Its a business, they will grade anything for a buck, also good for them they just drop these into the same sleeves they would drop LPs in, so no loss from the company.
I can buy a damn gold bar for the amount that is being asked. There is no freaking way that a mass produced item like a VHS can cost this much just because it was put in an acrylic case.

There's a pretty good chance the guy who brought those in is part of the scam. It happened with the videogame episode.
So far only a few dummies fell for the scam (assuming some are not fake purchases to try to create a trend):
The Batman one is especially weird because the cover is graded at 8 but you can clearly see it has bents and creases, it would be a 6~7 at most on LDDb. They can't even grade properly.

Nearly all of them listed by https://rainierconsignment.com/ (eBay), they handle grading + listing + shipping, pay the eBay fees + take their cut (26.5%+$5).
People dump their collections for $1/LD and they try to smell which one could trigger FOMO on eBay to flip them quickly?
