Was this worth saving?

I don't think these are real "collector's items" although they usually still work pretty well and are a lot more robust than later VCR's. I don't buy the VHS's unless they are the real old ones like with the knobs...generally I will pick up any Beta or 3/4" machines I come across to have a good amount of back-up machines to play these type tapes in the future.
