This is a rare 1980 General Motors training laserdisc. It trains car salesmen to share their propaganda...er, marketing materials that compared the protection plans of autos of that day. 

These laserdiscs are a must for any collector looking to own a rare and unique item that isn’t present in many people’s collections.


Nowadays, car dealership training is pretty high tech and mostly done via the magic of the internet. But there was a time when dealer employees were watching videos recorded by automakers on things like VHS tapes and LaserDiscs, which was the case with this laserdisc that touts the compact car’s many fancy, high-tech attributes.


This vintage Laserdiscs is a true blast from the past. Not only do they provide a glut of images and clips of the company’s old school lineup, but they also do well to outline what made those vehicles special and interesting, while also providing fascinating and in-depth look at how dealers prepared to move the cars. 


Companies would use these laserdiscs at dealers in large “learning centers” topped with televisions to display the video, and the Laserdisc player placed underneath the screen. Certain discs were used to help in employee training, giving a rundown of all the important info and points to hit for the sales team, while customer would be shown videos to help drive home exactly what each vehicle had to offer.

I try to find the best balance between speed, reliability, and cost effectiveness, but the reality is it costs money to magically move a physical product across the Earth. So, in most instances I will use First Class Mail. Heavier items will be shipped Priority. Or I’ll use Media if a TPB or a larger magazine.

Handling Time

QUICK SHIPPING!! I try hard to get stuff out the door quickly and into the hands of Ken, my friendly and trusted mailman. 


International Buyers

I do all business under the GSP. You can read more about it in the Terms & Agreements with eBay. Currently this is the safest, and most efficient way to do global shipping, despite the additional time and fees. 


Questions?

Feel free to message me. I will do my best to provide you with the best possible outcome. And I’m always happy to exchange dad jokes. 


All grading and/or views on condition are my opinion. I am not a professional grader, I’m just someone with 40+ years of experience with comics. 


Search up Nerds on Earth on the World Wide Web if you have a moment. The website has lots of great content on comics, D&D, GI Joe, hobby board gaming, and so much more. If you are a Nerd, you’ll enjoy it! 


You can search up the same on YouTube as well. I do frequent comic book “unboxing” videos and you can get a great look at some beautiful comic book covers. If you aren’t sure you’ve found the correct channel, I’m the Nerd with the orange beard.
