So I wanted to get my hands on this “Elvis On Tour” VHS tape, right? Heard a lot about it, figured it was time to see what the fuss was all about. First thing I did was hop online, see where I could snag one.
Started browsing around, checking out the usual spots. Found a couple of listings, some going for 15 bucks, others up to 55. Seemed like a wide range, so I dug a bit deeper. Figured I could use one of those price guides to get an idea of what these things are actually worth, you know?
Looked into those price guides a bit.
- Turns out, they’re pretty handy for figuring out the value of old music stuff, especially Elvis memorabilia.
- Gave me a ballpark figure of what I should be expecting to pay.
Anyway, back to the hunt. Kept looking around, comparing prices and conditions. Ended up finding one that seemed like a decent deal. It was listed as “used” but in good shape, and the price was right in that sweet spot I was aiming for. Plus, free shipping! Can’t beat that.
Ordered the tape and it showed up a few days later. Popped it in the VCR – yeah, I still have one of those – and gave it a watch. Picture quality was surprisingly good for a VHS, especially one from the early 70s. Not bad at all, I have to say.
My Thoughts
It was cool seeing Elvis on stage, doing his thing. And they had these little behind-the-scenes bits too, which was neat. Showed a bit of what his life was like on tour. Definitely a different time, that’s for sure.
Honestly, it was a fun watch. I enjoyed it. Gave me a little glimpse into that whole Elvis craze. Now I get why people are into this stuff. It’s like a little time capsule, taking you back to a different era. This experience was totally a success!
