Here’s a fun one for you all! 🍎 We’ve been hard at work on this amazing Richard Scarry collaboration that just fills up our little, nostalgic hearts to the brim. Cameras, photo clips, photo albums, film, a slip mat… there’s a little something for everyone. Out today!!

Don’t miss our 20% off sitewide sale! We usually do a vintage drop every Friday at noon, but this week we are taking a breather to catch up on some other awesome stuff coming through the pipeline. Get all past drop items at 20% off for a limited time.

Labor Day sales are conceptually kind of strange, but we did one last year for the first time and it was a really amazing boost for our team as we head into our busiest season.

For our cassette and VHS lovers, we have been restocking both formats nearly every day this week! There is a “Recent Restocks” link in the top menu of each collection on the site which is a great way to check on what’s new.

Thanks everyone who has supported us over the years! Have an amazing weekend! Don’t forget to chuck your phone in a drawer and touch some grass (or retro tech) ✨

Disney released Halloweentown High on VHS in September of 2005, which is considered a very late release in VHS-world. This tape in particular seems to have circulated in remarkably small numbers.

Original copies have become something of a white whale among Disney Channel Original Movie and VHS collectors. They surface infrequently enough that there really is no sales/comp history available.

Well, the VHS gods blessed us and we recently came across one. 🎃📼 (AND IT’S NOT A BOOT)

It’s an original 2005 Walt Disney Home Entertainment release (catalog #40124), complete with its wonderfully purple slipcase. We’re currently debating what to do with it. Sell it? Keep it in the Retrospekt archive? Put it on a tiny pedestal and admire it every October?

TBD. But we would consider serious offers if this is your white whale.
