do people still buy tapes/cassingles?

i keep seeing these shits at thrifts and flea markets. new boxes everyday and usually much larger quantity. or do they have to be super raerer?

I see these at the trifts a lot. I will by the full length ones if they are good because I have a tape deck in the car, but cassingles suck unless they have some crazy remix I want.

My dad had some boxes he had bought in bulk back in the 90s that he unloaded for something like $15-30 each (I think) on ebay... a lot of those were no-names though

Goodwill's probably still charging a buck each on those so I think you'd lose money at that rate

One $ hint though: 2Pac.

Dude, you should sell some to my roomate. He buys quantity of random hip hop cassettes.

just went to music recyclery and went through a few boxes and found some dope tapes for the car...including that crucial pete rock jammy in the photo, ant banks, a nice boogie boy mixtape, beatnuts - intoxicated demons, soul coughing, etc.

still rock the cazzetts...cassingles not so much.

I put up some lots of cassettes on ebay a couple of months ago. The final bids broke down to about fifty cents to a dollar for hip hop cassettes, a dollar or two for old DJ mixtapes or rare groove tapes, and absolutely nothing for cassingles (there were some decent titles, too).
