ALONG with our original Harry Potter books and beloved Polly Pocket sets, our collection of Disney VHS tapes have got to be among our most prized (and nostalgic) possessions.
But even though we’ve held onto them for all this time, it appears that our old videos could be worth a small fortune – and we wouldn’t part with them for anything less tbh.
This collection of 10 ‘rare Black Diamond’ tapes are being sold for £14,000[/caption]
That’s right, a set of 10 original Disney video tapes are currently being flogged on eBay for just shy of £14,000.
Including classics such as Robin Hood, Cinderella, Aladdin and Beauty & The Beast, this impressive collection also boasts the lesser-known (yet equally iconic) The Great Mouse Detective and The Rescuers: Down Under.
But before you turn your nose up at the prospect of someone trying to swindle £14,000 for their old videos, this isn’t exactly an uncommon price on eBay.
This particular collection are part of the “rare Black Diamond tapes” which were released by Disney between 1984 and 1993.

This Little Mermaid VHS is being flogged for over £7,500[/caption]
Unsure as to whether you have your own “diamond tapes” at home? Well you can easily spot the special edition thanks to “The Classics” logo in the upper spine of the case which has a black diamond round the outside.
What’s more, an original Beauty & The Beast VHS is currently on sale for £8,000 on the bidding site while a Little Mermaid video is also being flogged for a further £7,500.
And it goes without saying that each of these VHS cassettes are in tip-top condition and don’t have any of those fuzzy scenes ours have from years of overuse.
In other words, you can find us hunting round the attic for our old videos for the forseeable future.

And your old Polly Pocket set could now be worth over £1,420.
