These days we seem to stream all of our movies, but there is definitely s soft spot for the way things used to be.

Or it could just be that we are all old enough for VHS tapes to be considered timeless, collectible relics now.


Either way, you may want to dig through your closet to see if you have any old tapes tucked away, because they could make you a very, wealthy person.

A VHS tape of the 1984 movie The Terminator recently sold at an auction for a whopping $32,500! Now the tape was in almost PERFECT condition, receiving a 9 out of 10 for its preservation and a 7 out of 10 for the tape's corners and edges.

But still, $32,500!

According to Consequence.net, an executive at Comic Connect said the tape sold in three days, and that there's been an increase in VHS purchases over the past few years.
