He/she (OK, he) will never listen to it so that's irrelevant.

sorry i was late on this but the store is even worse than they are on ebay...it seems like it's basically just a way for them to clear out all the garbage vinyl they acquire when they buy out collections and estate sales...so they ebay the valuable stuff...then put out all the beat up shit and charge like $6 for dollar bin shit....

so yeah i guess if you want to spend like $5 on a beat to shit Tommy Bolin record that doesn't even have a sleeve it's the place to go

Ha ha. Was considering visiting this place last time I was in mpls, but was way turned off by their $$$ vibe. Thankfully there's way better record stores there - Hymies for one.

yeah hymies is nice, total old school weirdo joint

i really love roadrunner for value, smaller but really well curated and always a lot of turnover and new shit...

Am I nuts, or is this excessive?

(Especially when he's got 6 available. Really?!)

is that something that people want really badly? i don't even know. i had that book that they used for that cover. i think someone actually bought it because of the album cover. should have priced it higher i guess.

Yeah, Oneida had at least a box of these last time they toured the UK.

SOLO AVANT GARDE DRONE LONG BEARDS OOP YOU NEED THIS

Question & Answer
Q: "you write: You should buy this even though you probably don't deserve it. It will give you something to aspire to in life. And might actually make you a better person." I assume you means th3 potential buyer is a complete and utter duffer because actually the well-tuned piano is rather dull and tedious. it only retains its mystique by being almost totally unavailable. listen to it! give me charlemagne palestine anyday.
A: I have listened! Not to this copy. To another copy. On top of a mountain that was haunted by the ghosts of Ichabod Crane and Pat Metheny. The wind howled and the wine flowed. I learned how to pray that day... But, yeah, Palestine is a major block rocker. No doubt about it.

i'd say it will end between $240-275, but if a bidding war starts, who knows.
i forget what i paid for mine. i traded a rare john cage LP on dial and like $20 or something.

not everything is a campfire (ian), Friday, 26 November 2010 02:18 (2 years ago) Permalink

i'm gonna say upwards of $400 -- popsike has them going for more than that, even recently.

see that kid in the bottom right? thats Akon!

dope record though, needs a reissue

Well, "Path through the forest" is alongside "My father's name was dad" The Fire and The Flies' "Not your stepping stone" in the list of highly valuable psych singles. (Although that's a heck of a bid-up!)

That other "One in a million" one I don't know, but also: whew!

Mark G, Wednesday, 23 February 2011 10:07 (2 years ago) Permalink

nice little collection

fredereek hernando >>>>> path through the forest. worth every cent imo

vag vag vag (electricsound), Wednesday, 23 February 2011 11:47 (2 years ago) Permalink

Yeah One in a Million were awesome. Their song "No Smokes" is crazy, kind of a freakbeat/psych precursor to Clark Hutchinson's stuff like "Free to Be Stoned" or "Death, the Lover." Um, vocally, mostly.

Crazy Priced Vinyl Hair On EBAY

Damn this thread seems so....different without ilxor (ilxor), Friday, 25 February 2011 17:46 (2 years ago) Permalink

(not sure where else to post this one, but) a few weeks ago i sold a kinda-sorta-little-bit-hard-to-find Merzbow thing on ebay, then was getting the shipping label ready when i noticed the buyer: J3ff M4ngum... pretty cool, huh?

I once sold a book on eBay to Glenn Mercer. But not that Glenn Mercer, dammit.

clamwich (staggerlee), Friday, 11 March 2011 03:56 (2 years ago) Permalink

Ha, I sold a CSN&Y album to Allan Clarke. I presume it wasn't the same guy...

Mark G, Friday, 11 March 2011 11:46 (2 years ago) Permalink

my brother sold a bunch of rare electro 12"s to Aphex Twin a few years ago. a couple of weeks later he used some of the money to buy some fancy speakers for his home studio. after googling the name of the seller he found out that he'd bought them from Aqua. haha!
