Are Disney VHS Tapes Worth Money?! This Debate Ends NOW!

We all like Disney movies, but come ON.

Disney VHS tapes have very little value, but certain VHS horror tapes do have value (Sometimes $50 to $150 each (based on SOLD prices I've seen on eBay, not just based on the unrealistic asking prices one sees from gullible sellers) depending on the title, but only for very rare titles) if they were released by companies like Wizard Video (Wizard Video had some of the coolest box art ever, hence, the collectability), Media, Vestron Video, New World Video, etc.

Even some Universal Monsters VHS tapes have some value, but a lot more common horror titles don't have much value if any. It all depends on the title, cult following, etc. and it's still risky to "invest" in these tapes in the long-term, so don't. :)

Yup, Disney VHS tapes are worth little to nothing. Aside from used tapes, I've bought SEALED "Black Diamond" Disney VHS tapes for 99 cents to $1.99 at the most from local thrift stores over and over again.

At best on eBay, I've seen some sealed Disney VHS tapes sell for $10 to maybe $20 at most, but that is very rare to see anyone pay that for an individual tape versus a single eBay lot containing several tapes in that lot and that won't be a lasting trend.

So, if you buy them, do so for nostalgia and because you love them, but don't "invest" in them because their value won't pay off in the long-run and VHS tapes have been known to go moldy too if stored in basements, garages, attics, barns, dungeons, etc. :)
