[Want to Buy] Pre-recorded VHS tapes- not just TMNT!

*pannoni1* · 05-18-2014, 10:13 PM

My household grew up with a bunch of VHS tapes, both personal videos and also some pre-recorded ones used to tape off of the TV. Well, I got a VHS to DVD converter last Christmas and have used it to convert numerous videos not just to DVD, but to upload digitally. I've found a few made-for-TV movies, an episode of Who's The Boss? that hasn't been released on DVD, an Oprah episode from the first season in 1987, a few cartoons on HBO (remember when they aired some), a personal family trip to Vegas from 1994, a couple rock/pop concerts on the Disney Channel back when it was a pay channel, many classic commercials, a couple VHS tapes recorded in Japan, and even occasional adult content. I tend to look for stuff made before 2000 since I'm nostalgic the most by far for the '80s and '90s, afterwards its just too modern feeling save for a select few things. I've picked up a few at a recent yard sale, and sometimes find these for sale on eBay. Mostly what I find are a bunch of movies recorded off of them, and way too often its either off of a pay TV channel meaning no cool stuff, the commercials aren't recorded, or is just too new for me. I do tend to find about one good tape for every three or so.

That said, if anybody here has a bunch of prerecorded VHS tapes with TV shows or movies/w commercials or possibly the late news following, please PM me (I use PayPal), especially if either before 2000 or is TMNT related (4kids or earlier). I'd love to find some with local promos for the Fred Wolf or 4kids series, with the edited USA Cartoon Express versions high on my want list due to both the bumpers and to see what got edited.

In addition, if you have any personal home videos involving TMNT and would like to get a transfer to DVD, please PM for an offer.

I used to have a TON of stuff from growing up but most of it has disappeared. Youtube has most of this lost stuff and a million different old commercials from the 80's and 90's.

I used to have nearly every TMNT episode taped from tv, including some USA edited ones, but I gave my tapes away on here years ago. There were about 20 to 25 tapes. I still have a tape of some TMNT commercials, bumpers, etc. but no VCR to play it in. If I remember right that tape has a ton of "the Next Mutation" promos and bumpers too.
