Old Amateur Vids from the Late 90s

I've been searching the internet, but can't seem to locate some things I clearly remember, so I thought the skilled people here could help.

Back in the day of dial-up connections, there were a decent number of amateur videos made with handheld cameras that started circulating. In addition, when we actually still went and rented videos from stores, there were different companies producing amateur videos on VHS - and many truly were amateur videos. There were tons of these different tapes, as I recall, but I can't find any of that kind of content anywhere.

There are a handful of online availabilities from that period, like a ubiquitous "greek amateurs from the 90s" that shows up in searches constantly. What I'm asking is - leads on where some of those old amateur videos from the mid-late 90s ended up, and are any available online?

I remember those in fact I used to have a load of them on VHS I have transferred most onto DVD. There used to be a company based in Holland that sold a series of genuine amateur tapes, if I remember correctly at one point they had over a hundred of them in their catalogue. I think the company was called hard core cafe or something like that. There was also an English company that produced a series called "amateur blues" but I think that was more a mixture of pro/am stuff. I agree there is hardly any genuine amateur stuff from the 80's 90's available.
