not to donate’ pile. I’ll probably have to make a video to capture the extent of the entire haul 🤓

Kill Bill Volumen 2 (La venganza) / Spanish / Español / Castellano

Estoy buscando una cinta VHS de Kill Bill Volumen 2 en Español/castellano. Si alguno la tuviese puedo pagársela a muy buen precio. (Actualmente estoy en mi momento mas nostálgico y es mi película favorita de cuando era un niño).

Muchas gracias comunidad!
