If any youngsters are on here, have a look at how expensive vhs machines and movies were back in the 80s:eek: wow you had to be rich back then to afford these things..

Can you imagine a film on DVD today costing this much...:scream:

Is that real? 75 GBP for one film on video? Crazy. Especially that the british pound was worth a lot more back then.

How much was the Making Of Thriller homevideo back in 1984?
If that had a similar price... how on earth did that become a success?

I don't really remember my parents buying a lot of VHS tapes when I was a child back in the 80's and 90's because we just didn't have the money.
 
yeah they was very expensive. but anything that's new is expensive. even though they were i miss those days. michael knew what he was doing. back in the day you had to either rent or buy vhs. thriller was the most sales vhs. bless him.
