The title shamelessly says nothing, so before you click the link, I will give you a hint. It will take you do an ebay search which will display the prices of some VHS Tapes.

I am curious if you have any theories why people think they are worth so much as to ask such prices?

a few years ago, the mob started laundering their money that way - online 'pretend' sales,

like they used to do thru savings and loans, etc .....

also some business, unscrupulous, may inflate the price/ apparent value/ of their stock/ inventory that way so they appear to be millionaire companies

instead of penny-ante....

and many have collected bogus insurance payments from thousands to millions of dollars that way,

or gained some other fake advantage in bankruptcy and so forth - typical american ingenuity.

it is my understanding that Disney put this movie in the vault and it is not available for purchase for any price.   These are some that people purchased and have kept to resale....   I can't imagine someone paying that kind of price for it.....

Just business peep....   no different than the prices that people get for old cars.....   but those are the asking prices, if they do sell them, I would wager it would be for a lot less.

Nope I do not agree. Greed is the motive.There is such thing as honesty,character and integrity.

Well them I guess you'd better never sell anything, because the only reason to sell something is "greed" after all.

It's fair market value. If I had one and someone offered me 100,000 for it, ID take it. I got bills to pay. It's not greed its common sense.

God NEVER said the reason to work or to sell anything is greed.

He did say greed is the root of all evil....

It was the reason the rich young man walked away sad.....

And it keeps many multitudes from ever seeing the kingdom of God......
