That's because no one but you probably has a need for them.

I found a stack recently with some that were obviously used which I have been meaning to flip thru and see what's on them. If you were in So Cal I might be able to offer some moderately used but still excellent condition cassettes. Mostly 90's.

They get brittle with age as do videotapes for the old VCR's.

I just dumped about 20 VCR tapes yesterday into the recycle bin.

VHS is mostly junk though unless you have something rare/private (like a filmed event not broadcast).

In article <64f1c853-9b0c-4e7a...@googlegroups.com>,
I haven't dumped all the VHS here yet. Still have two T-180 in shrink wrap.
When I re-unboxed my only VCR I discovered that it would not play any tape. It's a Sears model from the early 1990's. It worked when I boxed it up after getting DVD/HDD recorders circa 2008.
