The first three Rocky movies are beloved, but how much are original factory-sealed copies on VHS worth in 2023? Things are worth what people pay for them, and someone has bought Rocky 1-3 on VHS, paying more than $50,000 for the collection.
As reported by The New York Times, the original Rocky sold for $27,500, Rocky II went for $12,500, and Rocky III was sold for $13,750 through a Heritage Auctions listing in February. Together, they sold for $53,750.
The seller was Jay Carlson, a collector who acquired the videos from a man who made a time capsule for his son, who was born in 1982. The buyer remains a mystery, but the person certainly has deep pockets.
