oh cool, thats the one i dont have!

man you shoulda just KEPT that trimble, it rules!

psych nah idve sold it and bought a reissue probly

I would have, knowing what I know now. This was late '90s, not much online about him yet. Great stuff, and he has a new record out too. Wasn't mentioned in price guides of the day.

I like this eBay bucks thing but fuck making me wait til the next month to use them.

This KInd Of Punishment's Beard of Bees on Ajax is up on ebay!! Wish I could bid on it...

the seller also has a lot of other interesting records too.

Wow, I really can't find anything on that Graf Spee record he is also selling. Looks interesting though!

oh brother

when I click on that link all of the "recommended" albums beneath it are Peter Frampton LPs

I shoulda taken out a bank loan to buy stuff out of the Ajax catalog back in the day.

Seriously! I remember when I received their catalog that said the store was closing, then afterwards the catalogs stopped. I owe that guy so much though.

Don't know if anybody's interested but this is up for sale, really great record

what should we list my wife's original copy of GBV's 'propeller' for?
should we put a reserve? do it buy-it-now?

roll the dice. start it at ten bucks. live dangerously.

i never have understood setting a reserve on records, it usually discourages me from bidding. i prefer the seller to start the record at either the base amount they want for it or starting cheap and letting people decide what they want.

i kind of agree on no reserve.

skot: don't want to start it low because, tbh, it's only "worth selling" if it's gonna help us significantly pay off our vet bills/other debts. so i don't want to list it at $10 and have it only sell for $200, even though that's a lot of money, ya know

tbh, i think we might just put it up buy it now for $1000 and see what happens lol.

mike rep cover art.

there are gbv records that sell for money???

propeller was ltd to 500 copies with hand made covers... routinely sells in the 700-1000 range. sometimes more, sometimes less, but that's kinda the average i think.

i wish i still had my records from high school, white bee thousand, vampire on whatever, devil between my toes

records, man.

there was this one gbv 45 i had with a great song called shooting star, i think, it was good

here's the exhaustive (and exhausting) gallery of Propellers: http://www.angelfire.com/pq/propellerclub/

which cover do you have, ian?

i've always made good money on gbv stuff. steady sellers. like pearl jam.

it's not mine, it's helen's, but it's a mike rep drawn cover. like the one on that website but without the red.

man. I don't have anything with a Mike Rep drawn cover, but I *do* have an original of GBV's 'Sandbox'. On whatever label they released it on. I bought it direct from Scat ... after the either the 'Grand Hour' EP or the 'Vampire' LP came out, Scat started selling a bunch of GBV backstock early LPs through their mail order distro catalog. I loved the 'Grand Hour' thing so much that I punted on a copy of 'Sandbox.' Didn't buy the others because I was a broke youngin'. Later I got the 6lp box set, so ever since I've had two Sandboxes.

seems like I could hope for $50?

anyway Ian , I'm with Jordan .. reserves = bad! I personally don't bid on 'em. waste of time

Jordan!

sorry !!! JACOB! my bad bro, i'm way tired

That's amazing, how did she come into possession of one of the original Propellers?

my wife was in indie rock band in the nineties, worked at kim's in manhattan, worked at matador rekkerds for ages.

/braggin

you guys should go see bunnybrains. maybe. coming up. nyc. wish i could go. to hang.

speaking of matador. and 90's bands. and "lo-fi" records.

unless your wife hates my brother. i can never remember who hates him...

siblings, what you gonna do, right?

your wife is cool ian

lol no helen likes dan, so does pat. last time i saw bunnybrains p.g. six was the opener.

no fair playing Somerville on a night i cannot attend.

Saw The Strapping Fieldhands play at Cake Shop a year ago or something and I think me and my girlfriend were the only ones who showed up that weren't opening for them. Or at least it was practically that way.

"Hi I got the lp and the record itself have alot of spots on it, on both sides. Im gonna have it cleaned and see if they come out. "

i wonder abt stuff like this. people not using precise words so that i have NO IDEA what this guy means by 'spots.' iirc the record was NM. i think maybe he means dust particles??

i have no idea if anyone is gonna bite at this price, but it's gotten 150+ views since noon...

think it might be a tough sell to start it so high but good luck man!! I shared your link on Facebook. I think before you mail it off I should come over and visit it. soak in the aura.

have you thought about trying to post it to a GBV fan forum or something? like is this thing still active? http://www.gbv.com/postal.html

or maybe the Matador msgboard
