Just search for 'Paul C' and you'll find very average rap records going for stupid stupid prices.

$499 for a Supremes greatest hits is a bit much...I wouldn't pay a cent over $350.

do you think he meant to charge 4.99 and misplaced the decimal point?

Amateur(ist) (Amateur(ist)), Monday, 9 January 2006 07:19 (4 years ago) Permalink

Probably, but it's fun to think he's trying to pass it off as some northern soul rarity or something.

Dom iNut (donut), Monday, 9 January 2006 08:24 (4 years ago) Permalink

The seller already listed this LP once at $499 so it doesn't seem like a pricing mistake; could have at least dropped it to $399 on the relisting!

It seems like the Supremes seller took heed of our comments; he's relisted yet again, but now a mere starting bid of...$299.

That Ed Banger 7" isn't that expensive, really. The "Ain't Bin To No Music School" 7" usually goes for about that much. I got lucky with that one.

There are loads of punk singles that go for hundreds of pounds -

Bad Brains - Pay To Cum
Crime - Frustration
a lot of singles featured on Killed By Death/Bloodstains comps (not all of them are that rare though)

I'm quite happy with my bootleg reissue of Pay To Cum, no need to splash out $1000 on an original copy...

re: beach house - considering how well their last two records have done, they seem like prime candidates for reissuing. i've made the mistake of holding onto OOP vinyl of recent vintage for too long and the reissues will take the original vinyl from $100+ down to $15.

The first Beach House LP has just been remastered and re-pressed: http://www.heartbreakbeatrecords.com/mailorder.htm

This version is on black vinyl, so yours should hold some value. But still, now seems like the time to flip it.

I've seen a CD recently on Amazon (can't remember what title) up for $2,000 from an independent seller. I think it was a decimal place error though. Not sure.

Evan, Sunday, 6 June 2010 23:27 (2 months ago) Permalink

Found the details:

Beautiful Dreamer - Adam Ant - Notes:
The single that got away! Its planned release was abandoned after poor sales of Wonderful. 4,000 copies were initially pressed of each CD single. All were destroyed...well almost all. Only 7 copies of CD1 are believed to exist as a result of them being sent out as promo copies after the radio promo CD supplies were depleted. They were recalled, and not all made it back. Only TWO copies of CD 2 are known to exist. The second of which turned up on eBay and was sold with a winning bid of £2120

Mark G, Sunday, 6 June 2010 23:55 (2 months ago) Permalink

Looking at the "Completed Listings" search is a fun way of finding crazy music that actually sold. This is the highest priced CD sold in the last 3 months (I think it goes back 3 months)
