Great to see all these cassettes again which are definitely all from the 1970s as I used to have quite a few of them my (almost) youth back then. As a rule of thumb the cassettes with the pale buff shells were from the early 70s and the black shells from the late 70s. If you want a web site which gives more definitive dates search for 'vintage cassettes' (RUclips won't let me put a proper link). I would think the person(s) who owned these would now be in their late 60s or early 70s as most of the music comes from the early 1970s and the later ones might indicate their tastes had 'matured' to easy listening by the 1980s. The Multivision ones could possibly be from a TV rental shop as people in the 1970s couldn't always afford to buy TVs which were often unreliable. Often these shops had their own brand products. I remember the Agfa cassettes (the one you have the box for but no cassette) and they were made of coloured plastic which matched the card inlay (i.e. lilac for C60, green for C90). Hope this is of interest.
Excellent info, thanks. I'll look for the "vintage cassettes" site later when I have a break. I've already shot and edited a couple of follow-up videos on these cassettes. I like to be ahead with my videos. It's a shame, because I could have included your info in one of the follow-up videos. I've pinned this comment so it will be at the top instead. Thank you.
Those Memorex mrx2 oxide cases are so cool. Fortunately, I have one in my collection. Unfortunately there is no tape in it. No tape, no shell. I don't know where I got it from. I've had it for a long time but I would liked to have an original mrx2 oxide tape in it. Nice oldies catch.
I posted a comment about your video with some infos that could help others but youtube keeps deleting it. I don't know what's wrong. Nice video anyway.
Really? They are cheap and easy to buy in England, although getting more expensive as time goes on. Did you have eight-track in Australia? We didn't really use that format here, so almost every car had a cassette player for many years, maybe that's why they're so common here.
I did. I left feedback in the driver. I also spent half an hour trying to contact them or find a way for them to mark my address as "do not leave parcels outside" but that's impossible to do. They don't want contact from people.

Yeah lots of old and unknown tapes to me. Cool to see :D

Don't buy one, not until you've seen my next cassette video.
Thanks for sharing

Thank you. RUclips comments are broken sometimes. And they don't allow people to post links most of the time.
Cassettes are very hard to find these days

Make sure you complain to Evri about the poor service. They probably wont do anything but you should at least make them aware.
