Ha - no eccentric billionaire bites for donnaz424's 'must have' opera collection, so she's relisted - and upped the starting bid by another $150,000 ....

two months pass...

someone else, possibly two people, dumping their sarah collections on ebay, £51 and counting for sarah 1, £36 for London Weekend on vinyl, and, most surprisingly for me, £17.50 for Sensitive (which is available on *at least* half a dozen other releases. not that i'm complainig because i have a spare...)

― Koogy Yonderboy (koogs), Wednesday, 6 September 2006 16:30 (nineteen years ago)

London Weekend will probably go for at least £50, and Pristine Christine will probably fetch a ton. It doesn't matter that they're available elsewhere now, it's record collectors. Although Heavenly Vs Satan's Ebay value did drop a lot when the K records CD came out, to be fair.

― Colonel Poo (Colonel Poo), Wednesday, 6 September 2006 20:44 (nineteen years ago)

i wouldn't mind having the first orchids 7" on sarah, but as you noted, the tracks are readily available from LTM and... it's got a coffee stain on the insert! hahahaha

― fortunate hazel (f. hazel), Wednesday, 6 September 2006 21:44 (nineteen years ago)

i have that, i'll probably sell it soonish

my point is that wolfmother are complete shite and i'm sure they don't belong in any of those descriptions

― electric sound of jim [and why not] (electricsound), Tuesday, 26 September 2006 00:17 (nineteen years ago)

I agree. But clearly the seller wants a lot of hits on his auction.

$40? Are you kidding me?

I have the 7'', maybe I should sell it if it's really going for this much...

― The Brainwasher (Twilight), Thursday, 1 February 2007 22:08 (nineteen years ago)

should i sell my Muddy Waters 'Warsaw Sessions Volume 2'? the sleeve of my copy is a bit fucked up, but it can go for up to $250 apparently?

― Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 17:40 (eighteen years ago)

― ian, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 17:43 (eighteen years ago)

I love the "lately"

You would think the world was picked over at this point to make that kinda digging fruitful .. thrift stores, estate sales, etc. but I guess not!

― Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 17:45 (eighteen years ago)

people die every day, stormy.

― scott seward, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 17:56 (eighteen years ago)

yes, but how many record collectors die everyday, worldwide? 10? 50?

― ian, Tuesday, 19 June 2007 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

they don't have to be hardcore collectors. just a few old hippies will do.
