Crazy Priced Vinyl On EBAY

i think ltm re-releases has taken the edge off the prices for the obvious things but poppyheads 7" went for £70 not long ago. sarapoly was stupid too, so the oddments continue to rise.

yeah i did well when i sold my sarapoly (which i got for free, it's not the sort of thing i would have paid money for)

I wonder how Heavenly vs Satan does these days, I think that one was v expensive before the K reissue came out.

Crazy alright, I bought this same single for £2.99 on Ebay a few months ago. Stupid Nirvana collectors, Kurt's not even on this record, dumbasses!

It's all in the presentation!

those go team 45s are pretty rare regardless

I dunno, I've got 5 of them, and they were all cheap. The only one that's normally insanely expensive is the one Kurt actually was on.

Think about it, there'll be tons of "Go Team" ads there right now that aren't the Kurt band, but the 'rah rah' bunch. Add the word "Nirvana" and it'll come up on loads of people's automatic search notifier.

Uh the winning bidder was called 'thegoteam' so maybe it's just a K Records dork w/ too much money

Nah look at their previous auctions - all Nirvana & Marilyn Manson!

:-O

Eeek yeah, I saw that one too. God. Makes me wish I picked up the (too expensive) bootleg of it that was around this year.

man that guy bought a lot of eekspensive records lately

do you guys get like an ebay digest of expensive record auctions??? I WANT TO SUBSCRIBE

I just always look at "iamthewitch" dude's auctions. anybody know who he is?

the witch

i like to search "psych" in records and sort by highest priced first.

And me, I do the opposite, sort of...

what's really funny is to come across something that sold for loot then find the exact same LP and condition from someone else unbid upon.

do you guys get like an ebay digest of expensive record auctions??

The way I do eBay porn with records is to just type "rare" in the search line, sort highest price first. If you're registered with eBay you can look at completed auctions and that's where you get to see the mega-bucks that are paid for Northern Soul singles. Good God. If you are doing it with CDs it's better to put "OOP" in the search line (out of print). That's where you see what you could make if you owned Mosaic box sets and regional rap CDs from the '90s. Wow.

^^ if a seller is so desperate as to drop "rare" keywords, then it's almost always a turd. ergo, you are the enemy.

i've occasionally used 'rare' where the item is actually pretty scarce but i can see that it's really a pretty pointless thing to do

anyone want to buy 5000 country and bluegrass LPs?

i do. how much?

465 pounds sterling and almost six days left in the auction?! holy shit! should i start buying metal records?

A bit late to start now! Some 90s black metal vinyl sells for even more than that btw

Skot, where do you keep all this vinyl?

i don't know what i would do with a sudden 5000 records actually. put them in the basement for now.

i'd think of something. there is always room. 5000 records isn't THAT much.

5000 might be lowballing it. Took me five of the U-Haul record boxes (1.5 cu ft) to pack up the As and Bs of one section.

so who are you selling them to?

No clue yet, I just have to move the records somewhere so I can start fixing up my grandmother's house so she can sell it.

I'm trying to find out what's in there and if it can be sold in sections or if we need to find a bulk buyer.

Listen to every record, then eat it, then blog about it.

Some of the '70s bluegrass vinyl is awesome - paisley shirts & bellbottoms, invasion of the evangelical hippies.

Milo, if you see any records on the County label, I collect 'em. It was a label that reissued 78s in the sixties/seventies/eighties; tons of great stringbands, banjo pickers, hillbilly blues. a quick google search they're still going today, doing CDs, but it's the old LPs. Don't know if yer wantin to break up the collection at all, of course, but I for one am mighty curious as to what's in there. Where are you located, again? For some reason I feel sure it's not close to New York, which is a shame.

This ain't bluegrass:

I called Doug Murray, no response. Homeboy better holla back.

Holy shit, that number is Long Beach … could this Doug Murray be the same as the Swedish one who plays for the Sharks? He actually owns the company Ubertap as well (http://www.uberdispensing.com/).

He also keeps good company:
