I went to Goodwill in Charlottesville, VA last summer and found a VHS tape of Prefontaine.
I bought it, seeing that it was only a dollar fifty, figuring it would be worth something.
Yes, no, maybe so?
I posted this a second time, because I got the name and subject mixed up, sorry.
I would guess it's worth about $1.50, at least to you, since that's what you paid. To others, it's not worth anything because it's VHS and completely obsolete. To the Goodwill, it was worth less than $1.50, otherwise the price would have been higher.
So, if I had to put a value range on it, it would be roughly $0.25 - $1.75
How much will you pay for shipping?
Come on, it's the demo!
It has all the clips that the director didn't want audiences to see, doesn't that intrigue you?
P.S. VHS players are not obsolete, you can find them at Goodwill.
You need to tell us WHAT exactly is ON the tape, Einstein.

It has Pre getting acquainted with Marylin Monroe, working out with Bruce Lee, and playing drums for spinal tap.
To be honest, I don't think I could sit through Prefontaine more than once.
My roommate bought the DVD about a month ago.
We watched it to get some motivation, and it is some of the worst acting I have ever seen.
The cover is slightly different.
Jared Leto's caught at a different point in his stride, making him look more fatigued and vulnerable.
So you haven't watched it yet?
If so, the chances are that instead of having missing scenes and such, it instead will just scroll the following across the screen every 5-10 minutes:
"This video is demonstration video and not for retail sale. Reproduction of this video is prohibitted by law."
or something very close to that.
good point, I'll watch it and get back to you.Any offers yet?

Ill trade you straight up for my VHS tape of the movie 'Running' with Michael Douglas. Inspiring, realistic and downright exciting.
it is a amateur tape that someone shot of Prefontaine running around Eugene neighborhood in July 15, 1982
Yes, PRE is still alive!
Did they even have VHS in the time of Pre?

No, the director didn't want us to see them, so WE DON'T TO SEE THEM! The director is as close to God as humanly possible, so be it.
Yeah I thought they had beta max or something. I never had anything besides a VCR, except for a device used solely for rewinding.
