Allen Tellis is the founder of WatchRoster, an AI-powered movie valuation platform dedicated to tracking resale data and collector trends across VHS, DVD, and Blu-ray markets.
With a background in digital growth strategy and large-scale search infrastructure, Allen built WatchRoster to solve a growing problem in the collector community: there was no centralized, structured, data-driven resource for tracking the true resale value of physical media.
Through WatchRoster, Allen analyzes thousands of secondary market sales, including verified sold listings, format variations, condition tiers, and out-of-print releases. The platform aggregates valuation signals to help collectors understand scarcity, demand shifts, and long-term collectible appreciation trends.
Research Focus
- •Rare and out-of-print Blu-rays
- •Horror VHS resale trends
- •Boutique label value appreciation
- •Disney Black Diamond VHS myths vs. reality
- •Physical media scarcity economics
- •Collector behavior patterns across resale marketplaces
Allen regularly studies pricing fluctuations across resale platforms and tracks how genre, packaging, condition, and limited production runs impact collector value.
WatchRoster was created to bring transparency, structure, and credibility to physical media valuation.
