The old VHS tapes now worth a fortune

Can anybody else remember a time when we had to sit for hours rewinding VHS tapes just to watch a film from the beginning?

Long before we had DVD’s and HD televisions. But how many of you still have old video tapes lying around in your house? I know I have boxes full up in the loft gathering dust.

Well now might be a good time to dig them out. Especially if you’re in need of some extra cash. You could even get up to £1,500 if you have the right tapes.

An expert has revealed the top ten VHS tapes to look out for and how much they are now worth.

Will Thomas, managing director at LoveAntiques.com, revealed these are the titles that’ll fetch you the most money:
