What to do with VHS?

[MontyVeda]

Still got a cupboard full after all these years... I'm guessing they're a huge burden on the charity shops, so the question is, what to do with 'em?

 

[Kempstonian]

I burnt the ones I wanted to keep onto DVDs.

 

[Smudge]

Not sure if they can recycle black plastic.

 

[DCLane]

Charity shops won't want them, just go to landfill.

Keep ... you never know!

 

[Kempstonian]

You could always phone the Council and ask what you're supposed to do with them.

 

[Slick]

I voted keep.

I had to borrow an old vcr from work to enjoy another's collection of years and years of football classics most of them just taped of the telly.

Marvellous collection that included old skol cup finals, old firm classics and European adventures including the battle of Britain clash. I loved watching them over an extended period and it was class seeing Scotsport back on the box and listening to the dulcet tones of the legendary Arthur Montford.

Surly worth a bit of cash to someone eventually.

 

[Markymark]

Hide them in a tree in the forest for the next generation.

 

[Cycleops]

I burnt the ones I wanted to keep onto DVDs.

And I burnt the ones I didn't want to keep .

I struggled to find a charity shop 7 years ago who would take them....

Local charity shop is doing 4 Dvds for a quid now... So dvds are going the same way

 

[Kempstonian]

And I burnt the ones I didn't want to keep .

Ummmm.... that's what I meant to say!

 

[Kempstonian]

I was thinking more about what was on them, rather than the VHS tapes themselves

 

[Slioch]

Keep the porno ones, and give the rest to the charity shop. Make sure you get this right

Archie Gemmill scoring against Holland in 1978 springs to mind...

 

[pjd57]

CDs and DVDs are going the same way.
